If you or your child are experiencing any of these, please know there is an active solution to help with this! My specialty involves "tweens" (ages 10-13) with a clinical focus around ADHD, ODD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.
**AS OF 05/20/2024: CURRENTLY ACCEPTING A FEW NEW CLIENTS** Trying to focus on one task at a time can be challenging and sometimes boring. Emotions then take over and you find ways to release that tension in a negative way. During this time, it can cause conflict between family members, peers, and/or significant others. These negative thoughts/actions are easy to express and obvious strengths are pushed to the side. Having someone who has gone through this personally/professionally can provide active solutions, which can help develop a sense of ease and comfort within the family and individual.

Are you caught between the chaos of ADHD or ASD and life demands? Is your journey filled with distractions, setbacks, and surprises? Are you fed up with struggling to focus, experiencing mood swings that disrupt your day, or feeling overwhelmed by disorganized thoughts and tasks? You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You're ready to regain clarity and stability. You're ready to tackle challenges with confidence and efficiency. Most of all, you are ready to reclaim control of your life and embrace a future where ADHD or ASD no longer holds you back.

What if we could have both?! Through creating a therapeutic relationship, I aim to help you add balance to your life without it feeling overwhelming.
Since I was young mental health was always a topic in my home, so becoming a 3rd generation therapist was not surprising to those around me. When I realized prioritizing self-care, setting boundaries, & naming feelings were not normal dinner table topics, I wanted to change that. I am passionate about destigmatizing mental health and making tools more accessible. My goal is to empower my clients to use their innate gifts and strengths to conquer anything that comes their way. Taking the first step is brave, but continuing to show up and work towards your goals is courageous.

I enjoy assisting adults, parents, and their children to understand how to grow and maneuver their way through life's challenges. It can be overwhelming not knowing how to deal with anxiety, stress, and social expectations when you don't know how to open up. This can take its toll and make anyone feel powerless. Discovering how fear and anxiety grow over time while interfering with daily tasks can improve self-esteem, confidence and create strong bonds between parents and children. I also offer Psychological Evaluations for Immigration cases petitioning under a UVisa, VAWA, Asylum, or Extreme Hardship.

As human beings, we live and grow and learn in a complex world. At the core of this complexity are the various relationships that we find ourselves in. Relationships with our selves, family members, friends, and communities. Some of these are chosen by us; others are not. Nevertheless, we often find our deepest meaning and deepest difficulties in these relationships. It is in the complex interplay between ourselves and these relationships that we can find ourselves struggling, even suffering. And yet there are strengths and challenges, weaknesses and limits, hope and pain in the midst of this life.

Relationship with others is a primary motivating force in our lives, it is a basic need we all seek to meet in different ways. Non-judgmental collaboration with clients to help discover the emotional patterns in their lives and relationships that can cause and/or maintain distress, with the goal of creating more adaptive and fulfilling responses, is the main focus of the work we do. We will team up to identify the needs underlying your emotions and thoughts and we will work to find clearer and more authentic ways of communicating those needs so that they can finally be met.

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.
