Great to meet you!

I specialize in ADHD evaluation & medication management for adults, including stimulant and non-stimulant treatment when appropriate. With over 20 years of combined psychiatric and primary care experience, I focus on helping clients improve attention, organization, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. I also treat anxiety, depression, mood changes, and burnout - often conditions that overlap with untreated ADHD.

My approach to therapy

My style is collaborative, structured, & judgment-free. I provide thorough evaluations, clear diagnostic guidance, and evidence-based medication management paired with practical strategies for focus, motivation, and emotional stability. My dual certification allows me to look at the whole picture - sleep, physical health, lifestyle, and mental health - so treatment is realistic, personalised, & effective.

What you can expect from me

In your first visit, we’ll review your history, current challenges, & goals to determine whether ADHD or another condition best explains what you are experiencing. You will leave with a clear plan, next steps, and a supportive path forward. Whether you're struggling with focus, overwhelm, mood symptoms, or executive functioning, I am here to help you gain clarity & get back in control.
