Feeling overwhelmed by life’s relentless demands, constantly caring for others while neglecting yourself? You’re not alone—and you’re in the right place for support. I work with individuals managing ADHD, anxiety, and burnout, helping break the cycle of giving without replenishing your own energy. Coming from a teaching background where duties always came first, and as a military spouse facing frequent relocations and distance from loved ones, I deeply understand the mental load and exhaustion. I get that prioritizing oneself often feels selfish, but meeting your own needs builds the strength to show up fully for others.
In our sessions, I use talk therapy combined with evidence-based practices, drawing on my ADHD and DBT skills training to tailor techniques for emotional regulation and resilience. My Person-centered approach integrates Positive Psychology, CBT, and Narrative Therapy, ensuring you feel heard, seen, and supported as we navigate your story together.
Together, we’ll co-create a plan to help you manage daily stresses, harness your potential, and find joy in your life again. You’ll learn to appreciate the journey you’re on and look to the future with renewed hope. Ready to begin? Schedule a free consultation to see if we’d be a good fit.

I work with clients who have experienced burnout, trauma, and/or an ADHD diagnosis later in life. During initial sessions, we will sort out the main pain points and how they are impacting your life. Then we will co-create coping strategies that are tailored to your unique situation. My goal from day 1 is to help you feel empowered to handle life's stressors with a "tool box" of strategies.

I use a Person Centred approach. In the first session, we'll unpack what brings you to therapy and then create goals to work on. You can expect a combination of learning about new strategies to cope as well as exploration of your past. During treatment, we'll check in regularly to ensure you're getting what you need from our sessions.
