My focus My focus is helping you deeply understand your unique brain so you can reclaim your agency. Together, we’ll uncover hidden patterns, make meaningful connections, and build real-world tools.

I view therapy as a true partnership. My job isn't to fix you, but to support your self-awareness, celebrate your wins, validate your struggles, and help you guide yourself. We’ll work together collaboratively to discover and gently break through whatever barriers are in your way. My journey to mental healthcare I have always been deeply drawn to mental health. As a neurodivergent trauma survivor, I bring lived experience to my clinical work. I feel a strong personal and professional connection to the intersections of mood, anxiety, trauma, and neurodiversity, which drives my commitment to offering compassionate, deeply affirming care. My goals for you We negotiate goals together and regularly check to see if they still fit. We’ll even explore if homework motivates you, or is just another shame trigger.
