Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental difference that can interfere with your daily functioning, work performance, and relationships. People with ADHD may struggle with focus, motivation, organization, emotional regulation, memory, and other important brain functions. Medication can help mitigate symptoms, but ADHD isn’t a disorder to be cured.

ADHD rarely travels alone.

If you've been navigating the world with ADHD for a while—especially if undiagnosed or unsupported—you’ve probably picked up a few extra challenges along the way. ADHD rarely travels alone. Things like:

• Anxiety. It’s common for folks with ADHD to experience high levels of anxiety when dealing with deadlines, decisions, interruptions, or even “small” tasks like texting someone back. When life feels like a constant game of catch-up or like you're always one step away from dropping the ball, it’s no wonder your nervous system is on edge.

• Rejection sensitivity (RSD). You replay conversations for days. You panic when someone sounds “off.” You dread criticism, even the helpful kind. While RSD isn’t an official clinical term or criterion for diagnosis, it’s a deeply emotional reaction that’s common in ADHD.

• Burnout. You push yourself until you can’t anymore, then crash—only to do it again. You’ve spent years pretending to be “on,” hiding how hard things are, trying to keep up. That kind of performance costs a lot.

• Emotional dysregulation. You may feel things very deeply—joy, grief, anger, shame—and not know how to regulate those floods of emotion. Sometimes it all feels like too much.

• Sensory overload. Maybe sounds get under your skin. Maybe scratchy clothes ruin your day. Maybe lights, crowds, or smells are just too much. These things matter, but they’re often overlooked in traditional therapy.

• Executive dysfunction. You know what to do. You want to do it. And yet the dishes sit untouched, the email draft stays open, and the deadline rushes past. It isn’t a motivation problem. It's about support, structure, and self-compassion.

• Trauma. Going through life feeling different, misunderstood, or “too much” can leave scars. Even if no one called it trauma, your body remembers. And we can work with that, too.

Neurodivergent-affirming (ND) therapy offers a fresh perspective that encourages self-acceptance, self-compassion, and personal growth. ND therapy isn't about fixing what's "wrong" with you. Instead, it’s about harnessing your strengths and finding ways to work with your brain – not against it.

Therapy sessions are tailored to your specific needs, challenges, and strengths. It’s all about helping you embrace your unique way of thinking, feeling, and being in the world. Depending on your goals, we might address executive functioning difficulties, sensory issues, or anxiety related to social interactions. Or we might work on building practical skills to help you thrive in a neurotypical world.
