Adult ADHD · Individual psychotherapy
You may know what you want to do and still find it difficult to start, follow through, or keep up with everything. I work with adults with ADHD who want help with the practical and emotional parts of daily life.
Perhaps deadlines keep becoming emergencies, unfinished tasks weigh on you, or a system that worked for a while no longer fits. You might be tired of feeling that you should be able to manage things differently.
We can begin with a recent situation at work, at home, or in a relationship. I want to understand what happens for you, what you have already tried, and where you would like more support.
I listen closely, ask questions, and offer feedback. Together, we can look at where you get stuck and consider a manageable next step: breaking a task into smaller parts, making room for a pause, or asking more clearly for what you need.
We also pay attention to the feelings around these experiences. Self-criticism, frustration, or worry about disappointing someone can deserve as much attention as the unfinished task. We can revisit what you try and adjust it to fit your life.
You may want to talk about misunderstandings with a partner, pressure at work, or how repeated difficulties have affected your confidence. Our conversations can help you put words to your experience and consider another perspective.
My approach is active and collaborative. We focus on your life now and bring in the past when it helps with a present concern. I want you to leave with something useful: clearer understanding, a different way of seeing a situation, or something new to try.
Try a practical exercise for a task you have been putting off. Choose what makes starting difficult and find a small step to try.
Yes. We can discuss a current problem, consider an approach to try, and talk about what happened afterward. We can also explore the expectations, emotions, and relationship patterns that are part of the situation.
You can bring that uncertainty to the consultation. We can talk about your concerns and what kind of support may be appropriate.
Yes. I offer individual psychotherapy for adults online across Colorado, with in-person sessions by request at my Denver office. A free 15-minute consultation gives us a chance to discuss what you’re looking for and whether we’re a good fit.
