As your therapist I hope to facilitate a process where you are finally allowed to unmask and be authentically you.
It is undeniable that the world around us often fails to fully accept and accommodate our unique strengths and vulnerabilities. In fact, by the time we are adults, our early experiences of being shamed, of people pleasing or defiance have left us with a sense of not being enough. Therapy can offer reparative experiences that allow you to explore these issues and take the first steps to fully embracing your neurological needs and expression.
If you've been experiencing challenges in your work or relationships, you're not alone. Many of my clients seek support in navigating these areas and are eager to cultivate new perspectives and skills. Letting go of 'neurotypical' standards for time management, goal setting, and self-care while adopting ADHD suited ones can feel like a daunting task, but it's also an opportunity for profound growth. I will coach you to take on a world that was not designed for the ADHD mind.
I believe in creating a neuroaffirming space that fully embraces and values neurodiversity—the idea that everyone thinks, learns, and behaves in unique ways. I see these differences as natural, not as something that needs to be "fixed." In my practice, I make sure to offer accommodations that suit individual needs, whether that's adjusting lighting, sounds, or offering sensory-friendly options. I prioritize empowering you to make choices, fostering a sense of autonomy and control in your own life. I also aim to challenge outdated myths about neurodiversity, such as the belief that developmental differences are "red flags." Above all, I focus on creating an environment where you feel safe being yourself, without the pressure to hide or "mask" parts of who you are.
