People with ADHD, Autism or other developmental challenges are often suffering from burnout, lack of support and isolation. Group Therapy replenishes a sense of belonging with the additional resources and strengths each member brings into the setting. The magic of our differences can transform our well being.
Trauma focused experiential therapies, such as psychodrama, are my favorite ways to help clients embody change instead of simply talking about it. These methods bring play, imagination and creativity back into the forefront of lives. My education is in the Depth and Jungian tradition of psychology, which seeks wisdom at the root of issues to inspire meaningful change.
I have a long history of working with highly sensitive people and families. I love exploring neurodivergent trauma with those who experience Autism level 1(Aspergers, high functioning, low needs, self diagnosed, etc.) and/or ADHD. This is especially interesting when it intersects with challenges of parenting, relationships and career. My thesis explored Pathological Demand Avoidance (or persistent drive for autonomy) and its impact on romantic couple attachment. I am neurodiversity affirming and am AuDHD myself. I am part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and use an anti oppression lens in my work.
