Therapy that honors all of you.
ADHD Therapy in Portland, Oregon
Does this sound familiar?
You are tired of pretending to hold it all together while instead you are exhausted and burnout.
You want to feel connected in your relationships instead of masking your way through them.
You are tired of people pleasing and just showing the parts of you that feel polished and want to embrace the deeper parts of you.
You want support that is neurodivergent friendly.
You are in the right place.
Through 1:1 Therapy,
I can help you get to burnout, exhausted, disorganized to feeling emotionally regulated, connected to yourself, and your purpose. I believe ADHD isn't a focus issue but an emotional regulation issue. Most likely you have tried the skills everyone says such as planners and reminders and it's still not working. That's where I come in. I believe it can get better with the right support.
Therapy with me looks like:
Processing emotions that are holding you back and learning how to regulate the tough emotions like anxiety, anger, sadness, and shame. We will take a look at the relationships in your life and set boundaries so you aren't living exhausted or putting other people above yourself.
How I can Help:
As someone who has lived experience, I view ADHD not as a problem to be fixed but as a different way of experiencing the world- one that comes with strengths and challenges. In our work together we will focus on healing the shame that comes with having ADHD and building tools for self regulation. My approach helps you move from feeling disconnected and misunderstood to feeling a deep connection to yourself.
My Approaches include:
Brainspotting to release shame, anxiety and connect to your inner child.
Executive functioning strategies to help you stay organized and alert.
Nervous system regulation tools to help you soothe anxiety and hyperactivity.
Boundary Setting to help you say no & communicate your needs instead of people pleasing to keep the peace.
In my work in ADHD,
I combine evidence based therapeutic approaches with intuitive, strength focused support to help you understand your mind rather than fight it.
I use nervous system based tools, emotional regulation strategies and practical organizational methods designed specially for adhd brains- not the neurotypical ones you've been pressured to follow. Our work included shame- reduction, inner child healing and pattern awareness so you can break cycles of overwhelm and being trust yourself. Together we will create systems that honor your creativity, sensitivity, intuition and lived experience, helping you to feel grounded, supported and capable in your daily life.
