I love working with people with ADHD. As a person with ADHD myself, I recognize the varied impact it has on your life. I love working with teens, young adults, and adults. I have worked with people with new ADHD diagnoses as well as longstanding diagnoses. Perhaps your life has been filled with the phrase "Why don't you just..." followed by some very unhelpful advice. Perhaps you experienced a lot of negative feedback that led to feelings of being less than others. Perhaps you have some shame around that. Let's talk!

In my more than 20 years of experience, I have enjoyed working with adults of all ages who are struggling with depression, anxiety, transition, ADHD, and anyone who is looking to understand themselves better and improve relationship with self and others.
My approach to counseling is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy incorporating aspects of interpersonal, relational, insight oriented and solution focused therapies. I work in partnership with a client to achieve the desired goals from counseling. I incorporate mindfulness and positive psychology in my work. I tend to give clients something between sessions that will keep progress moving and help them have ownership of their change process. Additionally, I am trained in Lifespan Integration, Level III, which is a gentle method to help resolve symptoms related to trauma, recent or past.

Whether you have experienced trauma, loss or have ADHD, there are positive ways to move forward.
Sometimes this stress makes decision making difficult and talking it out or learning ways to cope with the stress, can increase your ability to function with daily tasks and decisions.

I've been working in the field of mental health for 20 years and in private psychotherapy practice for 10 years, and I've found that everyone is trying to do what they feel is right. Unfortunately, experiences that shaped us and the environment in which we were raised can lead us to question what we believe to be right. This confusion can lead to depression, anxiety, attention deficit, and addiction.

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.
