About me
I am a client centered and collaborative provider who embraces the unique needs of the individual with an acknowledgement of the sociological and cultural contexts that shape us. I believe you are the expert in your own experience. I am here to provide insight, feedback, guidance, skill building and any other tools to help along your journey. My goal is to help you lean into and build your strengths and support systems, proceed with a deeper understanding of the self and ways to manage the complexities of human emotion.
As a neurodivergent provider, I have been drawn to working mostly with other people who are either diagnosed or identify with ADHD/Autism spectrum, especially other late-diagnosed adults. I am LGBTQ+ informed/affirming, sex/kink positive, and CNM friendly. I want to learn from you so we can build our own specific dynamic. And yes, I do want to hear about your special interests ;)
