Karla Ayers

As someone with the lived experience of ADHD, I focus on supporting individuals navigating not just ADHD, but challenges that come with it such as anxiety, social awkwardness, difficulty managing daily life, and the little struggles often overlooked such as why you don't want that food or why loud noises are overstimulating or continuously losing your phone. Neurodivergence is focus of my practice and I pursued becoming an ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider to enhance my skills and training in the area of mental health care and teaching strategies that can improve your life. I offer personalized telehealth therapy tailored to each client's unique needs, aiming to enhance the understanding of the disorder, as well as improve coping strategies and overall well-being. With a focus on providing personalized care, I strive to deliver the best possible service to meet each client’s unique needs. I have a flexible schedule and later evening appointments (after 9 pm) are available if requested, and offering both insurance and affordable private pay options.

My focus is to help you better understand ADHD, improve how you manage and view your symptoms, and help you create ways to transform what’s not working. With specialized training in ADHD, as well as often co-occurring issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, toxic relationships, and abuse, I’m dedicated to providing you with the resources and tools necessary for healing, coping, and enhancing your mental well-being. Above all, creating a safe and comfortable environment where you feel heard and understood is my priority. My goal is to empower you to become the best version of yourself and improve your overall quality of life. I want to have a conversation about your unique situation, struggles, and how we can work together to make changes that are useful for you.

During the first session, I hope to understand your individual experience, discussing current and lifelong struggles, what is working and what isn't, and create goals for your success. In each session, you may experience a range of emotions. Some sessions will feel easier, while others may be challenging or difficult. My goal is to instill hope and a sense of promise for the future all while managing symptoms and struggles. You’ll have an active role in shaping the goals and pace of therapy. I view our work together as a partnership where you can learn, grow, and improve, leaving each session with a greater sense of hope and a deeper understanding of yourself. Therapy often requires effort, self-reflection, and tasks to be worked on outside of our sessions. I am committed to listening, guiding, encouraging, and providing the information, education, and resources needed to help you create positive change in your life.
