You tell yourself you should be able to work, socialize, or get out of bed, because sometimes you can. You rest just enough to feel human again, only to find yourself back in the same struggle. Maybe other therapists told you you're too self-aware, but I see your insight as strength. You are the expert on yourself - my job is to help you reconnect with who you truly are, beneath all the layers of overachievement, the people-pleasing, and the constant push to fit into a world that wasn’t designed for you. This journey is about coming home to yourself, without the “shoulds” or the pressure to conform, and finding a path forward. As a late-diagnosed AuDHDer, I know what it’s like to go through life feeling misunderstood. My work is grounded in lived experience and clinical insight. My approach centers on deep listening, radical compassion, and honoring the complexity of your story. Using your values, strengths, and even your special interests, we’ll build a plan that works for you. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (#292341) in Kentucky and a Nationally Certified Counselor, under the supervision of Chelsea Clements, LPCC-S (#272603). I hold a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health and Military/Veterans Counseling. I am pursuing a Doctor of Education in Neurodiversity at Johns Hopkins University. You deserve support that sees the person behind the mask—not just advice to deep breathe or “cope better.” You’ve carried internalized ableism, high expectations, and burnout long enough. If you're ready to feel truly seen and supported for who you are, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Are you ready to get started?
