Therapy for Highly Sensitive, Neurodivergent & Creative Adults
When Your Work Is Inseparable from Who You Are
You may be here because your work is not just what you do — it's tied to who you are.
Artists, musicians, performers, writers, and multi-hyphenates often live with a particular kind of uncertainty: creative cycles, financial instability, visibility anxiety, self-doubt, and the pressure to make something meaningful while also surviving. You may hold multiple roles, identities, or callings that don't fit conventional narratives — and you may have spent years trying to explain yourself to people who just don't quite get it.
For many highly sensitive (HSP) and neurodivergent adults — including those with ADHD, autism, or twice-exceptional profiles — this complexity runs even deeper. Your nervous system may process the world with an intensity that is both a gift and an overwhelming daily reality. Overstimulation, emotional flooding, rejection sensitive dysphoria, difficulty with transitions, or feeling perpetually out of sync with the pace of the world around you may all be familiar.
Overwhelm, burnout, and decision fatigue might be a constant part of your day-to-day. It can be hard to find support that takes all of this seriously — without trying to flatten you into something more manageable.
You May Have Learned to Cope By…
Tying your worth to output, recognition, or momentum
Pushing through burnout to stay relevant or afloat
Questioning whether your path is "legitimate"
Masking — performing neurotypicality to fit in, at great personal cost
Carrying the weight alone because few people truly understand your vision or your wiring
Swinging between hyperfocus and shutdown, creation and collapse
Over time, this can flatten joy, deepen self-doubt, and strain your relationship to your work — and yourself.
What Therapy Can Offer
In therapy, your creative life and your neurology are not treated as side notes.
We explore identity, sustainability, boundaries, meaning, and the emotional realities of creative, non-linear, and neurodivergent lives. This work isn't about forcing productivity or manufactured clarity — it's about helping you stay connected to yourself while navigating complexity, choices, and coherence on your unique path.
For neurodivergent and highly sensitive clients, this may include understanding your own nervous system patterns, developing self-compassion around the ways your brain works differently, and untangling internalized shame from years of being told you were "too much," "too sensitive," or "not enough."
Your path doesn't need to be justified here.
A Therapist Who Understands Multi-Passionate & Neurodivergent Adults

My work with artists, creatives, and multi-hyphenates is informed by both formal clinical training and lived experience.
In addition to being a licensed therapist, I am an actively practicing, internationally exhibited multidisciplinary artist with advanced graduate training in both art and mental health.
I understand firsthand the realities of sustaining creative work alongside multiple roles, income streams, identities, and obligations, often within systems that undervalue creative labor and were not built for neurodivergent minds.
This dual perspective allows me to support clients navigating burnout, imposter syndrome, perfectionism, ADHD and creativity, late autism diagnosis, visibility anxiety, financial instability, and identity fragmentation — with nuance and without judgment. My approach honors creativity not as a hobby but as a core organizing force in many people's lives. Therapy becomes a space to build sustainability, nervous system resilience, and self-trust, without asking you to abandon your creative, neurodivergent, or multi-hyphenate identity.

FAQs
-
Therapy is different for everyone. Some people come in for a few months to work through something specific, while others stay longer for more profound healing and ongoing support. Together, we’ll check in about your goals and pace as we go. You never have to commit to a certain number of sessions up front. This is your journey, and we’ll move at the rhythm that feels right for you.
-
Sessions are 55 minutes long and via telehealth (secure video or phone). Sessions are spacious and collaborative. I’ll invite you to share what’s been coming up for you—emotionally, mentally, and physically—and we’ll follow what feels alive in the moment. Sometimes that looks like talking through life patterns or recent challenges; other times it might include mindfulness, visualization, or gentle somatic awareness. My role is to help you deepen your relationship with yourself and your body’s wisdom.
-
I currently only offer secure virtual sessions to clients located in California via video or phone. This allows you to connect from home, your studio, or wherever you feel most comfortable.
-
You can schedule a free 15-minute consultation directly through my website. This is a chance for us to connect, see if we’re a good fit, and answer any initial questions you might have. There’s no pressure to commit; it’s just a space to get a sense of what working together could feel like.
-
My current session rate is $250.
-
I’m an out-of-network provider, which means clients pay directly and can request reimbursement from their insurance if they have out-of-network benefits.
-
I have both weekly and bi-weekly spots available. Feel free to ask about this during your consultation.
-
I Have A No Cancellation Policy
Once an appointment is scheduled, it is final and non-cancellable, with no refunds or rescheduling for missed sessions.
However, I offer one "freebie" per year for unannounced cancellations due to unforeseen circumstances. Beyond that, any breaks or time off must be discussed and agreed upon in advance.
Please note, there may also be times when I will take time off for holidays or personal reasons, and I will always give notice when this occurs. Thank you for your understanding and commitment to your mental health journey.description

As an artist and therapist, I see creativity as a powerful tool for healing and transformation. We might use creative visualization, journaling, storytelling, ritual, or symbolic imagery to help you express what words can’t. You don’t need to consider yourself an artist; you just need to be open to imagination as a form of wisdom.
-
Yes — if that’s something that resonates with you. Many of my clients come from diverse spiritual paths, including earth-based, ancestral, witchy, or mystical traditions. Together, we can weave in ritual, energy work, or intuitive practices when they feel supportive.
-
You are absolutely welcome here. My approach is never about pushing any belief system. Whether you’re atheist, agnostic, or simply not interested in spirituality, therapy with me can remain entirely grounded and practical. The core of our work is curiosity, self-understanding, and growth — not dogma. You get to decide how we shape the space.
-
I bring together psychology, art, and spirituality to support the whole self — body, mind, and soul. My background as a licensed psychotherapist, artist, and witch allows me to bridge evidence-based therapy with ritual, imagination, and embodied wisdom. This isn’t one-size-fits-all therapy; it’s a space for profound transformation that honors who you truly are.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your healthcare provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit WWW.CMS.GOV/NOSURPRISES or call 800-985-3059.
