Neurodivergent Therapy in Belmont, MI
Masking can drain you in everyday Belmont life. Maybe exhaustion hits near the M-44 corridor or along Jupiter. Or you feel overstimulated at Belmont Center when last-minute changes disrupt your rhythm. We use those actual moments as reference points so progress appears in the places you move through daily.
My style is direct, no-nonsense, and practical. We keep sessions steady, work at your pace, and focus on tools you can use after work meetings, before a commute, or during quiet evenings at home. The aim is less masking, clearer self-understanding, and more room to be yourself.
How I Help With Neurodivergence in Belmont
Reduce masking and emotional dysregulation with body-based techniques you can use anywhere

Practice direct communication for setting boundaries and asking for accommodations at home or work
Use Brainspotting and HeartMath to regulate your nervous system and trust your intuition
My Approach
I combine body-based regulation skills with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to work with masking, executive functioning challenges, and emotional dysregulation. When it fits your goals, I use Brainspotting to access the deep brain where automatic responses live and help you unmask at a neurological level. I also utilize HeartMath to help you realign with your body and trust your intuition rather than societal conditioning. We set realistic goals, check what actually works for your brain, and keep adjustments sized for a normal Belmont week.

FAQ
Do I need to live in Belmont to meet with you?
No. Many clients split time between Belmont, Rockford, and Grand Rapids. The Belmont focus helps us tie skills to your actual routines and environment.
What will we focus on first for neurodivergence?
We start with understanding your patterns and how masking shows up in your daily life. Then we build concrete tools for nervous system regulation, executive functioning, and communication that you can use before work, after social events, and during downtime.
Do I need a formal diagnosis?
Not at all. Many people self-identify as neurodivergent, and you'll find only affirmation here. Whether you have ADHD, Autism, sensory processing differences, or OCD, what matters is that you recognize yourself in these experiences.
Is online an option if I cannot drive down?
I offer secure telehealth when appropriate. If online is not a fit, we meet in person in Suite 303 on East Beltline.
