Individual Psychotherapy: Affirming & Holistic Therapy

---

 Neurodiversity-affirming therapy celebrates and validates the unique strengths and perspectives of neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD, Autism, and other neurological differences. This approach fosters a deep understanding of how neurodivergence shapes your experiences and helps you embrace your authentic self. Sessions focus on providing practical tools to navigate challenges such as sensory sensitivities, executive functioning difficulties, and communication needs, while challenging stigma and promoting positive identity development. 

 Trauma-informed therapy prioritizes your safety, trust, and empowerment as you navigate the effects of trauma on your life. This approach acknowledges the impact of trauma on the body and mind while creating a supportive environment where you can process and heal at your own pace. By integrating practices like grounding, emotional regulation, and self-compassion, trauma-informed therapy helps you build resilience and reclaim a sense of control. Whether your trauma is rooted in personal experiences or intersects with neurodivergence and other marginalized identities, this care is tailored to meet your needs with compassion and understanding. 

For clients seeking to integrate their spiritual beliefs into the therapeutic process, I offer a spiritually grounded approach. This holistic therapy respects your unique spiritual or faith-based values while exploring how they can support healing, growth, and self-discovery. I also support clients who have experienced spiritual or religious abuse or trauma by offering a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to navigate their experiences, find healing, and reclaim their sense of self. 

Sessions may incorporate mindfulness, meditation, or reflective practices tailored to your personal beliefs and preferences. The goal is to create a holistic, affirming space where you can connect with your inner wisdom and align your spiritual journey with your mental and emotional well-being. 

 Mindfulness-based therapy incorporates mindfulness practices to help you cultivate present-moment awareness, reduce stress, and improve emotional regulation. This approach is particularly beneficial for individuals seeking greater balance in their lives or facing challenges with anxiety, depression, or executive functioning. With neurodiversity in mind, mindfulness-based therapy respects your unique sensory and attentional needs, offering customized strategies that promote self-awareness, relaxation, and resilience. 

 Relational therapy explores your relationships and attachment patterns to foster emotional connection and secure bonds. This approach helps you understand how past experiences and attachment styles influence your current interactions, empowering you to build healthier and more fulfilling relationships. Whether you're navigating challenges in personal or professional relationships, or working through relational trauma, this therapy focuses on strengthening communication, trust, and emotional intimacy, all while celebrating your individuality and fostering meaningful connections. 

I offer support for clients prescribed ketamine as part of their therapeutic treatment for a mental health condition.  Ketamine integration therapy provides a safe, affirming space to process your experiences and insights from ketamine sessions, helping you incorporate them into your broader healing journey.

Whether you’re taking ketamine for trauma, depression, or other challenges, our work together will focus on grounding, reflection, and aligning your experiences with your personal growth goals and well-being.  Please note that I do not provide ketamine treatment itself but focus exclusively on integration therapy to help you process and incorporate your experiences into your healing journey.
