NEURODIVERGENT AFFIRMING THERAPY

If you’re an adult with ADHD or another form of neurodivergence, you’ve probably spent years trying to force yourself into systems, routines, and expectations that just don’t work for your brain. And the result? Burnout. Shame. Overwhelm. A chronic feeling of not being “enough,” no matter how hard you try.

As a neurodivergent affirming therapist with lived experience of ADHD, I offer therapy that honors how your brain actually works — not how the world says it should.

What Is Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy?

Neurodivergent affirming therapy is rooted in the belief that different ways of thinking, processing, and interacting with the world are not disorders to be fixed — they’re natural variations of the human experience.

This work focuses on acceptance, adaptation, and advocacy — not on trying to "normalize" you or squeeze you into neurotypical standards. Together, we’ll unlearn the shame-based messaging you’ve picked up over the years and build tools that actually fit you.

You Might Be Looking for Neurodivergent Therapy If You:

• Have ADHD (formally diagnosed or self-identified)

• Struggle with executive functioning, time blindness, or task initiation

• Constantly bounce between hyperfocus and burnout

• Feel overwhelmed by the demands of work, relationships, or self-care

• Mask your struggles to appear “together” — but feel exhausted behind the scenes

• Experience rejection sensitivity, perfectionism, or people-pleasing

• Are tired of strategies that don’t work for your brain

Therapy for ADHD in Adults

Adult ADHD is often misunderstood — especially in high-achieving, perfectionistic, or “functional” people. Maybe you’ve always made it work, but only at the cost of your wellbeing. Maybe you’ve learned to appear calm and competent while managing an inner whirlwind.

In therapy, we’ll:

• Explore the impact of chronic overwhelm, guilt, and self-criticism

• Untangle internalized ableism and perfectionism

• Identify patterns of burnout, masking, or dysregulation

• Build custom strategies for executive functioning that actually support your life

• Practice self-compassion, rest, and boundaries

• Learn to work with your nervous system — not against it

This isn’t about fixing you — it’s about supporting and celebrating the way your mind works, and helping you build a life where you don’t have to hide it.

What This Space Offers:

• A judgment-free zone for all your quirks, tangents, and “too muchness”

• Tools for navigating ADHD, emotional regulation, and identity exploration

• Support for managing relationships, career demands, and self-advocacy

• A therapist who gets it — and who won’t pathologize your natural way of being

From Lived Experience, Not Just Theory

As a queer, bi-racial therapist with ADHD, I know how exhausting it is to try to function in a world that wasn’t built with you in mind. I bring both clinical knowledge and real-world empathy to this work — and I believe deeply in the healing power of being seen, respected, and understood for who you are.
