My Story
I am a psychotherapist who works with neurodivergent adults and youth, navigating a world that often wasn’t built for people like us in mind. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in behavioural neuroscience research and crisis care. I now bring that background into my work with clients as we make space for complexity, contradiction, grief, joy, and growth.
About Me
I came to this work with a deep belief in the power of shared language, self-understanding, and community. As a queer, autistic, and ADHD psychotherapist, my work is grounded in lived experience as much as it is in clinical training. I know what it feels like to be misinterpreted, to burn out from masking, and to move through systems that weren’t built with us in mind. As such, I believe therapy should be a place where we can show up as our full selves, even (and especially) the messy parts.
As a Psychotherapist
I offer therapy that is collaborative, affirming therapy adapted to each client’s unique needs. My work draws from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, and somatic awareness, grounded in trauma-informed and anti-oppressive frameworks. I support clients in untangling their internalized narratives, reducing masking, and learning new ways of relating to themselves and to others.
I also facilitate some of the ACCEPT groups, where we build spaces for neurodivergent youth and adults to learn, connect, and feel less alone.
As a Care Coordinator
I help new and returning clients find the right fit for support. Whether it’s helping someone navigate our programs, choose between group and individual therapy, or find the right clinician, I’m often the first point of contact and guide through the process. It’s important to me that clients feel welcomed, respected, and seen from the first email onward.
