I have niche experience with folks who are ADHD, AuDHD, or have Autism. I specialize working with folks diagnosed later in life. I believe a self diagnosis is valid and I also refer clients to formal assessments. I focus on executive functioning, tasks of daily living, radical acceptance, and supporting you as you deepen your understanding about how your brain works.

10 Years Experience
Online in Minneapolis, MN Minnesota (Online Only)
Minneapolis has a progressive mental health culture with a high density of therapists, and the city saw sharply increased demand for trauma processing and grief work following the murder of George Floyd and the social upheaval of 2020. The city has a large Somali immigrant community as well as significant Native American, Hmong, and East African populations, with strong demand for therapists who specialize in refugee trauma, cultural adjustment, and identity. Minneapolis winters are long and severe, and therapists with experience in seasonal affective disorder and winter-related depression serve a real clinical need. Hennepin Healthcare and the University of Minnesota Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources alongside the city's extensive private practice community.
