Great to meet you!

I have a passion for working with neuro diverse and gender diverse patients due to my personal family dynamics. I always try to empower my patients to be autonomous and directly involved in decision making and treatment plans.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am laid back and take an informal, casual approach to my practice. I always try to prioritize understanding, compassion, and patient comfort,
