I also provide comprehensive psychological assessments for the differential diagnosis of ADHD and learning disorders, and I have been very successful in helping individuals receive accommodations in school and work settings.
In psychotherapy, I am a supportive listener who helps clients to uncover blind spots where difficulties lurk. I teach healthy coping strategies, and I coach people to try out new behaviors in their daily lives. I further help individuals, families, and couples to shore up inner resources to face life's challenges effectively and with a stronger sense of self-worth. I also guide individuals toward a better understanding of their feelings and emotional states. Finally, my approach focuses on breaking problematic interpersonal patterns and striving to be more autonomous and self-governing in one's day-to-day life.

We specialize in testing ADHD in adults and providing targeted, effective therapy.
Do you find it so difficult to focus that it interferes with your work, school, or relationships? Do you become easily distracted and have difficulties being productive? Is it hard to remain organized despite your best efforts? Inattention, impulsivity, and overactivity are three common problems associated with ADHD, which affects about 5% of people. It is much more serious than just having trouble concentrating. ADHD creates significant difficulties, presents barriers to success at work or school, and strains relationships between people with ADHD and those who care about them.

As a neurodiverse therapist formally diagnosed with ADHD and Autism, I offer a unique perspective and understanding to my clients. I know firsthand the challenges that come with navigating a neurotypical world, and this allows me to build rapport quickly, overcoming the common communication barriers that often prevent individuals from feeling truly seen and heard in therapy.

My specialties include LGBTQ+, gender identity, sexuality, ADHD, Anxiety, Neurodevelopmental and behavioral emotional disorders, and parent management training.
Finding the right therapist can be a daunting and vulnerable task, whether you're new to the process or a seasoned pro. As you're scrolling through endless profiles and bios, you may ask yourself "Do I belong here?". I became a therapist to give people the safe space, supportive relationship and perspective that they may not get in other aspects of their lives. I also hope to challenge the stigma that may have discouraged them from engaging in the therapy process.

If this description sounds familiar, I’d love to help you and/or your loved one explore Autistic and ADHD traits and patterns to gain a fuller understanding of your experiences and of the impacts these traits can have on relationships, work, and life in general.
Do you or a loved one experience and express emotions differently from others? Hyper-focus on interests in a way that allows for a state of ‘flow,’ but pulls from responsibilities and loved ones? Take in more sensory information than others and sometimes get overloaded by it? Has anyone ever suggested that you or your loved one might be Autistic or an ADHDer? While there are many strengths to neurodivergence, there can be difficulties due to living a world that is not designed for or accommodating of different neurotypes. It can also be difficult to know how best to support our loved ones who are Autistic or ADHDers.
