My approach comes from years of working with women who are tired of feeling stuck in the same patterns. Over time, I realized that lasting change happens when therapy has both direction and flexibility. That’s why I created the Merlyn Method. During our first few sessions, we’ll gain a deeper understanding of your story, attachment style, relationship patterns, and the beliefs that may be keeping you stuck. From there, we create a clear plan so you always know what we’re working toward. I draw from EMDR to help you heal painful experiences, attachment theory to understand how your relationships have shaped you, Internal Family Systems to help you understand the different parts of yourself, and narrative therapy to help you rewrite the stories that no longer serve you. And when life happens, we can always make space to slow down and process what’s most important that day. My goal is to help you experience real and lasting change, not just temporary relief.

When you work with me you can expect warmth, honesty, and a space where you never have to mask, explain yourself, or shrink to be understood. I show up as a whole person, not just a clinician behind a clipboard, and I bring both my professional expertise and my own lived experience as a neurodivergent person to every session. My style is collaborative and direct, meaning I am not just here to nod and reflect back what you say. I will offer real insight, practical tools, and genuine partnership as we work through the things that brought you here. Sessions with me are affirming, grounded, and free of the kind of clinical distance that can make therapy feel cold or transactional. Whether you are deep in the grief of a late diagnosis, burned out from years of masking and overachieving, or simply trying to finally understand why your brain and body work the way they do, you will be met with curiosity and care rather than judgment. My goal is not to fix you because you are not broken. It is to help you understand yourself more fully and feel at home in who you are.

I like to cut to the chase (with care) and help you figure out why you keep repeating the same unhelpful patterns. I BELIEVE: (1) having an open mind to learning will get you far. I'll share evidenced-based education that shifts your perspective to help your relationship last. (2) my role as your therapist necessitates direct but compassionate call outs of behavior that is not secure functioning and damaging to the partnership(s). (3) therapy doesn’t have to last forever, but your relationship(s) can.

My counseling style is warm, honest, and collaborative. I create a safe space for clients to feel heard while also gently challenging them to recognize patterns, gain new perspectives, and move toward growth. I believe healing requires both compassion and accountability. My approach is trauma-informed, authentic, and focused on helping clients create meaningful change rather than simply managing symptoms.

I believe therapy should be a collaborative, supportive, and empowering process. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and tailored to each individual's unique needs and experiences. I draw from evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family systems approaches, and sensory-motor and arousal regulation techniques to help clients build insight, develop coping skills, and create meaningful change. I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and supported as they work toward their goals. Together, we will identify strengths, address challenges, and develop practical tools to improve emotional well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life. My goal is not only to help clients navigate current difficulties but also to foster long-term resilience, healing, and personal growth.

Informed by systems-oriented and attachment lenses, my approach holistically considers all aspects of your lived experience. Identifying the beliefs, coping mechanisms, and relational and/or behavioral patterns that keep you locked in place is foundational to the work we will undertake together. Reviving your innate agency to create change is another. I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where you are free to be authentically yourself and speak your uncensored truth. Through our collaborative alliance, we will discover your therapeutic goals and devise the means to achieve them.

With a background deeply rooted in neurodivergent-affirming and trauma-informed care, my approach is collaborative, gentle, and entirely centered on you. I don’t believe in a "one-size-fits-all" model of healing. Instead, I combine evidence-based clinical expertise, such as specialized CBT for ARFID and safe trauma recovery techniques, with a genuine respect for your unique brain, sensory needs, and lived experiences. I work from the belief that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide the structure, safety, and tools you need to unpack old patterns, navigate a world not always built for your brain, and heal on your own timeline. Whether we are walking through an assessment or navigating therapy together, you can expect an environment free of judgment or pressure to mask. Together, we will build a practical, compassionate path forward that honors who you truly are.
