188 Thomas Johnson Dr. #203 Frederick, MD 21702
Have you been diagnosed with ADHD and struggle in relationships? You know you are a good, caring, and loving person, but seem to always end up in toxic or "complicated" relationships? You say to yourself, "Why is it easy for everyone else? Why cant I have a decent relationship?" Have you had people tell you that you're too emotional and take things too personally. You try to control your emotions, but you can't help but feel deeply. You may notice difficulties in emotional overreactions, chronic lateness, RSD, impulsive decisions and more. ADHD can make navigating relationships difficult, but with techniques you can be successful!
I specialize in helping adults identify their ADHD symptoms and help them understand how those symptoms impact their relationships (ex. emotional overreaction is ADHD emotional dysregulation). Every step in a relationship can be challenging if there is no understanding of how your ADHD brain interprets and responds to social interaction/input.
I believe everyone has the potential to live a happy and fulfilled life. I understand the difficulty that ADHD has on all aspects of life. I live with it! With me, you get a partner in understanding yourself and your relationships. At times, it's not an easy journey, but it's a journey we can successfully take together if you're willing to take the steps.
