Many of my clients are newly identifying their neurodivergence (either through formal or self-diagnosis) and recognizing all the ways they have been swimming upstream their whole lives. My clients may also be discovering that their gender or sexuality is more complicated than they thought, perhaps that they aren't "just queer" but also nonbinary, asexual, or polyamorous. My clients seek therapy because they struggling with their current phase of life, such as settling into life after medical transition, navigating autistic burnout & chronic illnesses, or finding trauma they thought they were past resurfacing in disruptive ways.

Reaching out to a therapist isn’t easy. It can be especially difficult for those who have tried therapy and been disappointed. Perhaps the therapy process felt too passive, and you felt unsupported.

If any of this resonates with you, I’d love to help. Together, we can reflect on what has worked and not worked for you, and collaborate to make our work together helpful.

I work with teen, young adult and adult clients who are struggling to feel safe and confident in themselves or with parts of themselves.

It may lead to a struggle with feeling resiliency in the midst of life’s changes. It may also disrupt our ability to stay in the present moment. I enjoy helping clients heal from past wounds, build internal resources and find helpful ways to cope with emotions.
