HOW I CAN HELP

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY Talk through what's heavy, sort out what you want, and build a life that fits the person you actually are. GENDER-AFFIRMING CARE Support for exploring, questioning, transitioning, and living your gender, at whatever pace is yours. NEURODIVERGENT-AFFIRMING Autistic, ADHD, both, or still figuring it out. Sessions shaped around how your brain works: sensory needs, direct communication, breaks when you need them. GAME-INFORMED THERAPY The worlds you love can hold real skills. We can use games, characters, and quests to practice coping, connection, and change.

YOU GET TO SET THE PACE.

LET'S FIND WHAT WORKS FOR YOU.

I offer direct, warm, down-to-earth therapy for adults 18+. My focus is gender-affirming and LGBTQ+ care, neurodiversity, chronic illness, and identity exploration, with room for whatever lights you up, whether that's a 200-hour RPG save file or a barn at sunrise.

YOU MIGHT BE IN THE RIGHT PLACE IF…

You've masked for so long you're not sure what's underneath.
You're questioning, transitioning, or settled in your gender and want support living it out loud.
Therapy has felt like a test with rules nobody explained.
Games, stories, or fandoms are where you feel most like yourself.
You want a therapist who says what they mean and checks in about what's working.
The news and the political climate are wearing you down.
