ADHD & Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy
Reimagine the Story of Who You Are—And Who You’re Becoming
When Motivation Becomes a Fight
Therapy can help you soften the struggle.
Maybe you’ve spent your life working twice as hard to keep up—and still feel behind. Maybe you’ve been labeled lazy, disorganized, or “too much,” when the truth is, your nervous system has been running a marathon under fluorescent lights.
And maybe your struggle with neurodivergence includes reaching for your phone, substances, or any flash of dopamine to interrupt the fatigue or shutdown. These are deeply human ways to escape, manage overwhelm, or temporarily tune out self-criticism. They can also become a vicious part of the cycle.
ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence aren’t character flaws—they’re different ways of experiencing the world. But when they’re misunderstood (or constantly pushed against the grain of productivity culture), the result is often years of shame, burnout, and self-doubt.
In this space, therapy isn’t about managing symptoms in isolation. It’s about making sense of your story, recognizing what’s been protective, and building new ways of relating to time, tasks, emotions, and yourself. We explore how masking, internalized ableism, and systems like capitalism and urgency culture have shaped your experience—and we begin to imagine what ease and self-trust might feel like, beyond survival mode.
What I’ve Learned From Listening
Many of my neurodivergent clients arrive apologizing—for their motivation, their memory, their mess. They’ve carried shame for struggling in a culture that confuses productivity with value.
I’ve seen the patterns of protection: masking, self-blame, shutdown. And I’ve felt the longing—for compassion, for a less hostile world, for permission to move at a human pace.
With a background in vocational rehabilitation, I’ve spent years helping people build practical tools, advocate for accommodations, and find ways to thrive within—and beyond—rigid systems.
Progress doesn’t always look like productivity. Sometimes it’s one small task completed, with someone beside them saying: “Hell yes! That’s a win.”

My Philosophy of Care
When your brain has felt like a problem to solve, it makes sense to want a fix. But therapy isn’t about erasing who you are—it’s about easing the struggle, softening the shame, and finding what actually works for you. Together, we’ll look at what’s been asked of your nervous system, and what it might feel like to build a life that works with your brain, not against it.
