As a mental health counselor specializing in women with ADHD, I know that your experience of navigating the world is entirely unique—and often completely exhausting. The standard approaches to ADHD have ignored the specific ways it manifests in females. My practice is dedicated to changing that narrative and providing a space where you feel genuinely seen and understood. In our work together, we will focus on three core pillars tailored to how your brain and body actually function: A Neurodiversity-Affirming Approach, Hormonal Awareness and Masking/Imposter Syndrome. Together, we will transform your exhaustion into empowerment.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). We all face seasons of hardship, loss of career or loved ones, divorce, parenting struggles, trauma, or broken relationships, that can leave us weary and searching for hope. As a Christian counselor, I believe God’s promises bring light even in dark times. I walk with clients as they heal from abuse, rebuild confidence, and rediscover their identity in Christ. Others seek support in managing stress, improving relationships, and creating a life filled with peace, purpose, and hope.

Creating a safe space for individuals to thrive, grow, and find courage to tell their story, is what I believe my role to be as a counselor. Often times we run from our pain and avoid facing what has been hurting us all these years. It is my belief that counseling provides a neutral and compassionate environment to process through this pain, and finally discover the relief we have been looking for. My hope as your counselor is to help you develop a deeper awareness and personal insight so that you may live a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Hello friend. I believe healing begins when we feel truly seen, understood, and supported. We carry stories, experiences, and wounds that shape how we see ourselves and move through the world. Sometimes those experiences show up as anxiety, perfectionism, overwhelm, grief, or feeling disconnected from ourselves and the people we care about. As a therapist, my goal is to create a space where you don't have to carry those burdens alone. Together, we'll explore your experiences with compassion and curiosity, honoring the ways your mind and body have worked to protect you while discovering new ways to move toward healing and connection.

Life is not like a box of chocolates. Life is like a roller coaster with ups and downs, highs and lows, successes and failures. Therapy is about navigating through it. Depression, Anxiety, Substance Abuse and Early Childhood Traumas interfere with everyday functioning and cause us to make decisions that do not serve us well. At one point, most of our unhealthy coping tools were survival skills. They were beneficial and warranted at the time but now interfere with creating a life worth living. It's time to challenge those outdated coping tools with more useful, practical and efficient ones.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
