My Story
I Know This Territory From the Inside
I didn't find this work by accident. I came to it through my own life — through the experience of parenting a neurodiverse child and learning, in real time, how differently two people can perceive the same moment. Through being in a neurodiverse relationship and discovering how much love can coexist with genuine confusion and disconnection. And through my own neurodivergent journey, which gave me a very personal understanding of what it means to move through the world with a brain that doesn't always fit the mold.
"I know what it feels like to love someone deeply and still feel like you're speaking completely different languages."
Those experiences didn't just shape who I am — they shaped the kind of therapist I've become. Someone who doesn't just understand neurodivergence theoretically, but who has sat in the discomfort, the grief, the relief, and the hard-won growth that this work requires.
I became a therapist because I wanted to offer what I wish had been available to me: a space that truly sees both people in the room, that doesn't pathologize difference, and that holds space for real change.
Parenting a Neurodiverse Child
Raising a neurodiverse child taught me more about attunement, flexibility, and unconditional love than any textbook ever could. It also showed me how profoundly a family system can shift when one person is finally understood.
Navigating a Neurodiverse Relationship
Being in a neurodiverse relationship gave me deep empathy for both sides of the dynamic — the longing for connection, the frustration of miscommunication, and the beauty that becomes possible when two people truly commit to understanding each other.
My Own Neurodivergent Journey
My own experience with neurodivergence has been one of the greatest teachers of my life. It has given me genuine empathy for clients who are still finding their way — and a deep belief that difference, understood, becomes a source of strength.
