For over a decade, I've had the privilege of guiding those in the grieving community through the process of rebuilding their lives after loss, and more recently, have been helping late-identified ADHD and autistic adults who are learning more about their unique neurotypes.

​

I bring compassion and expertise to the unique ways our brains and bodies respond to challenges. Non-pathologizing, non-judgmental, authentic.

I know what it's like to have my world turned upside down by loss. To watch my children grieve and not be able to fix it. Masking to keep everyone around me more comfortable. To feel abandoned by those I thought I could count on. Questioning everything I thought I knew. Surviving for my kids until I finally found the will for myself, too.​ 

 

No one was coming to save me; I had to save myself. In order to do that, I had so much to learn- including the fact that my children's and my undiagnosed neurodivergence had been making everything harder all along.

​

You don't have to figure it out all on your own the way I did. My autoimmune conditions are proof of what can happen when grief, trauma, and chronic stress go unaddressed for too long. It took years to understand this connection, but once I did, everything changed. I've learned to manage my conditions in ways that allow me to thrive. This work isn't just theoretical for me. I live it.

 

I can't save you, but I can help you save yourself. And if you have children, saving yourself will save them, too.
