Have you struggled to get and stay organized - despite trying every possible planner, routine, and system? Have you noticed that you have difficulty relaxing, even when you have time to yourself? Have you ever been told that you move around or space out a lot? I specialize in working with adults with ADHD and I can help. You might have been diagnosed with ADHD as a child or you might have gotten diagnosed just last week. Our work together can help you process any anxiety or shame around ADHD symptoms. I can help you navigate social, relationship, and work settings, and help you better understand your brilliant neurodivergent brain.
I approach therapy from a strengths-based, person-centered focus. I also work from a solutions-focused approach, meaning that everyone is capable of finding or creating solutions to the ADHD challenges they face in life. With the right resources, guidance, skills-building, and support from our work in therapy together, sustainable change is truly possible.
If you're here, congratulations and welcome. I know you've done tremendous amounts of work already to find yourself in this place, and I'm so grateful that you're here. I'd be honored to continue building on that work together and guiding you in your ADHD journey. I look forward to connecting with you soon.
