My ideal clients are adults, 25 and up, who've spent years carrying the emotional weight of ADHD causing shame, burnout, and exhaustion of wondering what's wrong with them. What brings them to The Life Empowerment Center is usually exhaustion — from self-blame, anxiety, or relationships strained by forgetfulness and disorganization. Some are newly diagnosed; others have known for decades but never found an approach that fit. We help clients move forward with individual counseling, clinical assessment, and structured group programs like Lessons in Living, so each client has more than one path to progress.
I specialize in the emotional side of ADHD — what I call the Emotional Distress Syndrome: the shame, self-blame, and burnout that outlast the diagnosis. I offer individual counseling and EMDR, plus support for the anxiety, depression, and life transitions that often come with it.
If you're tired of feeling like you're always catching up, you're not broken — your brain just needs a different playbook. I'd like to help you find it. I use an educational, directive & action oriented approach so you will leave with new direction immediately. Happy to find a time to discuss what's most challenging and customizing new strategies to act on.
