About My Clients

Let’s explore what it means to take care of ourselves and/or our children in a society that often works against our well-being. I enjoy working with neurodivergent or highly sensitive children, teens, and adults to decrease anxiety and depression while building self-worth and resilience. I take an affirming, empathic approach, focusing on your strengths and our therapeutic relationship.

My Background and Approach

I offer play therapy, parent coaching, and integrative therapy. I bring my lived experience as a mother, teacher, homeschooling parent, and neurodivergent woman to support clients and parents/caregivers. I can help you advocate and explore resources within the school and other community systems, building on strengths and supporting unique needs.
