As a deaf/disabled, queer, neurodivergent art therapist, my goal is to provide laid-back and engaging art therapy for clients who struggle to feel fully seen. I provide therapy for under-served communities, with a focus on resolving issues related to queer life, neurodivergence, relationships, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I work with clients who are struggling with thoughts and behaviors they don’t understand, who are exhausted from relational conflict, and those seeking self-acceptance and answers to life’s great existential questions. I am bilingual in English and ASL and enjoy working with hearing, HOH, and Deaf clients.

Hi, I specialize in Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy! Navigating life in ways society deems acceptable is not only difficult, but draining. Adjusting your lifestyle to reflect what others think is right can keep the peace but at the expense of yourself. Add on neurodiversity, like ADHD or autism, and life can feel even trickier. It can feel like you’re the only person without the cheat codes to life. Maybe you struggle with executive functioning skills, like organization and time management, or feel overwhelmed by tasks like grocery shopping. Life in general just seems to take more out of you than it does others.

Hi there! I work with folx who want to improve emotional regulation in order to better cope with big feelings like anxiety, anger, and frustration. And who want to improve relationship dynamics with their family and friends. The world is bright, loud, and there always seem to be people telling you what to do. For those who have experienced trauma or who are neurodivergent (autism and ADHD), this can lead to ongoing states of overwhelm, burnout, and meltdown. Using trauma-informed, strength-based, and narrative practices, I can help you understand how the stories you tell about yourself and the world impact thoughts and feelings.

Do you feel stuck? I know how hard it can be to reach out for help, from the energy it takes just to make the appointment to the frustration when you leave the office without relief. Navigating the medical system can become its own source of trauma, on top of what you’re already dealing with managing day-to-day life at home and work. I'm familiar with the challenges of high-functioning autism, late-diagnosed ADHD, and even chronic medical conditions like Lyme, EDS, fibromyalgia, and cancer. It is NOT all in your head. Even if other providers haven’t had much to offer, I’m confident that together we CAN improve your quality of life.

From the outside, your life looks “fine”, so people say you have no reason to feel anxious or depressed. Inside you feel stuck, numb, or like you’re living on autopilot. You might be LGBTQIA+ or questioning, and notice you edit yourself around family, friends, or partners. In my Pittsford office and online, I love working with people who are tired of performing and curious about who they really are. As a queer therapist, I know what it’s like to bend yourself to others’ expectations and then choose something different. You want space to explore your values, gender, and sexuality, and to build a life that feels like your own.

Trying to keep up with life when your mind is full of noise can be exhausting. Whether it’s due to OCD, suspected autism or ADHD, or complex trauma, rumination and intrusive thoughts can keep you from completing tasks, making confident decisions or staying present in relationships. Part of you wonders, “What is wrong with me?” while another part knows you deserve more than constant self‑doubt and comparison. You want a space where you can drop the act, say the messy stuff out loud, experiment with art as well as words, and slowly build a life that actually fits who you are becoming, at a pace your nervous system can handle.

Do your feelings feel huge and confusing, like you're supposed to "have it together", but you're overwhelmed inside? Maybe you're autistic, ADHD, queer, trans, or questioning, exhausted from masking and meeting everyone else's expectations. In my Pittsford art therapy office and online across New York, I support neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ folx who want to understand their brains, set boundaries, and build relationships where they can be fully themselves. Together we gently unmask, explore your identities, and create a life that actually fits your values.

Hi! I'm an art therapist that specializes in working with kids, teens and young adults who are neurodivergent (autism, ADHD) and/or struggle with anxiety and depression. I especially enjoy working with clients who connect through anime, gaming, cosplay, fantasy worlds, and Jungian concepts as a way of understanding themselves and expressing what’s going on inside. Along with art-making, imagination and storytelling can be a powerful way to access difficult emotions, explore patterns of interaction with others and the environment, and try out new aspects of identity.

You might be queer, trans, nonbinary, questioning, neurodivergent, an educator, or all of the above—and feel like you’ve been masking your whole life just to stay safe. Maybe you carry layers of shame, anxiety, people‑pleasing, or trauma from families, schools or partners who never really saw you. You want a therapist who understands chosen family, queer joy, and survival. And one who uses art, conversation, and body awareness to help you feel grounded, affirmed, and able to take up space as your full self. If you’re ready to stop shrinking and imagine a future that feels more livable, we can explore that future together.

It's hard to be your authentic self when everyone around you invalidates your thoughts and feelings, questioning or telling you what to do and how to feel. To keep the peace you've probably tried all sorts of ways to please these people, yet you never really seem to gain their acceptance. You still feel judged and in addition you're feeling more and more distant from who you really are, assuming you even know what that is anymore. I believe we really do have the answers inside of us, if only we'd stop seeking external permission from others. I can help you tap into your authentic self, set boundaries, and live a value focused life.
