Living with ADHD can be like having a busy city in your brain with no crossing guards, no stoplights, and no working clocks. Everything is coming in fast from all directions and you’re not sure what comes first, last, or where it’s going. You know you’re smart. You know you’re capable. It’s the doing that always seems hard. Sometimes you get to it and then get tunnel vision and lose track of time. Other times you get distracted by something midway through. Sometimes you just don’t have enough juice to start. Sometimes you don’t know how to get started. Sometimes it’s so boring it’s painful. Why do other people get it so easily?

As an integrative practitioner, I meet clients where they are at in life. Healing and wellness is part of our life journey, and reaching out to others is often a necessary part of the healing process.

Often times we feel like we are broken, or simply don't fit in; these are opportunities to intentionally explore whether we are living our authentic life, or trying to follow someone else's path.
