With over a decade of licensed experience, I love what I do. I am an ADHD Specialist licensed in both Wisconsin and Illinois who treats individuals, couples, and groups. Most of my clients struggle with executive functioning challenges, anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, relationship concerns, or major life transitions. Together, we create a collaborative space to build insight, develop practical skills, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change. Clients who often say, "Anne is a great fit," are adults, emerging adults, healthcare professionals, and couples who feel overwhelmed. Yes, ADHD is treatable!
I am a certified ADHD Specialist (ADHD-CCSP) for adults. I am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, professor, experience in academic healthcare, and have comfort with high-achieving individuals. I also am licensed in both Illinois and Wisconsin. I have a Grief Support Specialist Certificate as well as a Board Certified Telehealth Professional Level III.
So: You have exhausted resources and still feeling a sense of overstimulation, overwhelm, and like you're doing everything and still: It isn't enough? This is where I can come in. Executive functioning skills, relational help, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help bridge a gap. I am not here to rebuild. I am here to help shine the sculpture you've built.

In my ADHD Specialty work, I work with executive functioning training, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and relational therapies. I run both individual, couples, and group work in these areas. My relational work stems from Experiential, Imagotherapy, and Emotion-Focused. During treatment, I work with not just people who want to get better yet are ready to get better. I will work as hard as you do.
