About My Clients

I specialize in highly educated neurodivergent adults over 25 who struggle with social/familial ostracism, anger, homophobia, transphobia, and advocating for their needs, all of which manifest as low- to medium-support needs autism, ADHD, and other learning disabilities.

My Background and Approach

I have an extensive background in psychotherapy, as demonstrated by receiving a Master of Social Work from New York University, a clinical fellowship in gestalt psychotherapy from Gestalt Associates for Psychotherapy, and experience with neurodivergent adults in public health and private practice. As part of my psychotherapeutic journey, I became drawn to gestalt psychotherapy, a present-oriented therapy that helps clients understand how their repetitive ways are thinking, feeling, sensing, experiencing, and communicating are getting in the way of what they want in life. For me, gestalt therapy provided a vehicle to co-create relationships based on authentic relating, kindness support, love, and curiosity, Essentially, gestalt therapy has allowed me to become more present, aware, and guided by love as life unfolds. With love, curiosity, kindness, and support as part of my existence, I am ready to meet clients wherever they are to begin the healing journey. I honor all of you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Spiritually, I am blend of Tibetan Buddhism and indigenous wisdom. Through my spiritual journey, I have discovered that love is key to life.
