ADHD Counseling & Coaching | Telehealth in AZ, IA, OR

Skillful, shame-free support that honors how your nervous system learned to cope - so you can focus, follow through, and feel connected. Serving Arizona, Iowa, and Oregon via secure tele-health. In-person intensives available in Phoenix, AZ.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY - ADHD & ATTACHMENT

ADHD isn’t a character flaw. It’s a nervous system difference, shaped by biology and early experiences of safety and connection. Together, we map patterns like time blindness, task initiation struggles, and rejection sensitivity, pairing practical supports with trauma-responsive therapy. You’ll learn how attachment wounds amplify executive-function fatigue and how to build micro-habits that stick - without hustling for worthiness.

COUPLES & RELATIONSHIP SUPPORT

ADHD can turn everyday logistics into friction. In couples sessions, we keep blame off the table and focus on the system: co-designing rhythms for tasks, intimacy, and repair. We’ll practice DBT-informed communication (DEAR MAN, GIVE, FAST) and interest-based negotiation so both partners feel seen without power struggles.

WISE WOMEN - MIDLIFE ADHD CARE

Peri-menopause and menopause can amplify ADHD symptoms. We’ll take a holistic, shame-free look at changes in focus, memory, and mood, tailoring supports to your season and integrating trauma-responsive therapy. Collaboration with your medical team ensures care that respects your wisdom and your body.

ADHD COACHING

If you’re looking for practical strategies, structure, accountability, and personalized support, ADHD coaching can help you move from overwhelm to clarity. Coaching focuses on skills like planning, follow-through, time management, task initiation, emotional regulation, and building systems that work for your unique brain.

Where therapy helps you heal the why, coaching supports you with the how - helping you design routines, habits, and environments that make daily life easier and more sustainable. Coaching is available via telehealth in Arizona, Iowa, and Oregon, with in-person intensives in Phoenix, AZ.

What You Can Expect Working With Me

My approach blends trauma‑responsive therapy, attachment‑informed insight, and practical ADHD coaching tools. Together we will:

  • Understand how your ADHD + history shape your reactions, patterns, and needs

  • Build routines that match your actual energy, not the one you wish you had

  • Reduce shame, internal criticism, and the “why can’t I just…?” loop

  • Strengthen communication in all relationships — partners, children, coworkers

  • Learn emotional regulation, mindfulness, and body‑based strategies

  • Develop systems for planning, organization, time management, and motivation

  • Create lasting changes that don’t depend on willpower alone

How ADHD Counseling & Coaching Work Together

Therapy helps you understand your story, your beliefs, and the emotional patterns shaped by your past. Coaching enables you to build the systems, habits, and supports you need in the present.

Blending the two means:

  • We honor your nervous system

  • We address the impact of trauma, attachment, and lived experience

  • We develop practical tools that make daily life easier

My Lens & Approach

My work is grounded in:

  • A neurodiversity‑affirming framework

  • Attachment theory and trauma‑informed care

  • Polyvagal‑informed nervous system work

  • DBT‑inspired communication and emotional regulation skills

  • ADHD coaching strategies rooted in compassion, not pressure

  • A deeply collaborative, shame‑free therapeutic relationship

About My ADHD Specialization

I specialize in supporting adults, couples, and midlife women with ADHD. I understand how ADHD doesn’t exist alone - it weaves through attachment, identity, relationships, work, parenting, and life transitions. My work honors both the emotional depth and the practical realities of living with a neurodivergent brain.

Who This Work Is For

You may find ADHD‑focused counseling or coaching helpful if you are living with patterns of overwhelm, inconsistency, or emotional fatigue, even when you’re trying your best. Many people who come to this work describe long-standing feelings of being “too much,” “not enough,” or chronically misunderstood.

This space is for adults navigating ADHD with layers of attachment wounds, shame, trauma, perfectionism, or relationship stress. It’s especially supportive for individuals and couples who experience friction around communication, follow‑through, or emotional regulation, and for midlife women whose ADHD symptoms intensify with hormonal and life transitions.
