About

As a neurodivergent or queer individual in today's society, you feel pressured to conceal your true self, anxious about potential rejection if you express yourself authentically. You often mimic others to fit in, hide your true self, and strive for perfection to gain acceptance. Simply for being yourself, you're labeled as "weird," "strange," or "different," which deepens feelings of isolation. Whether you're exploring your neurodivergence, gender, or sexuality for the first time or grappling with understanding your needs, there is a path forward from surviving to thriving.

Clients seek me out for my lived experience as an autistic, ADHD, and transgender therapist with expertise in neurodivergence and queer identities. They aim to understand their autism, ADHD, or queer identity deeply. I provide radical affirmation, supporting them in accepting and exploring their true selves, advocating for them every step of the way.

The right therapist for you listens without judgment or normative expectations. Working together, you'll release long-suppressed tears and gain 'aha!' insights into your past and present. Email me for a free 15-minute consultation to see if I'm the right fit for you!
