Many of the people who come to see me are adults with ADHD who have spent much of their lives feeling misunderstood, self-critical, or quietly exhausted. Often, they have been diagnosed later in life and are trying to make sense of their past - relationships, work patterns, emotional struggles - through a new lens. Outwardly, they may appear capable or high-functioning, yet internally feel overwhelmed, ashamed, or disconnected from themselves. What they want is not just strategies, but understanding, relief, and a way to live more kindly with who they are.
I offer psychotherapy for adults with ADHD, focusing on emotional understanding, identity, and meaning rather than quick fixes. My work is informed by ADHD, psychodynamic, and neurodiversity-affirming principles, with specific attention to relationships, self-criticism, and emotional regulation. Psychoeducation and ACT can be integrated when appropriate.
I aim to provide a calm, thoughtful space where you don’t need to explain yourself from scratch. If you’re looking for psychotherapy that takes ADHD seriously - both clinically and emotionally - and values depth, reflection, and compassion, you’re welcome to get in touch to see whether we might be a good fit.

I help adults with ADHD struggling with self-criticism, shame, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and relationship difficulties, including the impact of late diagnosis. Therapy involves regular reflective sessions to understand emotional and relational patterns through an ADHD-informed lens, with gentle psychoeducation where helpful. Over time many people feel more settled and kinder toward themselves.
