For some reason, you just don’t function like everyone else does. You're anxious when there’s a break from your usual routine. People often have to tell you things multiple times before you understand them. You feel overwhelmed in crowds or anywhere with too much sensory stimulation. Maybe schoolwork comes easily to you, but social interactions are confusing. Neurodiversity is a good thing, and everyone’s brain is wired differently. But it’s hard to fit into a world that isn’t made for people with brains like yours. Sometimes, you think about how easy life would be if you could just be “normal.”
As a neurodivergent therapist, I can help you and your family navigate the challenges of daily life. In therapy, we’ll build the social, emotional, and mental skills you need to function as your best self. Learn to thrive, even in a world where you may feel like you don't belong. Because you DO belong – you’re valid and worthy and deserve a good life!
Understanding and befriending your brain and nervous system can be challenging. It takes time, courage, and commitment, and I’m here to help you every step of the way. Using tools like movement, music, breathing, and mindful awareness, you’ll develop the resilience to face any obstacle. Call or email now for your free consultation, and let’s get started!
