About me

Tired of doing too much, trying too hard, or hiding who you are? I help adults with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and trauma feel seen, develop ways to cope and adapt, and live more authentically. My style is warm, clear, kind, and genuine. Together, we’ll use evidence-based approaches, manageable steps, and a touch of humor to help you discover what truly works for you.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin building a strong, comfortable foundation. We will talk about what brought you to therapy, what is working, what feels difficult, and what you hope will change. I will also ask about your strengths, relationships, identity, environment, and experiences with neurodivergence. Together, we will begin identifying important patterns and choose a few practical goals for our work. You can expect warmth, curiosity, honesty, and collaboration. You are welcome to ask questions, request clarification, take time to think, or tell me when something does not feel like the right fit.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach blends advanced clinical training with genuine care and connection. I see therapy as a collaborative process and help clients understand their patterns while building practical tools for change. Clients often share that they feel truly seen, understood, and supported in our work together. I bring warmth and clarity into each session to help clients feel more confident and empowered in their lives. We might explore masking, burnout, identity, boundaries, relationships, sensory or emotional overwhelm, and the expectations you have carried from others. I do not believe therapy should be about making you appear “more typical.” Our work is about understanding your needs, recognizing your strengths, and developing strategies that make your life more manageable and authentic.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with clients who feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, disconnected, or simply tired of trying so hard to fit into a world that does not always fit them. Many of my clients are neurodivergent or are navigating anxiety, identity concerns, relationships, trauma, or major life changes. They may be burned out from masking, unsure of what they need, or ready to better understand the patterns keeping them stuck. My ideal client does not need to arrive with everything figured out - only a willingness to be curious and try something different. Together, we focus on building self-understanding, communicating needs, and developing practical ways to cope and adapt. The goal is meaningful, lasting change that helps you create greater stability and direction without asking you to become someone you are not, and ultimately feel more at home in your life and more authentically yourself.

My treatment methods

Adlerian

I use Adlerian therapy to help you understand how your experiences, relationships, sense of belonging, and beliefs about yourself influence current patterns. Together, we identify mistaken or outdated beliefs, recognize your strengths, and develop more encouraging and useful ways of approaching your life.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT collaboratively and flexibly to help you recognize connections among your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and environment. Rather than forcing rigid strategies that may not fit, we adapt practical tools to your needs, goals, and natural way of processing information.

Trauma Informed Care

I approach therapy with attention to emotional and physical safety, choice, collaboration, and trust. You remain in control of what you share and how quickly we proceed. We will consider how past experiences affect present-day patterns without defining you solely by what happened to you.

Attachment-based

I use an attachment-based perspective to explore how early and current relationships may influence trust, boundaries, emotional needs, and communication. Together, we identify recurring patterns and develop healthier, more secure ways of relating to yourself and others.

Humanistic

I use a humanistic approach to create a warm, genuine, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen and understood. I believe you are the expert on your own experience. Together, we will build on your strengths, explore what matters to you, and identify changes that help you live more authentically.

She has been an incredible anchor for me through some of the hardest moments of my adulthood. She consistently reminds me of my strength, and her presence is reliably warm, grounded, and even humorous when I need it most. I feel truly seen and understood in our sessions, and her support has made a real difference in my life.
