Understanding ADHD

You might be experiencing

  • Difficulty focusing, following through, or finishing tasks
  • Chronic overwhelm, time blindness, or disorganization
  • Emotional dysregulation or rejection sensitive dysphoria
  • Restlessness, impulsivity, or difficulty sitting with boredom
  • A pattern of starting things with excitement but losing momentum
  • Shame or frustration at the gap between effort and results
  • Masking your struggles to appear "fine" or "high-functioning"
  • Anxiety, burnout, or low self-esteem tied to years of ADHD challenges

Types of Concerns I Support

ADHD rarely travels alone. Some of the experiences clients come to therapy with include:

  • Inattentive, hyperactive, and combined type ADHD
  • Late diagnosis and identity adjustment in adults
  • ADHD in women and girls, including masking and missed diagnosis
  • Emotional dysregulation and rejection sensitive dysphoria
  • Executive function challenges, including time, organization, and follow-through
  • ADHD-related anxiety, burnout, and depression
  • Shame, self-esteem, and the emotional toll of years of struggle
  • ADHD in relationships and at work

How I Approach ADHD Therapy

My approach to ADHD is strengths-based and neurodiversity-affirming. I don't try to make you think or work like a neurotypical brain. I help you understand how your brain actually works and build a life that fits it, always tailored to your specific presentation.

Frequently Asked Questions About ADHD Therapy

Therapy helps people with ADHD understand how their brain works, develop practical strategies for everyday challenges, and address the emotional impact of living with ADHD, including shame, anxiety, low self-esteem, and burnout. While therapy does not replace medication, it is a powerful complement that builds skills and self-understanding that last a lifetime.

ADD is an older term that was previously used to describe ADHD without hyperactivity. Today, the clinical term is ADHD, which has three presentations: inattentive type (formerly ADD), hyperactive-impulsive type, and combined type. Many people, particularly women and girls, are diagnosed later in life with the inattentive presentation, which is often overlooked.

Yes. Adult ADHD therapy is increasingly recognised as an essential support, particularly for those who were diagnosed late or who have spent years masking their symptoms. Therapy helps adults with ADHD understand their patterns, work through the emotional toll of years of struggle, and build sustainable systems for daily life.

ADHD in women and girls is often missed or misdiagnosed because it tends to present differently than the hyperactive stereotypes. Common signs include chronic overwhelm, emotional sensitivity, difficulty with time and organization, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and anxiety. Many women are not diagnosed until adulthood and carry significant shame about struggles that were never properly understood.

No. You do not need a formal diagnosis to benefit from therapy. If you relate to ADHD symptoms, difficulty focusing, emotional dysregulation, chronic disorganization, or feeling like you are always falling behind, therapy can help you explore what is going on and develop strategies that work for your brain.

Yes. I offer virtual ADHD therapy to anyone located in Ontario. Many clients with ADHD actually find online therapy more accessible, there is no commute, and you can attend from wherever feels most comfortable and focused for you.

ADHD, anxiety, and depression frequently co-occur. Years of struggling, underperforming, and feeling misunderstood can lead to chronic anxiety and low mood. Therapy addresses both the ADHD itself and the emotional layers that have built up around it, so you can move forward with a fuller understanding of yourself.

Understanding Your Brain Changes Everything

Therapy can help you understand yourself more deeply, build systems that actually work for you, and let go of the shame that was never yours to carry.
