Empowering Neurodivergent Kids, Teens, & Adults with ADHD, Anxiety, & More

Welcome, I’m Happy You’re Here

If you made it to my website, chances are we have something in common. For my part, for the past 30 years I have worked with neurodiverse people of all ages on overcoming challenges with attention, learning, emotions and behavior to create rich, satisfying lives. Often, what I do translates into helping people improve executive functioning skills, cope with anxiety and manage other mental health issues. From that place, they can develop greater confidence and self-acceptance.

In my early fifties, I started to realize that my challenges with emotions, time management and overwhelm were having a bigger impact on my life than they had before. There’s new research that explores how, for some women, the reduction in estrogen at menopause is partially responsible for the diminishment of these and other executive functioning skills.

For me this was absolutely true and it’s very interesting how ADHD, anxiety and mental health in general can change over time and through different circumstances. So, if you’re someone who never thought you had ADHD symptoms or anxiety and now you do, you’re not alone.

I believe that people who live with ADHD and neurodivergence can thrive every day. You can create a life where you share your gifts and enjoy rich, meaningful connections with people you love and care about. The truth is life becomes easier when you have practical strategies and caring support to manage what comes your way.

And what I know after doing this work for all these years is that life keeps moving. It brings challenges and stress, good times and bad, and it affects us all in different ways. This diverse world we live in keeps going, and so can you. My life-long passion has been unpacking ADHD, neurodiversity, and anxiety so that you and I can live healthier, happier lives.

Here you’ll find tools and resources to develop effective strategies for successful living. And should you have a need that falls within my lane of expertise that you don’t find on my site, please reach out to let me know. Chances are, I’m working on it as we speak!
