• Struggling with focus and attention – ADHD, Autism, neurodivergent children and adolescents who experience brain fog, or difficulty staying on task and feeling motivated. • Dealing with anxiety or stress – looking for ways to regulate their emotions and feel more in control. • Recovering from a brain injury – aiming to regain cognitive function, memory, or emotional stability. • Seeking better sleep and relaxation – wanting to improve their rest and overall mental clarity. • Parents looking for support for their child – whether it’s emotional regulation, learning difficulties, or behavioral concerns. • Work Compensation.
I provide evidence based approach with neuroscience which may include neuro brain training enhancing brain function. I help clients improve focus, emotional regulation, and overall well-being, working with ADHD, anxiety, brain injuries, and sleep iregulaties.
Struggling with focus, anxiety, or a brain injury can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. At Synaptic Link, I offer neuro scientific brain training to improve focus, emotional balance, and well-being. I also provide counseling for work compensation cases. Let’s take the next step toward your healing together.

At Synaptic Link, I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and determine the most appropriate path forward to help you make meaningful progress. Through CBT, we'll examine how your thoughts influence your emotions and overall experience.
