About My Clients

My clients are individuals and couples who are are recovering from burn out and deep hurt or tired of "just getting by", and are ready to understand themselves better and learn new skills to improve their lives and relationships. I help them to navigate a neurotypical world with acceptance, practical skill development, and tips and tricks that truly work. I love to help couples navigate the impact of neurodivergence on their relationship and understand and support each other more effectively.

My Background and Approach

With over 7 years of experience, I bring my professional expertise, curiosity, and my own first hand experience with neurodivergence to create a non-judgmental and productive therapeutic environment. I primarily use Emotion Focused Therapy and borrow from the Gottman Method and Solution Focused Therapy in my practice. Working with me will mean zooming out to understand your patterns and relationship blueprints, and zooming in to develop practical skills and systems that support healthy daily living and relationships in the here and now.
