You have taken a courageous step by looking for support, and I want you to feel

genuinely at home here. Whether you are navigating identity, trauma,

neurodivergence, or something you have not quite found words for yet, you deserve a

therapist who truly gets it. With over 20 years in mental health and specialized

training in LGBTQ+ affirmative care, adult autism, ADHD, and trauma, I bring both

depth and flexibility to our work. I would love to connect with you.
