Providing Trauma Informed and Neurodiversity Affirming Telehealth in Ohio

Looking for a therapist who actually gets it?
As a late-diagnosed neurodivergent therapist, I offer trauma-informed, affirming care for autistic, ADHD, Complex PTSD, and other neurodivergence—especially for those who were diagnosed later in life, as well as those who identify as LGBTQIA+.

This is a space where your identity is honored and your experiences are celebrated. We’ll work together to find creative, personalized ways to support your needs, reduce overwhelm, and build more ease and confidence in your day-to-day life.

My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and deeply rooted in self-compassion. We'll explore what matters most to you—including the intersection of neurodivergence with gender, sexuality, trauma, relationships, and identity.

I also offer WPATH letters for trans and nonbinary adults, along with supervision and consultation for fellow clinicians—all grounded in gender affirming, neurodivergent affirming, inclusive care.

Services and Rates

LGBTIA+ Affirming Therapy (including assessment for WPATH letters): I provide assessments and letters for gender-affirming surgeries in line with WPATH guidelines. I know the process can be overwhelming and unfair—I’m here to make it as smooth, respectful, and supportive as possible.

Trauma informed Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy: I don’t push productivity “hacks” or try to “fix” who you are. You are not the problem—systems that weren’t built with us in mind are. Therapy with me means honoring your needs, not forcing you into harmful molds.

Complex PTSD and Trauma Therapy: Struggling with insomnia, panic attacks, or overwhelmed by all the options for feeling better? Together, we can sort through what actually helps and find tools that support your sensitive nervous system—so you can feel more grounded, calm, and in control.

Clinical Supervision for pre-licensed professionals (LPC, LSW, MFT): See more here. Neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+ or BIPOC providers are prioritized. No intake required for supervision. Rates may be subject to sliding scale for therapists who are part of marginalized groups.

$150 per 60 minute session, $170 for initial intake
