I help people who are overwhelmed with changes and demands that come their way. I specialize in working with adults who are wondering if they have ADHD or Autism. Anxiety, masking and imposter syndrome can also be part of the problem. In telehealth sessions with me, you’ll get good science, practical suggestions, patience, and understanding. Let's connect. Schedule a free 15-minute intro call at www.mythrivecollective.com.
You will get practical steps and tools to reduce social anxiety and improve stress management. You don’t have to feel overwhelmed anymore. Things don’t have to feel so unpredictable. You can feel calmer. You can be more confident. You can create better relationships. You can be free of the daily mountain of stress.
Schedule a free 15-minute intro call at www.mythrivecollective.com. You’ll graduate from therapy with the skills to set healthy boundaries, improve your communication, and feel more confident. You'll be on your way with solutions in hand.
