ADHD Therapists in Ottawa, ON

•Accepting new clients.• Imagine a path scattered with obstacles—each step forward may feel like a battle against shadows from the past. Whether these shadows stem from childhood trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, or ADHD, the weight can be profound. One seeks not just relief from distressing symptoms, but a profound understanding and resolution of one's emotional wounds. Therapy can be a journey toward self-discovery and resilience, aimed at developing healthier relationships and a more empowered sense of self. Therapy aims to help one move beyond the past, learn to navigate the present and attempt to reclaim the future.

Hello and welcome! I am a neurodivergent therapist who understands the complex task of understanding your own needs. I work from a gentle and curious stance, aware that each person brings with them a unique history, identity and experience that deserves a safe space to unpack and explore. I have a strong interest in the areas of anxiety, neurodiversity (ADHD, autism), attachment and relational trauma, life transitions, stress management, relationship and family challenges, self-esteem, and social justice issues. I understand how challenging and freeing it can be to process your identity, and that it is not always a linear path.

My main goal for clients is an increase in quality of personal and work life through the cultivation and nurturance of self-compassion, authenticity, and self-advocation, while simultaneously enhancing productivity through neurodivergent accommodation. Most of the work I do is with newly diagnosed womxn and non-binary adults who are learning how to get their needs met and are interested in unpacking neurodivergent identity, unmasking to avoid burnout, and meltdown management; however, I am also skilled in the areas detailed below. Sessions are strategically structured to accommodate level 1 autism and ADHD. Neurotypicals welcome.
