As a neurodivergent therapist, I may not always “show up” in the traditional way you might expect. You’ll often see me using fidgets, shifting in my seat, or taking breaks from direct eye contact, all of which help me stay regulated and fully present. Even if my body looks a little different in how it engages, my attention and attunement remain steady. You will always have my full presence, my curiosity, and my commitment to supporting you throughout our work together.

Maybe it's my Italian genes, or maybe it's my sense of family values.
My bias is to work to hold couples together when conflict threatens to divide them. Learning to work through conflict is the path to deep emotional bonding. Differences appear first in conflict. Accepting differences releases their creative potential and cultivates a positive emotional connection. This is the path to healing and restoration.
