My practice supports gender-expansive + queer individuals with atypical ways of thinking, feeling + relating. I serve highly intellectual folks + deep thinkers. I specialize in working with "Talented & Gifted burn-out kids" who are in the process of unmasking. Many of my clients are late-diagnosed or un-diagnosed Autistic and/or ADHD. I work with hyper-sensitive, self-aware, highly anxious survivors of complex trauma who experience obsessive thoughts, mental compulsions, executive dysfunction, social withdrawal + sleep disturbances. View 4 Photos My clinical approach is grounded in acknowledging the harm caused by systems of oppression + structural racism. My practice centers intersectional feminist values + disability justice. I am anti-racist + LGBTQIA+ celebratory. As a therapist + human, I recognize + reflect on the privilege I hold + how this has as paved my path. As your therapist, I will create space for you to go deeper. Whatever needs to present itself will. Therapy is a space for you and it will be what it needs to be. I am here to help you figure out what that is if you aren't sure yet. I will modify my therapeutic orientation to provide the container necessary to hold and empower you.
