Great to meet you!

I specialize in working with adults who are navigating the complex intersections of ADHD and Addiction Recovery. For me, becoming a therapist was a calling forged through personal experience. My foundational passion for substance use recovery was born from a deep desire to support those battling the cycle of addiction, and today, I am energized by helping individuals turn their struggles into a path of sustainable freedom and focus.

My approach to therapy

I provide expert support for adults with ADHD, moving beyond simple organization tips to address the emotional and neurological roots of executive dysfunction. I help my clients navigate the shame often associated with neurodivergence, helping them build “brain-friendly” systems that honor how they naturally think. Whether you are newly diagnosed or have been struggling for years, we will work to harness your unique strengths while managing the burnout and anxiety that often come with an ADHD brain.

What you can expect from me

With a background deeply rooted in substance use disorders, I offer a realistic and empathetic approach to recovery. I understand that addiction doesn’t happen in a vacuum, it is often intertwined with trauma (PTSD), anxiety, and depression. My goal is to help you peel back the layers of your experience to find lasting healing, utilizing evidence-based tools that respect where you are in your journey today.
