About My Clients

Does it feel like you’re struggling to thrive in a world that just wasn’t built for you? We autistic folks know this feeling all too well, and how especially hard it hits when you’re feeling lonely, depressed, anxious, lost, or just completely overwhelmed. While I specialize in working with autistic adults and young adults, these feelings can resonate with folks from all sorts of backgrounds, and I welcome you too. Let’s walk this journey together.

My Background and Approach

So, likely your next question is “Okay, who is this lady, and how can she help me?” Well, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master’s degree in clinical psychology. I provide teletherapy for adults 18 and older and I use a variety of different evidence-based techniques, tailoring your treatment to match you and your situation. I do my best to be open about treatment and work collaboratively with my clients to get the best outcome possible. Being different is hard, but it’s also wonderful. If you’re seeking some help and support without judgement, you’ve come to the right place. My therapy is neurodivergent-affirming, trans-affirming, sex-positive, anti-ableist, anti-racist, and culturally sensitive. I strive to create a safe space where you are encouraged to be your true authentic self.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I specialize in working with autistic adults. I do not try to “cure” autism. Instead, I help autistic clients who have struggled to find a therapist who understands the unique struggles in being autistic while still dealing with life’s many challenges. As an autistic person myself, I know how hard it is to find a therapist who is autism-aware and neurodiversity-affirming. Being neurodivergent in a world created by neurotypicals for neurotypicals creates added stress, which adds to anxiety, depression, and other issues. If you’re seeking some help and support without judgement, you’ve come to the right place. I can work with you to organize thoughts, uncover goals, and help you find your own bravery and insight to come out the other side stronger, wiser, and true to yourself. I will help you tackle the present challenge, heal emotional wounds from the past, and set the stage for a brighter future. Come, be your authentic self.
