About

Let's be honest: reaching out to a therapist is awkward. You are choosing a stranger from a directory and hoping they will understand how your brain works. I want to make that gamble feel a lot smaller. I work with neurodivergent adults, and I mean that word as a description, not a diagnosis dressed up in nicer clothes. My framework is cognitive behavioral: we catch the beliefs running the show, lay them on the table, and decide together which ones get to stay. I started out in crisis services, where I learned to stay steady no matter what came through the door, and that steadiness comes with me everywhere. I have watched too many smart people apologize for their own minds, and helping them stop is my favorite part of this job. Expect real talk, plenty of energy, and genuine optimism, because I have seen how much can change in a year. If any sentence here made you exhale, that is your cue. Send the awkward first message; I will handle the rest.
