Description
Do you feel overwhelmed, dissatisfied or lost? I specialize in working with individuals and partners who are highly sensitive, neurodivergent (including Autism, ADHD and Giftedness), LGBTQ+, immigrants, trauma survivors, and those navigating grief, chronic illness and new diagnoses. I understand the complexities of holding these identities and aim to provide a space where you feel seen, validated, and supported without judgment or the need to mask who you are. I draw from therapeutic modalities such as Internal Family System and EFT. I invite you to form a healing connection with me.
