I have dedicated my career to treating individuals with non-neurotypical disorders. This allows me s...

Academic work gives me deep scientific knowledge of mental health care, how to forge deep relationshi...

As therapists, we work to build a genuine relationship with each client, create a safe space for discovery, and aim to understand that individual. This allows clients to safely explore alongside the therapist, and begin to see themselves with greater clarity, depth, and honesty. Good, effective therapy will likely not happen overnight (though exciting and wonderful eureka moments certainly occur along the way), and trust, honesty, and humor are invaluable to a beneficial therapeutic relationship...
