Navigating today's world is not easy, and it takes courage to ask for help. I believe in meeting people where they are and providing them with a virtual space to be their authentic selves. Figuring out who we are is a lifelong journey, and I am here to support you along the way.
I am a clinical social worker and doctoral student in education. I specialize in working with neurodivergent folks, particularly those with learning disabilities, ADHD, and autism spectrum disorders, as well as co-occurring mental health diagnoses.
With the innate understanding that identities intersect, I offer a trauma-informed, strengths-based, and compassion-rooted approach. As a therapist, my lived experience with nonverbal learning disorder (NVLD) allows me to empathize with my clients whose brains might be wired differently.
