Hello

I am a Certified Level 3 IFS practitioner and educator specializing in the embodied experience of autism. I'm also an autistic. I hold a Masters Degree in Embodiment Studies. My thesis research is the foundation for a book I am writing with Martha Sweezy, to be published by New Harbinger in 2025. I am a doctoral student in the Somatic Psychology Ph.D. program at the California Institute of Integral Studies, studying autistic umwelt, or, what it's like to be an autistic. I work with all neurologies but particularly enjoy working with my fellow autistics.

When not working, I love to be with my family and assistance dog Magnus, preferably outdoors. I am a wife and mum to three kids, one of whom has autism. I come from a family of autistics, including an undiagnosed mother whose story inspires my work. I enjoy long periods of silence, darkness, staring at repetitive shapes, hiking and running, paddleboarding, teaching, soft clothing, talking to the dogs, flowers, being my own boss, learning, watching Stranger Things, listening to songs on repeat, writing, notebooks, spending time side-by-side with my family, texting my friends, emojis (what did we do before emojis?), talking with my clients and having as much routine and sameness as possible. I don't like tight clothing, too much light, noisy bars and restaurants, crunchy foods, extended eye contact, speaking on the phone, dirty floors, being tired, large groups, and not having time to do all the things I like.
