I primarily work with Autistic individuals of all ages. My work is focused on supporting my clients through either the process of their identification as an Autistic person or understanding what that means in terms of their past, present, and future. I help clients learn ways to mitigate the mental health impact of living life as an Autistic person, in particular through the creative process, but also by learning more about how and why their brains and bodies experience the world the way they do.

Living in a constant state of worry? Always thinking of what’s ahead or things that happened in the past, rather than what’s happening in the now… Maybe you feel like you’re drowning in a sea of thoughts, looking for the nearest life preserver to help you stay afloat. When things get tough, you feel like you’re in it alone and no one can possibly understand what you’re going through. Maybe you’ve tried all the avenues to inner peace and nothing seems to be enough.

There’s something sacred (and a little terrifying) about coming to this place where you realize you’ve gotten a little too good at this everything’s fine, nothing to see here facade. You’re longing for something different. You sense there’s more for you and your story and your relationships, but you don’t quite know how to get there. The good news is, that something more is absolutely available to you. The hard news is, it means going to places in your own heart, story, and body that have probably been avoided for some time and for lots of good reasons and learning how to offer yourself a new kind of compassionate care and kindness.

When certain parts of our life feel out of control, it creates stress that impacts other areas of our life. Seeking help can feel like a chore. Not only do you have to find a therapist that feels like a good fit, but you have to tell your story to a stranger. I know all of this, and I want to make it feel easy, productive, and worth your time. I enjoy helping all people, but some of my refined interests include traumatic stress, attachment injuries, SUD's, and life transitions. I can help adults, teens, kids, couples and families. In my work with teens, I have interest and experience in helping adoptees and transnational adoptees.

You might've woken up this morning hoping today would be different. Perhaps you’d finally join that yoga class you’ve been eyeing, or meet a friend for coffee without worrying about passing out or losing control. But as the day went on, that familiar sense of unease returned, and every thought and sensation felt like an emergency. You’ve gone to the doctor (more than once) only to be told that it's “just anxiety.” You’re trying SO hard to calm your mind and nothing seems to work. You feel frustrated, misunderstood, and downright exhausted.

You’re no stranger to achievement. You graduated near the top of your class, carved out a successful career for yourself, and continue to kill it in your professional life. Problem is, when you feel so anxious and unsure of yourself, it’s hard to enjoy the life you’ve worked so hard to create. You struggle to build meaningful relationships because you can never relax enough to be the real you around others. Your work suffers because you’re constantly worrying that others are secretly judging you. And though you’ve practically perfected the art of hiding your distress from others, it leaves you feeling utterly exhausted and alone.
