I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, identity concerns, grief, and life transitions, with a particular interest in working with LGBTQ clients, neurodivergent adults ( ADHD), and those experiencing bereavement or work-relates stress and anxiety.
You may be feeling anxious, stuck, or disconnected from yourself, unsure why things feel so heavy right now. Past experiences, identity questions, grief, or life transitions might be impacting your sense of safety or self-worth. I’m Keith, a pre-accredited psychotherapist (APCP), and I work with adults online who want a supportive space to explore what’s holding them back. You don’t need to have it all figured out, all you need to do is contact me today and get started on your self-healing journey. I have worked with adults dealing with stress, life transitions and with special interests in those working in content moderation.

I’m a pre-accredited psychotherapist with lived experience of ADHD.
I help adults who are neurodivergent (diagnosed or self-identified) with anxiety, burnout, masking fatigue, and self-doubt. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or disconnected. I know how hard it is masking and trying to fit into systems that don’t work. I can help you be yourself and deal with the feelings of overwhelm.

Most of the people I see are dealing with something they haven't been able to sort out on their own. It might be anxiety that won't quite settle, the weight of things that happened a long time ago still showing up in everyday life, a relationship that keeps running into the same painful wall, or a sense that what used to get you through isn't working anymore. What they have in common is a wish to understand themselves better and to feel more settled, in themselves and with the people around them. I offer a space that is warm and unhurried, but also thoughtful and considered, where you can bring whatever you need to.

I support individuals, including those with ADHD and autism, in deepening self awareness and rebuilding healthy connections.
Feeling disconnected from yourself? Life experiences, whether trauma or the challenges of being neurodiverse in a world that doesn’t always understand, can leave you feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or out of touch with who you really are. I provide a supportive space where you can begin to explore your story, deepen your self-understanding, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may feel hidden or out of reach. My role isn’t to “fix” you. it’s to walk alongside you as you move toward greater clarity, self-acceptance, and growth at your own pace.

The ideal environment is one that both supports & challenges us. Too often we go without both of these conditions. A Life Coach will tease out and help you create your vision of what you really want your life to be. If everything in your life stays status quo, you will head into a default future. We need another perspective if not we tend to go around repeating our default patterns and getting nowhere. As a Transformational Life Coach Linda acts as the boat, that you the client steps into, to move across the gap, to get you from your current life, to the life that is calling you.

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, behavioural 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.

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.
