Therapy for Bright, Sensitive, Autistic & AuDHD Teens and Adults who feel overwhelmed and Anxious
.
I work with clients who feel deeply, think deeply, and are often overwhelmed by emotions, expectations, and a world that can move fast and be tough. You may be intelligent and self-aware, yet still struggle with burnout, anxiety, masking, or feeling misunderstood.
You may:
Feel everything more intensely than others
Get overwhelmed quickly, even when you “should” be fine
Overthink conversations, relationships, or scenarios
Feel exhausted from masking or pushing through
Struggle to regulate emotions, shutdown, and burnout
Look capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed internally
Many of my clients have spent years feeling “too sensitive,” “too much,” “stuck,” or like something isn’t quite working — despite being thoughtful, intelligent, and deeply empathetic. Many of my clients have a diagnoses of Autism or ADHD, but some come to counseling to explore the possibility because they relate to the neurodivergent experience.
i offer In-person therapy in Brentwood and the greater Nashville area, with virtual counseling available throughout Tennessee and Texas
I integrate person centered, EMDR, and IFS-informed therapy approach to help process underlying patterns, safely process trauma, reduce emotional reactivity, and create lasting change.
Therapy with me is:
Practical and insight-oriented
Validating, safe, & trauma informed
Neurodivergent affirming & tailored to how your brain and nervous system function
I am neurodivergent myself and bring both lived and clinical experience, including work with families of autistic individuals across varying levels of support needs.
