As a Somatic EMDR Therapist, Trauma Specialist, & ADHD Specialist, I bring over a decade of experience.
Do you ever feel like your emotions are so intense that you either blow up or shut down completely? This might make you feel like you’re ‘doing too much,’ even when you seem to have it all together on the outside. If this sounds familiar, it might be time to learn how to manage your emotions instead of letting them manage you—and I can help! I specialize in working with Black women and women of color aged 25-40, helping them navigate life’s challenges. I support women who struggle with managing relationships, emotional dysregulation, intellectualizing their feelings, trusting themselves, & depression, anxiety, ADHD, & trauma.

I help adolescent and adult men and women manage anxiety, depression, ADHD or substance use as they navigate challenges and life transitions.
You feel stuck living in tension; you're stressed and unsure how to keep moving. Days are long, perhaps feeling purposeless, and just one more hit or one more drink, any distraction, keeps you going. You’ve lost connection with those you love and you feel uncertain of who you are becoming. You’re angry, sad, and spent. Calling it quits, running, and hiding sounds like the best idea yet. Storms of life hit and they hurt, leaving you feeling wounded, angry, and isolated. No matter the storm you may be facing – trauma, addiction, familial stress, loneliness, depression, anxiety – you are not alone. I am here to help.

I understand that being overstimulated can have unwanted impacts on your professional and personal life and make navigating romantic relationships feel impossible. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that societal norms and the stress of everyday life should not determine how you show up for yourself and within your relationships.

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.
