Living in a world not built for your nervous system or untangling complex relational trauma can feel exhausting and isolating. As part of the team here, I provide an authentic, low-demand, neurodiversity-affirming space where adolescents, young adults, and adults can put down the burden of masking, process painful experiences, and build a sustainable life.

 

I work with clients across different life stages, supporting teens navigating school paralysis, young adults handling high-stakes transitions, and adults exploring late neurodivergent realizations or healing from long-standing family wounds. Many of the people I partner with navigate ADHD, Autism (including AuDHD and masked presentations), sensory processing differences, and autistic burnout. Alongside neurodevelopmental differences, I support clients facing generalized and social anxiety, depression, perfectionism, chronic self-criticism, and complex developmental trauma (C-PTSD).

 

A substantial part of my relational work focuses on unpacking difficult family dynamics like growing up around parental substance use, emotional volatility, parentification, and the exhaustion of walking on eggshells. With formal training in crisis intervention (ASIST), I also safely support clients moving through severe emotional dysregulation, distress intolerance, self-harm urges, and suicidal ideation and attempts.

 

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in relational safety:

 

• Neurodiversity-Affirming and Unmasking: We work together to understand your neurotype, establish sensory accommodations, build realistic executive functioning scaffolding, and cultivate self-advocacy without shame.

   

• Relational and Attachment-Informed: Using frameworks like the Facilitating Attuned Interactions (FAN) approach and Promoting First Relationships (PFR), we rebuild internal safety, clarify boundaries, and work through identity-related grief.

   

• Evidence-Based and Integrative Skills: I draw practically from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and somatic grounding to give you tangible regulation tools.

   

Telehealth sessions with me are deeply attuned, adaptable, and human. Grab your favorite blanket, bring your fidgets, move around your space, and set your lighting however you feel most comfortable. There is no expectation to perform eye contact or maintain an artificial standard of communication through the screen. Come as you are, stay awhile, and show up entirely as yourself.
