My desire to become a therapist started when I was a teenager, although my desire to work in a helping profession has been deeply rooted in me since childhood. A dream manifested in me over time to pursue a career in which I could help guide people, create a neutral space free of judgment, and simply be another human who can relate to how challenging the human experience can be. As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe space in which we can work collaboratively to help you meet your goals. I aim to empower my clients so they can feel in a power position in their lives, allowing them to see themselves as capable and worthy.

I became a psychologist to help individuals learn to appreciate their individuality and understand that not everyone learns, processes, and thinks the same way; but rather everyone is unique and can benefit from therapy. I enjoy teaching coping skills to people so they can feel more empowered and take control of their own lives. I find this especially important when working with clients that have had a past diagnosis of a learning disorder. I feel everyone has the potential for growth but the path to growth is not the same for everyone.

Difficult life experiences can take away our sense of safety and make us feel detached from the world and others. Examples of these events include involvement with the foster care system, family separation, chronic illnesses, military deployments and readjustment, and sexual trauma/military sexual trauma. I have experience helping individuals and families process these traumatic events to assist them in reducing the negative effects the symptoms of trauma can have on survivors and the people that they love.

I do therapeutic psychological evaluations - intellectual, academic, and personality assessments - and psychological treatment with children, adolescents, and adults suspected of having attention ( ADHD), learning, behavior, mood and anxiety disorders.
In a confidential, safe, and private setting, we focus on your present predicaments and stress, your family history, and the course of your problems to map effective treatments. Psychological therapy helps you begin to acknowledge and understand the sources of your emotional distress, enhance your coping strategies, and recognize the breadth of your strengths. With increased knowledge and emotional learning, you not only put your life into a more coherent perspective, but you also learn to face life-predicaments with acceptance, flexibility, courage, tolerance, and the ability to take responsibility for your actions. I refer to physician colleagues for pharmacotherapy to treat biological vulnerabilities such as major depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, and ADHD. Pharmacotherapy is sometimes an important component of effective psychological therapy.

I help creative souls, dreamers, and ADHDers awaken their inner strengths and embrace their wonderfully weird selves.
Are you tired of being so hard on yourself all the time? Want to feel more comfortable showing up as your authentic self? This can be so hard to do when ADHD makes you feel either ‘too much’ or ‘not enough’ and question where you even belong. Or when trauma and pain from your past keep you firmly stuck, hindering your ability to heal and move forward. Or maybe anxiety takes hold, leaving you on edge and questioning every move you make. Sometimes it all feels unbearable, sinking you into the depths of depression. If you've had enough of trying to go it alone and are ready for some help, I'm glad you are here.

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.
