Therapy that works with your mind—not against it.
How I Work
Neurodiversity-Affirming, Trauma-Informed, Nervous-System Aware
Your neurotype is part of who you are. I don't see autism, ADHD or AuDHD as something to fix. Trauma affects safety, relationships, and your nervous system. Safety, choice, and collaboration are central. When you're overwhelmed, "calm down" isn't helpful. We explore practical, sensory-friendly ways to respond. Many clients come to therapy exhausted from masking, experiencing burnout or overwhelm, adjusting to a later-in-life diagnosis, struggling with anxiety or self-worth, or living with the effects of trauma. My approach integrates neurodiversity-affirming psychotherapy, trauma-informed practice, and EMDR—tailored to your mind, nervous system, communication style, experiences, and goals.
