LMHCA (pending) I provide neurodiversity-affirming counseling for autistic and neurodivergent teens and adults—especially high-masking and late-identified clients navigating anxiety, burnout, sensory overwhelm, executive functioning challenges, and relationship stress. I also specialize in working with veterans; as a veteran myself, I bring an understanding of military culture and the challenges that can come with service and transition. My style is practical, direct, and supportive, focused on regulation skills, boundaries, self-advocacy, and self-trust. Sessions via teleheatlh.
I help people who are tired of “pushing through” and want support that actually fits their brain and their life. My specialty is neurodiversity-affirming counseling for autistic and neurodivergent teens and adults (especially high-masking and late-identified clients), and I also specialize in working with veterans.
If you’ve been holding it together for a long time—getting through the day while feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or quietly burned out—you’re not alone, and you’re not “too much.” A lot of the people I work with have spent years masking, minimizing their needs, or living in survival mode because it was the only way to function.

I work with autistic/neurodivergent teens and adults and veterans who feel burned out, anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in survival mode. In early sessions, we clarify what's driving it and build a practical plan—regulation tools, realistic routines, boundaries, and support that fits your brain. Many clients feel noticeable relief within a few weeks and steady gains over time.
