All services are delivered online via Zoom. I work with a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, PDA-informed framework, drawing on both clinical training and the experience of raising a child with a PDA profile. I do not currently offer direct therapy to children.

"You cannot pour from an empty cup."

When you are parenting a child whose nervous system is in a near-constant state of threat response, the emotional cost is real and significant. Supporting your own wellbeing is not a luxury.

These sessions provide a space that is genuinely yours, with a therapist who understands PDA from the inside out.
