We all belong to various systems and support systems, such as family systems; community systems; oppressive capitalistic, racist, patriarchal, and ablest systems; and more. Over the span of our lives these systems take a compounding effect on our mental health and quality of life. Building a career, attaining advanced education, establishing a supportive community of family and friends, all requires us to unpack the role of these systems on our lives. This is how we become out authentic selves.

Are you thinking something needs to change but you’re not sure what? Life can often throw major curveballs and we can be left feeling stuck, frustrated or confused. Other times life is difficult and we beat ourselves up because it seems that everyone else is doing fine. Whether you’re struggling with eating issues, worry that won’t go away, or feeling like every day is a battle, things can change for the better.

Individual clients typically work with me as they face major life transitions, deal with anxiety, and understand their authentic, neurodiverse selves. Clients will receive psycho-education around skills & somatic practices to incorporate into their life, and we will explore families of origin and choice and their impact on interpersonal relationships. Couples who work with me have a desire to proactively prepare for a long-term commitment to each other through pre-marital work, build healthier patterns of communication & boundaries, or engage in a gentle collaboration process to determine if their relationship is coming to an end.

Being autistic means existing in a sometimes perplexing and frustrating world that largely caters much more to the neurotypical brain. Over time this can manifest in a host of issues, ranging from depression and anxiety to social isolation and loneliness. The good news is that your brain possesses hidden strengths and abilities that can more than make up for these supposed deficits. To this end, I use creative approaches to draw these skills out and teach my clients how to apply their strengths in the areas where they are struggling.

Are you tired of that voice in your head that’s telling you that you’re broken and crazy? Are you struggling to move forward after a toxic or controlling relationship? Have you ever felt betrayed, hurt, or taken advantage of by a loved one? You are not alone. Destructive, controlling relationships can leave us feeling disconnected from our friends, our families, and even ourselves. Left unaddressed, the lingering effects of past trauma can touch every area of our lives. But suffering is not a life sentence, and what is broken can be put back together even stronger, braver and more resilient than before.

Hi. Welcome to my Grow professional profile! Do you ever wonder, "What is going on."? If your inner dialogue is saying, "Yes that's me, exactly, finally somebody who gets it!" I believe that nobody actually has it all together, but that there are those that pretend like they have it all together but inside feel like an imposter making it day by day and those that don't pretend and are also making it day by day. I enthusiastically invite both those who are high functioning and those who are not functioning persons seeking to improve their overall wellbeing.
