Approach

So many times we know one thing and feel another and it’s frustrating not being able to just ‘do what makes sense.’ Our bodies and minds are so adaptive. Trying to get rid of unwanted thoughts and behaviors doesn’t always work if they still feel necessary to your brain and body on some level. We can work to create more internal alignment to support your goals.

My work best suits folks who are ready for deeper layers of healing, since it is depth-oriented and experiential, not skills-based. I do also offer support with processing late-diagnosed autism/ADHD and burnout. I welcome both your hesitations and your curiosity.
