Gifted and Growing
Growth and Development for Gifted Adolescents and Adults
MY EXPERTISE IS IN
Helping gifted and otherwise neurodivergent people move toward connection, liberation, and full expression.
Specialized Neurodiversity-affirming Counseling, Coaching, and Creativity for Gifted & Multi-Exceptional/Neurocomplex humans.
You’re intense, complex, sensitive, and searching. Multitalented, creative, highly perceptive. Asynchronous, twice exceptional, superstimulated. Neurodivergent. Existential in your sensibilities. You’re an outlier, and I am someone who understands that conventional norms were normed by the normal.
I’m a counselor, coach, & creative who works entirely with gifted adolescents and adults. Your neurodivergences are welcome and celebrated – that includes giftedness plus your other exceptionalities and intersectionalities.
Your neurotype is a part of a vast scattergraph of ways of being a person. Like its broader paradigm of biodiversity, neurodiversity is a naturally occurring way that nature expresses itself. This ecological, existential perspective is where I live. Learning your neurotype, its needs, the adaptations that have and haven’t worked are essential steps toward self-understanding, self-awareness, self-compassion, self-advocacy, and your fullest expression.
Neurodiversity is the reality of the species.
I am a facilitator, mentor, communicator, translator, and among the leaders ushering the neurodiversity paradigm into the mainstream.
North Carolina, South Carolina, and Connecticut residents can access licensed counseling services. Individual and Group Coaching are available worldwide. Beginning sometime in 2026, I will be able to provide counseling services to clients in up to thirty-eight states. Read whether your state is included here.
Counseling
You’re a differently wired gifted person, and you need a counselor who understands that your intensities and complexities are features, not bugs.
You may possess multiple neurodivergences and struggle to understand them outside of the neuromajority’s viewpoint. Gifted adolescents and adults can move toward increased self-awareness, self-understanding, self-compassion, self-advocacy, and self-expression. You can emerge from loneliness, anxiety, depression, discontent, trauma, and feeling stuck.
I’m not your starter therapist. In my 26th year doing this work, I can offer you experiential breadth and depth to build upon and complement the work you’ve already begun.
Coaching
You’ve done therapy. You value collaboration and accountability. Your neurodivergences haven’t been utilized, or maybe even recognized, yet. You’re intense, complex, imaginative, and hungry for experience. You are existential in your sensibilities and you often feel like a zebra in a field of horses.
Embrace your giftedness and come into alignment. Through coaching, you can go from good enough to excellent and fulfilled.
We’ll develop a deep understanding of your gifted inner matrices, identify your multidimensional needs, and embark on a course that initiates and builds momentum toward becoming more of who you are.
Group Experiences
Gifted group experiences offer the opportunity to learn and grow while in the company of actual peers. Gifted Adults Group Experience is a coaching group that offers deep dives and deep connection. Magnum Opus is a periodic event that moves you directly into creative consciousness as vehicle for your gifted personal development. The Age of Intuition series offerings are series that center creativity and community as we come to new ways of understanding, accepting, and creating our gifted lives. You are welcome here.
These experiences offer meaningful mirroring and supportive community. Finding more connection is so helpful for all of us.
