ADHD

What is ADHD?

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects attention, focus, impulsivity, and executive functioning skills like organization, planning, and time management. People with ADHD may find it difficult to sustain focus on tasks, follow through on responsibilities, or keep track of details in daily life. You might feel easily distracted, restless, or forgetful, even when you genuinely want to stay organized and productive. At the same time, ADHD often comes with creativity, curiosity, energy, and unique problem-solving abilities that can be powerful strengths.

Living with ADHD can sometimes feel like trying to navigate life with a mind that constantly jumps between tasks and ideas. Even when you try your best, you may feel frustrated by unfinished projects, missed deadlines, or chaotic routines. It can affect work, school, relationships, and self-esteem. You may worry that others don’t understand the challenges you face, or that you should be able to “just focus” or “try harder”. ADHD is not a matter of effort, it’s a difference in how your brain processes attention and information, and with the right support, you can build strategies to manage challenges and thrive.

I offer neuroaffirming therapy for ADHD. I will focus on understanding your unique brain wiring, embracing your identity, and working with—not against—your brain. Together, we build strategies that support executive functioning, emotional regulation, and self-compassion, all while honoring your lived experience and individual needs.

How therapy can help

My approach focus on teaching clients to build practical skills to manage daily challenges and lean into your strengths. Therapy often combines general psychotherapy with targeted support for executive functioning. Strategies may include developing routines, creating reminders and systems to stay on track, managing distractibility, and building skills for emotional regulation and self-compassion. Therapy is tailored to your individual experience, helping you identify what works best for you and teaching skills you can apply in your daily life.

In therapy, I will support you in:

  • Managing distractibility and impulsivity with practical strategies

  • Building routines and systems to stay organized and on track

  • Improving time management, planning, and follow-through on tasks

  • Reducing frustration and stress related to ADHD challenges

  • Building on your unique strengths while learning strategies to manage challenges effectively
