I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions, as well as have experience with borderline personality disorder and PTSD.
Life is full of ups and downs, and sometimes you need someone to help you work through them! I am passionate about helping others through difficult times - you have so many strengths but just might not have tapped into them yet. As a LCSW with over 7 years experience working with kids, teens and adults as a school-based and outpatient therapist, there isn’t much I haven’t heard from my clients. My hope is that you feel comfortable and relaxed as we work together to determine what is important to you and how to get to where you want to go.

Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder can be overwhelming. There is substantial overlap with anxiety, depression, and difficulty adjusting to an ever-changing life. Many individuals are also challenged with behavioral and sensory issues that are difficult to manage, often resulting in conflicts with family members, coworkers, and classmates. These challenges can quickly grow into a life that feels unmanageable and unhappy. When life gets hard, a little help goes a long way. The chaos and stress can impact all areas of life. But it doesn't have to. You don't have to go it alone.

My approach as a board certified art therapist is to use creative and sensory exploration to navigate deeper feelings when words are difficult to articulate. Art therapy is ageless; any age can benefit with no artistic skill required! Some challenges I help children process through include: anxiety, trauma, ADHD, school related issues, and divorce. I also offer the option of traditional talk therapy to work through parenting, pregnancy, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Parents talk through discipline, bonding, anger, and building trust with their kids. Tele-therapy is also available for Indiana and Illinois residents.

My approach is non-judgemental, client centered, guided by the belief that a request to journey with someone during their time of need is a sacred trust.

Life can be difficult. At times, we are confronted with painful experiences we would rather avoid. And because we don't deal with the discomfort those situations bring, we keep ourselves stuck - still experiencing and enacting the pain we are trying to avoid. I see psychotherapy as a liberating journey through which we are able to transcend the emotional discomfort painful occurrences bring with them, while learning to relate to our life stories in such a way that they no longer keep us hostage. Through this process, psychological and spiritual growth occurs. Let me walk with you.

I am a licensed psychologist specializing in children who views parents as partners in the therapy process. Parents are the experts on their child's development, behavior, relationships, and habits. Their involvement is critical as they provide important background information as well as crucial feedback regarding the effectiveness of our interventions. Therapy offers children the opportunity to identify, discuss, and understand problems and to develop necessary coping skills. It also addresses parental concerns and offers education and support to encourage the development of healthy coping strategies and personal growth.

ADHD Therapists

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.
