Many of my clients would describe themselves as sensitive people in a world that was not built for them. You may be looking for a therapist who appreciates that your anxiety might show up in therapy. You may be looking for someone who spends the time building a connection with each client on their own terms. You may need someone willing to step into your world and to think outside the box. If you relate to any of this, we might be a good fit. Many of my clients have trialed other therapists and are looking for someone with lived experience of neurodivergence. I have a casual, conversational and authentic style.
I have a flexible approach and aim to provide techniques and skills that fit the person in front of me. You are more than the issues you are struggling with, so we will also utilize the strengths you already have. I am trauma-informed and believe the therapeutic relationship we form is one of our most valuable tools.
My perspective is informed by my lived experience as a neurodivergent. Diversity and cultural humility are core values in my work. Feeling safe in therapy is important and offer free 15-min consultations so we can meet before you commit to starting therapy. Consultations can be booked through my online booking link, found by clicking the 'My Website' button.
