ADHD Therapists in Orange County, NC

Whether you are newly diagnosed with ADHD/ADD or have been struggling to find solutions for years, I will help you create effective strategies to manage your challenges and enjoy lasting change.

Are you a member of a neurodivergent and/or LGBTQIA+ community seeking a therapist who gets it?

I'm so glad you're here. You are so courageous to have begun this journey. You've just taken the first step to feeling better- to creating a happier, more peaceful future.

Regardless of why you're struggling, I'd be honored to provide support. I hope to hear from you soon.

Life can be challenging at times, can't it? There are many things that can cause instability, sadness, or a number of other problems. But, there are also numerous sources of stability, joy, and health within our reach. Sometimes, the situations we find ourselves in make it difficult to see any hope, happiness, or a way out. I would love to join you in your current moment and walk alongside you. We can work together to find stability and rediscover the joy of life that may have been lost or feels out of reach. It doesn't have to remain in the past or be a dream in the future; let's work together to experience it in the present.

Life happens to all of us, unfortunately, what to do when it does is a question that stumps many of us. Sometimes it's an unexpected phone call or experience that alters the trajectory of life, leaving us gripped by defeat, anxiety, and despair. Other times, it's the pain of past wounds (or sometimes present)/trauma caused by someone who was supposed to love and protect us that weighs on us like a ton of bricks, stifling our ability to move forward. At LCG of NC, we hear you, feel you, and we believe that with the right support, you can achieve, overcome, improve, defy, and ultimately win in life.

Hello! I work with children, adolescents, teens, and emerging adults struggling with anxiety, self-compassion, relationship concerns, life transitions, social skills, and burnout.

Looking for answers? Seeking a solution for you or your loved one?

Let’s have a conversation to determine whether a psychological assessment or therapy will help you get closer to your goals. While the new school year brings a fresh start and great intentions, it can often be very frustrating when that is not enough to create lasting change.

When these challenges are not adequately addressed, it can be disheartening when so much potential is hidden beneath the disorders.

I have effectively worked with adults, adolescents, and children in overcoming emotional and behavioral obstacles through the use of CBT, solution-focused strategies, play therapy, and skills training.
