Sometimes life feels harder or more confusing than it should—and it’s not always clear why. You may be navigating relationships, self-doubt, big transitions, or simply trying to keep up with your "To Do" list. I specialize neurodivergent folx and couples, and help people make sense of their experiences. I can help you find a way of living in your day-to-day that feels more sustainable and aligned with who you are. You deserve guidance, support, and space to process the difficulties that you face.
We'll collaborate together to find the tools to help you make the changes that you'd like to see. I have experience and specialized training in solution focused therapies and incorporate mindfulness techniques. I am open and honest so we can create a relationship of trust and work together to find practical solutions to what seem like unsolvable problems.
Change and healing can happen where there's trust and safety. The hardest part about change can be figuring out where to begin and deciding to do it - and that's why I'm here. My expertise draws from an advanced education and a lifetime of experiences, and together we can make the changes you're looking for. If you reach out, we can talk more about this.

My path into counseling has been shaped by a deep respect for the ways people adapt, cope, and grow. I support individuals navigating ADHD, autism, anxiety, stress, and life transitions with curiosity, compassion, and a collaborative approach that honors each person's unique experience.

You are unique and so I draw from a variety of psychological modalities. I use mindfulness techniques, tools from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems Theory, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Together we can change negative thought patterns and unwanted behaviors. My approach is considered a humanistic one, because it recognizes the individual and encourages personal choice.
