ADHD Therapists in Vancouver, BC
I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, challenges in family, friendships, and relationships as well as ADHD and neurodiversity support.
Many of the challenges that bring people to therapy : anxiety, depression, self-criticism, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, or feeling stuck in harmfull behaviours are often the result of unmet emotional needs.
These needs might include feeling safe, understood, valued, supported, allowed to express emotions, or free to be yourself. When needs go unmet, we adapt in the best ways we can. But sometimes the adaptations that once helped us cope become the problem. Therapy can help you understand the unmet needs and how to change your life to better meet them.

Counselling is a collaborative process of exploring the difficulties (stress, emotions, experiences) that the client brings forward in session. Counsellors promote change by helping the client to focus on the feelings, thoughts, behaviours, and experiences that are maintaining barriers to attaining goals. Counsellors are there to “do with” not “do for.” The client is the one that leads the way, while the counsellor acts as a guide or support. My goal is to help you find your voice and your path to being your favorite version of you!

Hi, I'm Nicole (she/they). Maybe you're feeling stuck...you know what the problem is but not what to do next. Maybe you've been experiencing worry, or a sense of 'what's the point?' about your life. Maybe you're feeling really alone. Maybe you've recognized that the past is creeping into your present, and old patterns are affecting the relationships you are in today. Maybe you've even been to therapy before but haven't seen the change you want to see. If you're in a space where you're not feeling like yourself, you're not alone, I have felt this way too, and I know how much courage it takes to even start considering asking for help.

ADHD Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
