Do you often feel lost, misunderstood, and deeply overwhelmed by the world around you? Trapped in cycles of anxiety, depression, and intense sensitivity? Are relationships often confusing, draining, and difficult to navigate? Do painful memories leave you feeling unworthy, unlovable, or ashamed? Do you struggle to express kindness to yourself despite easily expressing kindness towards others?
You are not alone.
Living in a world that often misunderstands neurodivergence and sensitivity can make it hard to understand and be kind to ourselves.
You may feel at a loss right now, but I am here to help support you, whether you are hoping to feel like you again β or you are searching for yourself in the first place.
With lived experience as a Highly Sensitive and Autistic psychotherapist, I am committed to help you embrace the best version of your sensitive self, heal from painful memories, explore who you are, and live more compassionately and authentically.

βTo be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don't try to be a magnolia flower.β
