Have you been feeling overwhelmed or have you lost motivation? Have you been through trauma? Does ADHD or Autism impact your day to day function? You may have tried to find your own ways to cope and have just run out of ideas. Reaching out for counseling can be challenging, and I get that. Maybe you are skeptical that counseling is the right place for you. I believe that everyone is capable of changing their lives for the better.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist in Oregon and California. Currently, I am only providing comprehensive psychological and psychoeducational evaluations. I conduct assessments for ADHD, learning disabilities, brain injury, psychological functioning and more. I work with adults, but I specialize in young adults and college students. So many people come to me saying they've felt different their whole lives, couldn't talk to anyone about it, and found ways to compensate over the years. Evaluations can provide clarity, validation, and answers so that folks can understand themselves better and seek the right support.

Most of us have difficulties being able to live the life we would like to live. Sometimes it can be hard to see what within us is getting in the way of achieving our goals. We do not exist in a vacuum, other people play a part in why we are who we are, and it takes people to help us create lasting change. My focus is to meet you where you are and help you grow right there, to clear away what is confusing and stifling, and to help you be wholly yourself. I also specialize in ADHD skills building and Career Counseling.

Major Depression, Anxiety, and Trauma: I have worked with individuals who suffer from these Dx, as as well as learning and physical disabilities-ADHD, and/or other academic/learning barriers that get in the way of reaching one's goals.
We all become (at some point) shackled to a stuck version of ourselves. Being vulnerable enough to choose something other than our perfectly practiced persona can seem ~impossible. Is your ~asker too broken to learn another way? It takes courage to recreate, redefine, and let go of what doesn't work! "I Don't Know," become very important words when we choose to sail the rough seas...and yet, the risk can be so beautiful. It becomes excruciatingly clear that the pain of staying where we are, must become more acute than leaping into something wonderfully new!

ADHD Therapists

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.
