Do you feel like you’re trying your best but its never enough? You know that you experience the world differently from others but it’s hard to put it into words. Are you having problems with your partner, family, friends or building new connections? Having stronger relationships in your life has always been a goal but you're unsure how to do that or how to express yourself with others. You talk down to yourself and feel guilty for the things you "should have done better." You're not alone in feeling this way. If you experience anxiety, Autism or ADHD, then come work with a therapist who understands people like you!
In my practice empathy and understanding, with a bit of humor, are cornerstones. Drawing from both professional expertise and personal experience, I create a warm space where you can be authentically yourself – you never have to feel like you’re just talking to a wall. I will always hold a safe space for you to be exactly who you are, no explanation needed.
I’ve worked consistently with neurodivergent (ASD/ADHD), anxious and highly sensitive individuals since 2016 and focus on working with adults. I recognize your uniqueness, so I will always tailor treatment to your needs to help you grow and flourish. If you’re ready to begin this journey then send me an email. We’ll do it together. I can’t wait to meet you!
