About

Welcome! I’m Andrew, and I’m dedicated to providing a safe, inclusive, and affirming space for people from all walks of life, with a particular passion for working with individuals who are neurodivergent, as well as those who are part of the geek, gamer, and furry communities. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you navigate life’s challenges with greater self-understanding, resilience, and confidence. I believe everyone deserves to feel understood and supported, and I’m here to ensure that you can explore your identity and experiences without fear of judgment.

Neurodiversity Affirming Care
As a neurodiversity-affirming clinician, I fully embrace and celebrate the diversity of human brains and minds. Whether you’re living with ADHD, autism, or another form of neurodiversity, I offer support that validates your experiences and helps you harness your unique strengths. Rather than trying to "fix" or change who you are, I aim to empower you to understand yourself better and work with your natural wiring. Together, we’ll develop strategies that respect your individuality and make life’s challenges more manageable, whether that’s in your personal life, relationships, or career.

Supporting the Geek and Gamer Community
I also specialize in working with people who are part of the geek and gamer communities. Whether you find solace in fandoms, tabletop games, or MMORPGs, I understand how these interests can be more than just hobbies—they are often an important part of your identity and social connections. I provide a therapeutic space where you can talk openly about how these passions shape your life and work through challenges like social anxiety, burnout, or feeling misunderstood by those outside the community. You deserve support from someone who truly “gets it,” and I’m here to offer that.

Working with Specialized Communities
I also have a deep commitment to supporting individuals who are part of specialized communities, whether that’s through shared interests, identity, or relationship structures. If you’re someone who expresses yourself through cosplay or the Furry community, or if you’re involved in polyamory, kink, or other forms of consensual non-traditional relationships, you deserve a space where you can talk openly without fear of being misunderstood or judged. I understand that these communities can be an important part of your identity and how you connect with others, offering creativity, support, and belonging. My approach is to honor and respect these unique aspects of your life while helping you navigate any challenges or personal growth you seek. You don’t have to compromise who you are to get the mental health support you need—here, you can bring your full self to therapy.

I’m here to support you on your path to well-being, whether you’re navigating neurodiversity, expressing yourself through your passions, or building a fulfilling and meaningful life. I look forward to being a part of your journey!
