I am a non-binary, gender-affirming, neurodivergent therapist working with adults managing ADHD/ASD, depression, and anxiety. I support people navigating major life transitions (gender, college, new jobs, etc) and larger institutional systems (school, medicine, families, etc). I work primarily with LGBTQ+ people, but I am open to working with adults from all walks of life! I am kink and polyamory-affirming. My mental and behavioral health approach is liberation-focused, person-in-environment, and gender-affirming. I approach this from a harm reductionist and crisis de-escalation perspective.

As a neurodivergent queer nonbinary clinician, I am uniquely qualified to work with others in the LGBTQIA community. Together we can unpack historical trauma as well as societal trauma. Clients will learn to safely connect back to our bodies and better manage chronic illnesses. We work together to rediscover joy, connect back to nature, and build healthy relationships. My practice centers decolonization and is poly and kink affirming as well as being HAES and fat positive. I enjoy helping clients build radical self acceptance and love for their bodies.

Reaching out for help when our lives become unmanageable or challenging can seem overwhelming and even insurmountable at times. Whether trauma, anxiety, or relational - healing is not linear, there is an ebb and flow we must experience to find our true selves. Sitting in transitional moments of emotion as we process memories and experiences is often considered the most important part of the therapeutic journey. It is in these moments we find clarity, knowledge, deep meaning, love, and strength. These moments become the catalyst for change.

Art therapy is not just about being able to express yourself but also being able to process and explore what is made. My role as an art therapist is to help with the processing and exploration through meeting you where you are, actively listening to what you bring into the space, and providing you with the art materials and directives that best suit your needs and where you are at. As an art therapist, it is important for me to provide a safe space, active listening, empathy, cultural humility, and open-mindedness to clients, as well as being trauma-informed.

I am a non-binary, queer person whose work is strongly informed by social justice and humility.
You’ve been wearing a mask for so long, you feel like you don’t know yourself anymore. You deserve to be seen for who you really are - to be heard and listened to. You want to feel good in your own skin and feel free and safe to be yourself in the world. What would happen if you stopped hiding? How would life be different if you felt your experience mattered as much as everyone else's? I’m here to help you hold space for these questions.

I respond best to emails :) Hello! I am your fat, disabled, queer, neurodivergent therapist based in Maryland. Being a healer has come naturally to me since childhood and navigating my own healing has led me to become a licensed clinical social worker. I deeply care for my clients, so building genuine connections with them is essential. I show up to sessions as my authentic self: witty, warm, transparent, and a little awkward. I view each client as my equal and view therapy as a team approach to navigating pain and hope.

While not exclusively the identities of the clients I work with, I specialize in working with Asian and Asian American clients, individuals with disabilities, autistic people, and trans and non-binary folks and I hope to work with you soon!.
Understanding who you are or what you are feeling is difficult when you are not even sure what words to use to describe your experience or what questions to ask yourself. Naming that is a big step. You may put on a mask to navigate the world in order to reduce the pressures you feel from society. High expectations when you were younger may make mistakes seem unacceptable. The journey to explore who you are may seem lonely. You may notice similarities in the relationships you form now with the relationship you have with your family. The early traumas in your life may be triggering you now in ways that are frustrating and upsetting.
