About My Clients

Maybe you’re navigating life as a neurodivergent or LGBTQIA+ adult and feel like no one truly “gets it.” I’m here to tell you—you’re not alone, and there’s a space where your unique self is celebrated.

My Background and Approach

My approach is practical, down-to-earth, and flexible. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help reframe unhelpful thoughts, mindfulness techniques to find calm and balance, and a strength-based framework to highlight your unique abilities. Together, we'll build resilience and create a life that aligns with your goals and strengths. I’m here to help you understand how your brain works, figure out how to express your emotions in ways that feel right, explore your identity, and find accommodations to make life easier. Together, we’ll create a life that supports who you are, and navigate social connections. We will find tools for you to manage big emotions, boost self-awareness, and feel empowered. A lot of my clients start feeling lighter and more in control within the first month, and the progress just keeps building from there.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

You might be a good fit with me if you feel like something’s “off,” are struggling to keep up with expectations at work or school, or have a hard time staying organized and getting things done. We might work well together if you identify as LGBTQIA+ and/or neurodivergent, which may include autism, ADHD, and sensory processing difficulties. Essentially, I am a neuro- and gender-affirming therapist, who works with people who want to be seen for who they truly are, and who are looking for support in a way that respects and honors their true self.
