clinical specialties
Though I work with a variety of clients, there are some areas of practice particularly close to my heart
Working or studying in academia requires navigating a unique culture not found in other environments. Academics must balance specialized demands and expectations with the realities of daily life. You may be at a crossroads between remaining in academia or seeking a career in a different sector. Graduate students, who often also teach, encounter extra pressures as they are also expected to focus on their own learning – an expectation which can create stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. I help clients engaged in academic systems figure out what they want for their life and support them in creating a path toward those goals.
Academics
Medical training is difficult. Medical students, interns, and residents encounter unpredictable schedules, little time to meet basic needs, and the harsh realities of learning a healthcare system with intense demands and few resources. The stakes are high and it’s easy to feel alone. Maybe you question if you are in the right career. I help individuals in medical training programs and residencies adjust to the demands, confront imposter syndrome, and find ways to manage moral injury to prevent burnout from the healthcare profession.

Late Diagnosed ADHD, Audhd, and autistics
High masking and late-identified ADHD, AuDHD, or autistic individuals have high rates of overwhelm and burnout. You may be frustrated that you can’t push yourself as far as you used to. You want more sustainable approaches to balancing the demands of daily life. You can break out of the all-or-nothing modes of operating that you’ve used for so long. I help high-masking, late-identified individuals learn how to build lives that understand and accommodate neurodiversity.
