My Approach
As a neurodivergent clinician of multicultural heritage I draw from my experience in education, community mental health, and disability advocacy to provide trauma-informed care which honors the unique experiences of each client.
I integrate a number of approaches such as Gestalt, DBT, and the Social Neurodivergent/Disability Model to offer support that is grounded, relational, and deeply respectful of your lived experiences.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, burned out from masking, or struggling to make sense of a late diagnosis or complex identity. I offer a space where you don't have to explain yourself to be understood.

With over 15 years of experience serving the neurodivergent community, I bring both professional expertise and lived understanding of Disability Advocacy and Rights experience. My background is in education and I have had the pleasure of beginning my career as a counselor in community mental health.
My training is in Gestalt, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and the Social Neurodivergent/Disability Model. I am also trauma informed and work with clients from a relational lens which enables me to support clients through emotional reflection and exploration of their challenges. I walk alongside clients to identify needs, clarify goals, and co-create adaptive systems that honor their unique experiences, blending evidence-based methods with compassion. -
