Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), with 9 years of clinical experience. I specialize in working with adults with ADHD. Since 2022, I’ve pursued training in the evidence-based strategies for adult ADHD. I also treat some of the issues that often overlap with ADHD, including anxiety, depression, career transitions, work and school concerns, relationship concerns, chronic illness, and burnout recovery and prevention.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we'll talk about what you're struggling with, and set some goals. We'll go over some questions to complete a mental health assessment.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I strive to provide a space where clients feel fully heard and understood.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

When learning that they have ADHD, many people feel a sense of relief, when aspects of their lives suddenly start to “make sense”. But this process can also raise a lot of questions. You might be wondering if you need more coping skills, or if you might need to make some changes to your routine at work or school. You might be realizing the need to communicate your needs more clearly to the people around you. You may be sensing that you have felt tired, even burned out, for a long time, and want to build habits to regain your sense of balance. As a neurodivergent provider, I understand the challenges of managing a busy life with a differently-wired brain. Adults with ADHD often face problems with burnout, masking, and perfectionism, to name a few. In my work with clients, I first focus on helping them fully understand how their brain works, or in other words, what makes them “tick”. I provide a safe space where they can explore how ADHD may be impacting them, whether at work, school, or in their relationships, and to heal from past experiences. I work with clients to build personalized skills and strategies that truly work for them. *Please note, I am unable to provide ADHD diagnosis/testing at this time.*
