Hello! I'm a recreation therapist and I work with people of all ages on the Autism spectrum. I personally deal with anxiety, grief, and have alcoholism and depression in my immediate family. Some days are always harder, but I have come to a good place in life and would like to lend an ear to others as others have to me. I love creative writing, hiking, dogs, kayaking, video games, and weird YouTube channels. I am also very involved in my church, if you want a listener who understands a religious perspective. I am considering grad school to be a counselor, but for now I'll just listen. It is so important for everyone to have a person to safely talk to. I hope so much that you find the healing and growth you seek.
