About

When it comes to having ADHD, it feels as though there are five steps to complete before showing up to the start line everyone else begins at automatically. Underneath the outward mask can be feelings of isolation, being misunderstood, experiences of rejection, depression, anxiety, and a constant state of burn out always on the horizon. As a therapist for ADHD, the neurodivergent lens is applied from start to finish with a focus on learning how to communicate needs to help move through life's struggles. My goal is to help you build a strong and mindful relationship with yourself and curate how that self moves with the world.

My sessions for both individuals and couples include psychoeducation, roleplay, career counseling, art making/journaling prompts, somatic work, and additional resources to help shape a life that works with the ADHD brain rather than against it. All sessions are through the ADHD/Autism perspective and how trauma and other struggles require a unique treatment.

I believe to be fully present, this includes acknowledging the very real systemic hardships (including late stage capitalism), global conflicts, and climate grief that can add to the day to day struggle of being human. I prioritize making your session a space where you feel safe to fully arrive, take deeper breaths, and meet yourself with compassion.
