Are you a mother (of kids or adults) who is feeling anxious and overwhelmed? Maybe you are a parent of a child with ADHD, anxiety, autism, or other challenges. You might have similar challenges yourself or other stressors contributing to things feeling so hard. You might be doing your best with a prickly teenager or an adult child, but you are feeling overworked and underappreciated. You may be feeling lost because you have an empty nest or misunderstood as a grandmother or mother-in-law. Maybe you are exhausted from conflicts within the family, taking care of everyone else, even a parent, or grieving the loss of a parent.

As someone who has worked in the Autism community for 16 years and as an LP-A for 11 years, building relationships with my clients and families is at the heart of everything I do and offer.

My passions lie in helping with these struggles in order to lead successful and fulfilling lives. I empower my clients to be an advocate for themselves, reclaim their lives, and pursue their passions.

I love working with children with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing difficulties. I strive to find ways to engage my clients in purposeful play and navigate ways to strengthen their mind-body connection for improved self regulation.

Welcome to a space where your unique story is celebrated, and your journey to self-discovery is honored.

Mary Lynn Marus (Molly), works primarily with neurodivergent adults, with confirmed or suspected diagnoses of Autism, ADHD, and/or other mental health conditions. Do you find that behaviors are hard to manage, social communication is challenging, or that mood or worries are constantly weighing on you?

Are you wanting to make changes in your life? Everyone needs extra support now and then, especially when going through life changes such as starting college, moving to a new state or town, changes in work, or changes to relationships. I specialize in working with women with ADHD, and I have a great deal of experience working with women with: anxiety, life transitions, women’s issues, and mild to moderate depression.

Are you overwhelmed and in need of clarity? Has anxiety got you on “high alert” and peace and rest seem to evade you no matter what? Do you keep asking yourself why the past can’t just stay in the past? Does ADHD feel like it is the ever present roadblock that keeps you from obtaining your full potential? Are you just plain tired and feel like you’re just going through the motions, void of joy and lacking purpose? I want to reassure you that there is hope and a path forward. There is a full life on the other side of trauma, beyond debilitating anxiety and hopelessness, and beyond hard ADHD symptoms. You’re not alone.

I am a neurodivergent therapist and my neurotype, ADHD, informs my therapy style. I'll follow you down those rabbit holes and tangents, reign it in when necessary, and keep an eye out for connections and common themes related to your goals for therapy. I'm all about personal agency and autonomy. I believe YOU have the answers and solutions inside you already, it's just a matter of finding them!

While there are many reasons to seek therapy, often an underlying theme is that the strategies we have developed and relied on over time to deal with life's challenges are no longer working as effectively as might be needed. It is my belief, and has been my experience, that by understanding how we have adapted to the forces that shape our lives (both within and around us), and by changing the ways we relate to and experience these forces, we can create opportunities to strengthen valued skills or learn new ones, improve our ability to respond to and manage stress, and move with intention toward desired goals and outcomes.

I work with clients ages 15 on up struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and life changes who desire to improve mood and learn healthy coping skills.

You just have to stop letting them control you." -Dan Millman
