About me

I specialize in: Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy | Trauma-Informed Care | Domestic Violence Recovery Support

I provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy, trauma-informed counseling, and domestic violence recovery support for individuals and families seeking a safe, compassionate, and empowering space to heal and grow.

Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy (ADHD, Autism, OCD & More)
I specialize in supporting clients across the spectrum of neurodiversity, including those navigating: ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder)| Autism spectrum differences| OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder)| Sensory processing challenges| Executive functioning difficulties| Burnout and masking fatigue
As a neurodivergent-affirming therapist, I focus on honoring your unique brain wiring rather than trying to “fix” it. Together, we build practical strategies for emotional regulation, sensory needs, relationships, self-advocacy, and sustainable growth.

Trauma-Informed Therapy & Domestic Violence Recovery
If you’re coping with PTSD, complex trauma, or the impact of emotional or physical abuse, you deserve care that feels safe and empowering. I provide trauma-informed therapy for: Survivors of domestic violence and intimate partner abuse| Childhood trauma and attachment wounds| Ongoing unsafe or high-conflict relationships| Intrusive memories, flashbacks, and hypervigilance
Our work moves at your pace. I am deeply passionate about creating safety, choice, collaboration, and empowerment guide every step of the therapeutic process.

Therapy for Life Transitions & Personal Growth
You don’t need a crisis to begin therapy. Many clients reach out because they want: Greater self-understanding| Healthier boundaries and relationships| Support through career, identity, or family transitions| Space to process and reflect| Tools for stress management and emotional resilience

My Therapeutic Approach: I integrate research-backed modalities with a compassionate, mind-body perspective, including:
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Somatic and body-based techniques
Trauma-informed stabilization and resilience work
By combining cognitive, emotional, and physiological tools, we create lasting change that supports both nervous system regulation and meaningful action aligned with your values.
I believe that when we create space for our thoughts and share our burdens, meaningful and empowered change becomes possible. I deeply respect the courage it takes to seek support and the trust placed in the therapeutic relationship.
If you’re ready to explore neurodivergent-affirming therapy, trauma recovery, or support through life transitions, I invite you to reach out. Let’s connect and begin building a path toward healing, resilience, and authentic growth—together.
