About

If you are ADHD and/or Autistic, you’ve probably spent many years trying to fight your own brain and force yourself to act “normal,” but find this never works in the long run. Or perhaps you have someone in your life who is neurodivergent, and are struggling meet their needs and your own. You may experience painful emotions, difficulty understanding yourself, and frustrating personal relationships. Navigating life can be overwhelming when you're neurodivergent, but I firmly believe there is hope, and I want you to feel hopeful as well. As a neurodivergent person myself, I help clients learn to understand how their unique brains work, and to achieve their goals. I have 5+ years of experience working with ADHD and Autistic children, teenagers, adults, couples, and families. I have experience working with neurodivergent women and members of the LGBTQ+ community. I started doing therapy out of a belief that just because your brain works differently doesn’t mean you’re any less deserving of happiness, meaning, and success. If you or someone close to you is struggling with managing ADHD and/or Autism, contact me to learn more about how we can work together on helping you thrive.
