Do you -- or someone you love-- have trouble staying focused, keeping track of things, being on time or managing interruptions? If you're concerned about a youngster, is s/he smart but getting mediocre grades? Does s/he daydream, take too long to complete homework, forget things frequently? Does s/he blurt out answers precipitously? Or leap before s/he looks? These are problems everyone has at times, but if these things have been happening for a long time, happen very often and are severe enough to impair a person's natural ability to function, it could be ADHD.

For everyone there are patterns in our relationships with ourselves and with others that often go unnoticed and unexplored. Through a psychodynamic and trauma-informed approach, I work with clients to identify these patterns and to develop insight so they can experience more emotional growth and well-being. Change can be hard and we often use avoidance as an ineffective coping mechanism.
