Additionally, I specialize in working with adults with ADHD and offer individual therapy, executive function coaching, group therapy, and conduct ADHD assessments.
There is significant strength in seeking support and guidance when you need it. My clients are often those who reach a point of feeling lost or overwhelmed and understandably cannot move forward on their own. They might feel disconnected from themselves, feel stuck due to past experiences, or recognize that the way they are living their life does not align with what truly makes them happy.

People who see me are often painfully impacted by ADHD, neurodivergence, anxiety, executive functioning difficulties, procrastination, creative blocks, imposter syndrome; C-PTSD, narcissistic & emotional abuse, codependency, people-pleasing, relationship issues, family conflict, estrangement; and OCD (including Pure-O & R-OCD). While I enjoy working with clients from all fields, I specialize in treating creative professionals & artists. As a creative, you may be building your career or considering a total pivot. Regardless of where you are now, the unknowns of where you'll end up can be anxiety-provoking. Maybe now more than ever.

I have seen the healing and growth that happen. Give yourself the chance.

You feel overwhelmed by the pressure to succeed, yet still feel like you're falling behind some invisible measure of "real success." You are over being the giver in your relationships, whether in friendships where you initiate all of the texts or your intimate relationships where you feel more like a manager than a true partner. Your nervous system is spent because you're burned out, but even the thought of downtime gives you guilt. You're ready for something to change on a deeper level so that you can finally understand yourself, accept yourself, and trust yourself, no matter the circumstances.

Every one of us deserves joy, peace-of-mind, and well-being. We deserve to reach our full potential. Yet, somewhere along the way, we are diverted--oftentimes when our past burdens us, change upsets us, or unmet expectations disappoint us. Attempting to make sense of the distress, we engage in patterns that seem to comfort us, but in actuality, they move us further away from growth and the very things that have the power to fulfill us. Whatever your reason is for therapy, I aim to help pinpoint these patterns, rewrite your story, and guide you in finding your way towards the positive life aspects that you're worthy of experiencing.

When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
