I believe sometimes all we need is for someone to listen to us without judging to help find answers. In my office, the client is completely involved in determining the course of therapy. You can expect an initial session to be of gathering personal history, health history, and family of origin history. We will work together to see if we can begin to identify the problem and what you might want to do about the problem. We try to establish how we will know when this has been accomplished, how often to meet, as well as any arrangements for payment.

Maybe you've received diagnoses that don't make sense to you, or you've been told your struggles are "all in our head" and you just need to "try harder." Many adults with signs and symptoms of ADHD & Autism share this experience. They are folx who find themselves burnt out and stretched thin after decades of wearing a mask of inauthenticity, trying to fit themselves into the mold that neurotypical society says is the "right" way to be. But what if I told you that's not true? That there is no wrong or right way to be your authentic self in the world, regardless of what you may have been told throughout your life.

Life is too short to just wait for things to get better. When you’re experiencing anxiety or depression, it feels isolating, defeating, sometimes even shameful. It’s so exhausting and what worked for you in the past isn’t working anymore. Regardless if you've experienced a job loss or retirement, a new marriage or recent divorce, a complicated mid-life crisis, or addiction to social media or gaming. Whatever the reason, you know you need things to change, and you need them to change NOW. You can achieve a sense of well being, direction, and happiness. Don't wait any longer...the help, support, and tools you need are available here.

Maybe you've been hearing about stepping into "main-character energy" or becoming the hero/heroine of your own story. A voice nags, quietly but persistently, that life is passing you by or reminds you that you really "should" do that thing you've been meaning to do. You long to be in alignment with your core values and feel proud of the person your unique life's journey has shaped you into. Perhaps you'd simply like to be able to identify what your dream life looks like. Maybe the idea of becoming more attached to your growth than your suffering intrigues you, you're just not sure how one makes that shift. What's an author to do?

It is a great honor to walk beside you on this journey. As your therapist, I accept you as you are and not as you should be. Although I believe that therapy is a self healing process , I am here to hold space for you and provide tools to assist you as you navigate your life experience. In 2019, I transitioned into Community Mental Health which is where I have practiced different therapeutic models with individuals from all walks of life. Therapy is not a one size fits all experience which is why I adopt many therapeutic lenses and tailor them to each client.
