When you’re neurodivergent and mixed race, queer, or trans, it can seem impossible to feel seen and accepted for all of who you are. Whether you’re starting to wonder now as an adult if you might be neurodivergent, are deep in burnout after exhausting years of masking your internal struggles, or are frustrated by people in your life expecting you to conform to neurotypicality – you deserve to be seen and supported as your whole, intersectional, neurodivergent self.

As a queer, biracial, ex-vangelical, and late-diagnosed Autistic, I know what it’s like trying to contort yourself into spaces, relationships, and boxes that don’t fit. No one can survive that isolation, weariness, and shame forever – and you don’t need to keep trying.

Therapy with me is rooted in a foundation of unconditional acceptance, compassionate curiosity, and acknowledging sociopolitical contexts. Instead of forcing rigid or unrealistic plans on you, we’ll collaborate to customize an approach that affirms your unique identities and lived experiences. To get started, schedule a free consultation call with the “book now” link above or on my website (livingoakcounseling.com) and, together, we can figure out a freer way forward.
