ADHD Therapists in 63303

Although starting counseling can be a difficult, I believe that walking into a counselor's office takes strength and courage. I work with adult clients 22 and older who have experienced ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, and substance abuse to grow in their confidence and understanding of themselves and I work with them to develop skills they can utilize to reach their therapy goals. Through our sessions, clients feel empowered, make choices aligned with their goals, and can create healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Accepting New Clients-As we go through life, it can deliver trials, obstacles, and you may be on an ongoing roller coaster ride; and through these trying situations, you may feel out of control, hopeless, and ponder whom you can seek for help. Starting therapy can seem overwhelming, but I am here to guide the way. Counseling is personable and distinctive; I believe your therapeutic journey should lead to positive changes in your life by incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Person-Centered Therapy (PCT) practices.

Feeling like you’re battling the currents of life’s whirlwind, with thoughts swirling around like a stormy sea? Constantly juggling tasks but still feeling like you’re falling behind? Perhaps you’re navigating (un)diagnosed ADHD and feeling lost? Or maybe you’re dealing with the emotional rollercoaster of parenthood, with highs of joys and lows of exhaustion and self-doubt? Wondering if there will ever be a moment of peace amidst the chaos?

It's a brave and admirable step you are taking to seek support through counseling. Hopefully your search for the ideal provider today can put you on the path to healing! I have over 20 years of experience assisting children, adolescents and adults overcome barriers to their happiness. As a Licensed Professional Counselor who also received a Certification in School Counseling, I excel in understanding ways that mental health and temporary life struggles can impact a person. I assist in navigating and eliminating the ripple effect they cause in the home, school and community.

Life can bring many changes, obstacles and difficulties, and it is my passion to help others navigate these challenges. I enjoy working with people of all ages, and specialize in indivdual, child/adolescent-focused, marital and family therapies. Counseling can be beneficial in addressing the following issues: anxiety; depression; ADHD; developmental and learning disabilities; substance abuse; marriage and pre-marital concerns; difficulties experienced in relationship to divorce, remarriage and blended families; career concerns; financial difficulties; loss and grief; trauma; abuse; and women's issues.

With over 20 years of professional experience I know that no single approach is the right one for every client, so I have been trained in a wide range of modalities that address and treat multiple needs. My focus and passion is helping my clients address life challenges. I carefully meet each individual where they are and explore the best approach on their wellness journey. I empower self-growth, promote self-actualization, strengthen relationships, and reduce emotional suffering in a safe, supportive environment.

Reaching out for help for yourself or your child is hard and scary! Life can be challenging and sometimes we need extra support to get us through life transitions or daily stressors. My role as a therapist is to help your child and family understand and process their emotions, while also providing you with skills to calm your body and mind. I enjoy incorporating play and art into sessions to give children outlets to express their thoughts and feelings when they don’t yet have the words to do so.

Therapy is for everyone. Being a kid is a hard job and being a parent isn't easy either. It can be lonely, isolating and overwhelming when you or your child is struggling. We aren't meant to struggle alone. My passion is helping kids, adolescents, and their families learn how to navigate big feelings, stress and overwhelm. I have dedicated my career to supporting children and parents in their journey toward social and emotional well-being. Do you need help understanding the IEP, 504, or gifted process at school? During my 15 years as a school counselor I helped many families walk through these steps.

Hello! I'm a therapist with a passion for empowering people to embrace their authentic selves. I tailor my methods to your needs and primarily utilize CBT from a trauma informed perspective.

I am informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a basis for emotional processing and behavior change. I am deeply committed to respecting each person's individual experience and work to identify tools and interventions that fit the needs of each person. I believe in an integrative health model exploring the mind, body and environment. I believe that exploring the use of mindfulness techniques can have powerful positive effects with individuals who are open. My aim is to support individuals into awareness of their personal strengths and to encourage growth and healing from within, despite the external circumstances.

Can life just stop being a shit show? You work your butt off for a job that you constantly feel the "Sunday Scaries" over, you come home to a sink full of dishes and somehow twice as much laundry than what you saw the basket this morning, your mom made yet another comment about the way you choose to parent your kids, and you can’t even remember the last time you had a real, guilt-free night out. It's all starting to close in on you and you wish you could just run. It would be so easy to just run, wouldn't it?

I'm so glad you took this first step. Are your nerves rattled? Do you struggle to handle what the world is throwing at you? I want my clients to feel less stressed or overwhelmed, and less "stuck."

Maybe you are dealing with something in the past that you haven't spoken to anyone about. I want my clients to feel safe enough to share their thoughts, raw feelings and experiences without judgment or pressure to think or feel something different.

There are so many life experiences, transitions and "bumps" in the road that can oftentimes feel overwhelming, uncertain or impossible. Whether we have awareness of the problem, or notice that our behaviors are masking problems (fighting in relationships, unhealthy coping behaviors, etc.), we can explore these in session and determine how to overcome these challenges.

Every person deserves the chance to create happiness from within themselves. As the therapist, I will work with the inner strengths of those individuals and help them navigate their life to become their truest self. My therapeutic practice is based on the client's individual needs. I believe that there is no one model to fit all people and the therapy should be molded to the client's individual goals.

We all seek to belong and to be accepted for who we are. When our experiences or relationships lead us to feel negative about ourselves or develop anxiety, we can lose hope. We can develop unhealthy coping strategies or ways of interacting with others that can be harmful to ourselves physically or emotionally. These can lead us to feeling out of control and present with conflicts in our relationships closest to us. I believe we can work together to find hope and create solutions. Let's work together to transform how you feel instead of living a life just coping with how you feel.
