The type of client that seems to work well with me are those with ADHD, depression, anxiety, or similar and who have the drive to want to find a different way of living.

I look forward to helping someone to find the reason for the change that they want to make which would make it that more powerful.

I provide a safe space where you and I can explore the emotions and experiences that characterize your successes and struggles.

Much of my work is with individuals who are experiencing issues related to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma.

Do you feel stuck and overwhelmed despite being a highly self-aware and an intuitive person? Are you exhausted by anxiety, panic, and nonstop worrying? Have you tried talk therapy before and it was okay but it didn't really create the transformation or deep healing and relief from anxiety you are looking for? I LOVE working with Millennial women, like you, and using a holistic mind, body, soul approach. I will teach you the empath skills you need to get your anxiety under control, stop taking on other people's emotions, and finally set healthy boundaries so you can start living a life of freedom and joy.

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.
