As someone who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, I know firsthand the uncertainty that comes with being diagnosed later in life. I understand the difficulties people with ADHD often face such as procrastination, focus, overwhelm, rejection sensitivity, low self-esteem, impulsivity, and emotional dysregulation to name a few. I love working with ADHD individuals to help them better understand their symptoms, and to work together to find ways to function more comfortably in a neurotypical world.

I love working with adults on navigating transitions. Whether you are moving, just experienced a difficult breakup, or are just finding yourself in the adult world, I would love to be there with you to maneuver it.

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) combines aspects of acceptance and mindfulness approaches with behavior-change strategies, in an effort to help clients develop psychological flexibility. Therapists and counselors who employ ACT seek to help clients identify the ways that their efforts to suppress or control emotional experiences can create barriers. When clients are able to identify these challenges, it can be easier to make positive and lasting changes.

Narrative therapy is a therapeutic approach that seeks to help people identify their values and the skills and knowledge they have to live these values, so they can effectively confront whatever problems they face. The narrative therapy approach views problems as separate from people and assumes people have many skills, abilities, values, commitments, beliefs and competencies that will assist them in changing their relationship with the problems influencing their lives.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a classic talk therapy technique that helps increase awareness of negative thinking in order to better handle challenging situations. In addition to helping those with mental health disorders (such as anxiety or depression), CBT is also helpful for anyone who is looking to learn how to manage stressful situations. Therapists that use CBT often have a structured program, which involves a set number of sessions.

I enjoy seeing my clients grow into themselves. Adulthood involves so many changes that can be scary to navigate alone. I love giving my clients space to share with me and watching them gain confidence and comfort in being and becoming who they are.
