My approach is rooted in respect, autonomy, collaboration, and compassion. My goal is to support you in building healthy relationships, navigating challenges, managing symptoms, and working toward your personal goals.

I work well with multipassionate individuals, thoughtful high achievers, queer folks and those navigating ADHD and gender identity.
You’ve been navigating life’s highs and lows with thoughtfulness and care. But maybe you’re feeling stuck, carrying more than your fair share, or struggling to stay calm in the chaos. Perhaps you’ve been navigating unique challenges as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, TCK or a neurodivergent individual, looking for a space where your experiences are truly understood. Maybe you find yourself giving so much to others that you have nothing left for yourself. You want to feel more confident, more at ease and in touch with your purpose, and even though you know what you have to do, it can be hard to take the first step on your own.

I am a licensed psychologist with extensive experience working with adults who are dealing with stress, burnout, or attention-related difficulties, including ADHD.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, mentally tired, or stuck in patterns that are hard to change.

I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, burnout, depression, ADHD, and life transitions.
Are you tired of trying to change, only to end up feeling stuck or discouraged?
Many of us carry emotional burdens—people-pleasing habits, self-doubt, critical inner voices—that quietly shape our lives. We read the books, try the strategies, but lasting change feels just out of reach. It’s not a lack of willpower. It’s the nervous system doing its best to protect us, even when those old strategies no longer serve us. Therapy offers a space to slow down, understand these patterns, and gently make room for something new.

Human’s have an innate need to be seen, held, and accepted for their reality. Through relationship we offer mirrors to each other, and these mirrors help us build a strong sense of self and grow from our life experiences. Without these mirrors individuals can start to feel invisible. Therapy can help people reflect on many elements of their lives including daily struggles, past or current traumas, systemic violences, spiritual and existential unknowns, neurodivergence, illness, and disability to name a few. In Drama therapy we use talking as well as creativity to help you feel seen and also allow you to play with your reflection.

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.
