In my 20 years of practice, one statement has guided the core of my therapeutic relationships: "You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them" (Maya Angelou). As a direct, supportive, practical therapist, I seek to help you shift from "just surviving" to "actively thriving" in your life. Use of sound, evidenced-based theory coupled with unconditional positive regard helps you to achieve balance in your life, becoming empowered to be the writer in your life story. You have value no matter what obstacles you may have faced.

Is your child's ADHD getting in the way of how amazing and smart you know they really are? It is frustrating knowing their potential but watching them struggle to focus, follow directions, sit still or listen in school or at home. Most parents fear how their child will get through the week, or school year, but all parents are terrified how their child will get through life without struggling so hard. Throughout counseling we will move you and your child away from the "deficit" label; the only "disorders" are the stigmas placed on those diagnosed.
