Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic condition that can persist in adults and children. It can cause above-normal levels of impulsive and hyperactive behaviors. With CBT, DBT, ACT, TFCBT, and solution focused therapy, I can provide the treatment you need.

Medication can be useful in some situations, however. Sometimes, people need medication to get to a point where they’re able to engage in psychotherapy. Medication can also help those with serious mental health disorders. For some conditions, combining psychotherapy and medication works best.
Recognizing that each person with ADHD brings a unique narrative, I emphasize empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard. This enables clients to explore and understand their feelings, behaviors, and self-perceptions in a non-judgmental environment. I believe that by facilitating an atmosphere of acceptance and authenticity, individuals with ADHD can harness their strengths, navigate their challenges more effectively, and cultivate a deeper self-awareness that empowers them to lead more fulfilling lives.
I have experience working with a wide array of folks who's been diagnosed with ADHD. I also aim to stay up to date on new understandings and experiences of neurodiversity. I think it's important to understand how neurodivergence impacts you and how living in a neurotypical world can be more difficult.
