Maybe you’ve been struggling to hold it all together, whether it’s been for the last few weeks, months, or years. You’ve been juggling so many different roles & responsibilities that you’ve forgotten what it’s like to rest & you’ve forgotten who you truly are.
Or maybe you’re a parent - watching your child trying to keep their head above water - but they seem to be weighed down by difficulties with school, friends, self-esteem, or communication, & you don’t know how to help them.
Maybe all that’s needed is a compassionate listener. Or maybe what’s needed is a different perspective & some accountability. Either way, I can help.

Every individual deserves to be seen, understood, and appreciated. My clients are teens and adults navigating emotional, social, or behavioral challenges often feeling unheard or stuck. Many are neurodivergent or part of the LGBTQIA+ community, seeking a space where they don’t have to mask who they are. They want growth, peace, and the freedom to live authentically. My unconventional approach helps them explore new perspectives, break free from “shoulds,” and embrace their own path to healing and fulfillment.

My passion is working with people who are coping with transitions and navigating changes in their life. Change, even positive change, also comes with loss. Sometimes this can be difficult to navigate and cope with. I am motivated by the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of others and support them in navigating change, stress and identifying how they can FEEL better. I am driven to creating spaces where people can thrive, heal, and grow. My hope is to foster a supportive and safe environment where people of all ages feel brave enough to express and achieve their personal goals.

Education and Learning Disabilities Therapists
How effective is treatment for learning disabilities?
When initiated early and tailored to a child’s specific needs, learning disability treatment can be quite effective at helping a child cope with their disability, though its exact efficacy may depend on the severity of symptoms and whether comorbid disorders exist. Less is known about treatment initiated in adulthood, but it is certainly possible that an adult with a learning disability will see some improvement—or at the very least, identify workarounds and accommodations that could make symptoms less burdensome in day-to-day life.
When should someone seek treatment for learning disabilities?
It’s best to seek treatment as early as possible. Because learning disabilities often go unnoticed until a child starts school, or even until they’re a few years along, regular check-ins with teachers and doctors can help parents determine whether children are meeting milestones and keeping up with peers or whether an evaluation for learning disabilities may be warranted. And although earlier is always better, it’s never too late to be evaluated for learning disabilities and to seek treatment.
What happens if learning disabilities are left untreated?
Undiagnosed and untreated learning disabilities can be a source of significant frustration and shame for a child, who may feel that their challenges stem from a lack of intelligence or willpower. Such feelings can trigger low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety, which may push a child toward risky behaviors, including substance use. In adulthood, untreated learning disabilities can interfere with career success, and lingering feelings of self-doubt and shame can negatively affect someone’s mental health.
Are there medications for learning disabilities?
Currently, there are no medications designed to treat specific learning disabilities such as dysgraphia or dyscalculia. However, someone with a learning disability may be prescribed medication for a comorbid condition, such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD, which may have positive downstream effects on their learning disability; for example, a child with both ADHD and dyslexia may find that they’re better able to focus on their reading exercises after being prescribed a stimulant medication.
