I specialize in supporting clients with neurodivergent minds as well as individuals who are dealing with ADHD, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, and trauma.

Is Your Pain Taking Over?

Do you find yourself constantly battling feelings of anxiety, questioning your self-worth, or struggling to communicate with your partner? Does it seem like your past experiences continue to haunt your present, affecting your ability to trust or feel safe in relationships? Are you or your loved one navigating life as a neurodivergent individual and struggling to feel understood or supported? Do you often feel overwhelmed by sensory overload, struggle with organization, or find social interactions exhausting? Many individuals with ADHD, autism, or other neurodivergent conditions experience these challenges daily, but help is available. If you’re nodding along, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to face it alone.

I believe that healing starts with understanding. Together, we’ll work to uncover the root causes of your emotional pain—whether it’s unresolved trauma, relationship conflicts, or a major life transition. Using proven therapeutic techniques, I’ll help you build the skills to manage anxiety, improve communication, and reconnect with your sense of self.

    Therapeutic Approach:

    I believe in a client-centered, holistic approach that blends psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), somatic therapy, and emotionally focused therapy (EFT). My goal is to help you reconnect with your authentic self, regulate your nervous system, navigate life’s ups and downs with greater ease, and cultivate stronger, more meaningful relationships.

Is Neurodivergence Affecting Your Daily Life?

  • Do you find it hard to keep up with routines and deadlines or manage emotions?

  • Is sensory overload making everyday environments, like work or social gatherings, feel overwhelming?

  • Are you or your child struggling with focus, executive functioning, or emotional regulation?

These experiences can feel isolating and frustrating, but they don’t have to control your life. I believe that with the right tools and understanding, you can embrace your neurodivergent strengths while managing the challenges. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, autism, or another form of neurodivergence, there is hope for greater peace, clarity, and connection.

How I Can Help You:

  • ADHD and Executive Functioning: Learn strategies to improve time management, focus, and organization. Together, we’ll work on building systems that align with how your brain works.

  • Emotional Regulation for Autism: Do you struggle with understanding or managing emotions in social situations? I offer compassionate support and tools to help navigate emotions and develop stronger social skills.

  • Sensory Processing: For those sensitive to sensory input, I can help develop coping mechanisms and strategies to manage sensory overload in various environments.
