Is there some sort of rule book for life that you missed? How do other people get through the day? Or know what's going on? You have/wonder about ADHD or Autism, or maybe other people bring it up, but what does that really mean? I can help you understand what autism or ADHD means for you; how impacts you, and what this might mean in relationships. This might include work on anxiety, sadness, executive functioning, burnout, working on personal goal setting/finding direction, or a diagnostic evaluation. You'll have a safe place to be yourself, insight into your life, and concrete tips for moving forward, allowing you to be you.
With over a decade of experience diagnosing and treating ADHD, and Autism, I take a strength-based approach to understanding your situation in context. We can do a full evaluation, or go straight into treatment. Let's not wait to get started! There's relief, energy, and power with knowledge. The waiting is the hardest part, but that ends now!
You don’t have to do this alone. I’ve helped countless families and individuals through challenges with ADHD and Autism and seen them thrive with a thorough, confidential evaluation, or treatment/coaching. Through our work together, we sift through all the noise, so that you can get down to what really matters – enjoying a real, happy and healthy life.
