Introduction

I grew up in Virginia Beach with a brother who is diagnosed with High-Functioning Autism. Seeing my parents find as many resources as they could for him inspired me to also help others. Looking back, I see how it was challenging at times being the older sister of someone with a disability, and I hope to help other siblings as well. Not to say I have not experienced my own struggles. I am diagnosed with ADHD myself and I currently am a mother of 3 boys ages 7, 4 and 3! The everyday struggles that come with ADHD and Motherhood are very real for me and I am passionate about helping others in similar situations. Often, us Neurodivergents go through life being told what we cannot do, but I want to help you find what you can do. All are welcome in my virtual and physical office. I am a fierce ally of the LGBTQ+ community and for fighting against racial injustice.
