Welcome, fellow Autists!

​

I would venture a guess that you have landed on this page because you are searching for a therapist who understands what it's like to be autistic. Perhaps you've tried working with other well-meaning allistic therapists and are tired of translating your autistic experience, hoping they will finally get it.

​

While I may not know you (yet), you may have come to the right place. As an AuDHD person myself, I offer radically affirming, autistic-centered support. I only work with other autistic folks, and I have spent years studying what it means to be autistic and how we can lead lives that work better for us in the context of a world that is, for the most part, hostile toward autistic people.

​

I am particularly well suited to work with autistic folx who are complex and have a variety of other intersecting experiences that shape their lives, including chronic health conditions (EDS, POTS, ME, etc.), ADHD, PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance / Persistent Drive for Autonomy), OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma (PTSD and cPTSD), and giftedness (2e).

​

Being autistic in our world is deeply challenging, especially if you've had to navigate it without the support you truly needed. Therapy can provide a safe space where you are understood and supported while finding ways to build a life that works better for you in a nonjudgmental, accommodating environment.

​

In addition to psychotherapy, I also facilitate an ongoing Late-Discovered Autistic Support And Learning Community, and professional development training.
