About

After years of doing this work, here is what I know for sure: nobody is actually lazy. Every so-called character flaw I have ever been shown turned out to be a strategy that once made sense. Adult ADHD is my focus, especially for people diagnosed late who are suddenly re-reading their whole lives in a new light. We work on the thought patterns laid down through years of being misread, because the self-criticism often weighs more than the symptoms themselves. I spent a stretch in administration before returning to the room where the real work happens, and I came back certain this is where I belong. I bring a steady, grounded presence; clients tell me nothing they say knocks me off balance. More than one person has described our sessions as like talking to a friend with a very particular skill set. I will take that. If you are ready to be understood rather than evaluated, I would be glad to hear from you.
