Therapy for…
Anxiety & ADHD in Women
Trying to fit in has always been a challenge.
Now you feel like you’re hanging on by a thread.
If you’re here on this page, then feeling different from everyone else probably isn’t new to you. Growing up, you probably felt isolated from your friends at school. Even if you got good grades, it was always at the expense of staying up late and pushing yourself hard. Only the things that interested you the most came easily; everything else felt like an uphill battle.
Your mind never seems to stop going, almost feeling like a never-ending spiderweb inside your head. You overthink, forget things, lose track of time, or feel stuck when you’re trying to start something important. Sometimes you’re incredibly productive. Other times, it feels impossible to focus at all. And all of that seems to come with this lingering frustration that keeps building until you snap and do something you’re worried you’ll regret.
And now, there’s often this overwhelming anxiety and shame—constantly trying to stay on top of everything so nothing falls apart, and feeling bad that you can’t seem to get it right. Maybe you keep criticizing yourself, push your emotions aside and tell yourself to “stop being a baby.”
You’re probably tired of feeling like you’re the problem.
Maybe you’re…
→ Feeling overwhelmed by simple tasks or decisions.
→ Feeling on edge on a daily basis.
→ Feeling out of control or “too emotional” at times
→ Struggling to cope with a never ending anxiety that keeps your thoughts spiraling.
Therapy can
help you…
-
A big part of this work is shifting out of self-criticism and into self-understanding, learning to trust your judgement so you can feel confident in your decisions.
-
ADHD tends to come with a lot of shame that society places on us, telling us we should feel “bad” for how our ADHD impacts our functioning.
In therapy together we learn to stop the thought spiraling that can result from the shame being triggered and teach you how to navigate those loops so that you can get out.
-
When your brain is constantly running, it’s hard to feel settled. We help calm the underlying nervous system patterns driving that sense of urgency.
You can stop working against yourself.
