Hello! I am Michelle, your friendly Autistic queer therapist. I am not your average therapist. I take on a radicalized and affirming approach to mental health that are rooted in disability justice, anti-carceral care, de-centering neuronormativity, and trauma informed nervous system care. I specialize in later in life diagnosis, Autism in women (including non-binary and other queer identities), intersections of queer identities and neurodivergence, chronic illness, neurodivergent trauma, and complex trauma (c-PTSD).
You are not the problem, you are having normal reactions to a world that was not designed for your success. By using trauma informed approaches, we work on breaking down these systems and healing from them. If you are ready for a therapist that will validate your lived experience and work to dismantle systems of harm
If you are trying your best, you are doing your best. I see beautiful potential in each of my clients to embrace who they are and learn how to work with their differences. You are not someone that needs to be fixed, you are an imperfect, beautiful human. Connect with me today to find out how I can help you bounce back!
