Therapist

As someone who was diagnosed as neurodivergent later in life, I bring an empathetic, compassionate understanding of the unique experiences that can come with neurodivergence, including autistic burnout and sensory overwhelm.

In our work together, we’ll explore the sources of overwhelm and identify practical, sustainable strategies that support your individual needs. Together, we’ll develop manageable goals around task initiation, organization, and navigating daily life in ways that feel realistic and affirming—not overwhelming.

The world isn’t always designed with neurodivergent people in mind, and you don’t have to navigate those challenges alone. My goal is to provide a supportive, understanding space where we can work together to better understand your needs, build on your strengths, and find ways to move through life that feel more sustainable and authentic to you.
