I decided to take the journey as a therapist due to my passion in understanding situations, providing safe and compassionate spaces, and being openly honest as best we can. I like working with teens, young adults, and adults as unique individuals, and I can work alongside them through their struggles and concerns. 

My passion showed me the path to becoming a therapist in my journey learning about neurodivergent conditions with ASD, ADHD, and AuDHD, particularly because I am neurodivergent too. I am familiar with neurodivergence in multiple ways, as are other loved ones in my life. I also have a passion for Women’s Wellness and how to support women, whether that is infertility, perimenopause and relationships, because it is hard to deal with, especially if neurodivergent and even more so with a late diagnosis. 

What I also find fascinating is how taking our life journeys and learning more, both personally and professionally, impact each complex individual, because of the impact of their intense careers on their daily lives. I have gained more interest and knowledge with first responders and the military because many loved ones are in the field or are currently taking the steps to do so. 

My goal as your therapist is to support individuals with their daily life struggles, which include many concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, organization, and many others, based on their lifestyle. 

Some strategies I use for my own well-being are among the simplest yet oddly difficult to maintain, such as listening to my body to understand my emotions and thoughts. Another way is to know my limitations and set boundaries. And I cannot leave out watching tv or movies, a nice walk, and a nice cup of coffee in the morning!
