I work with teens and adults across Texas who are neurodivergent (ADHD, autistic, highly sensitive, or unsure), especially those feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or like they’ve had to “push through” life in ways that don’t fit. Many come to therapy after it hasn’t worked before. Together, we slow things down, reduce overwhelm, and build ways of functioning that actually match how your brain works—without shame or pressure to be different.
I offer neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed therapy for ADHD, autism, and highly sensitive clients. We focus on emotional regulation, burnout, and practical strategies that fit your brain. Telehealth is available anywhere in Texas.
You don’t need a diagnosis or the “right words” to start. If you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, or feel like nothing has quite worked, that’s enough. We can go at your pace and figure out what actually helps—together.

My approach is both neurodivergent-affirming and trauma-informed. That means we don't assume your brain is the problem. Therapy with me is flexible and collaborative (not rigid or scripted), adapted to how you think and process, supportive of non-linear conversation, and focused on both understanding and practical tools. You don't have to "do therapy the right way" here.
