Sound familiar?
When folks first come to therapy, they share statements like these with me all the time. They are tired of getting stuck on executing, feeling overwhelmed and anxious, and procrastinating things that matter to them. They get by, but they are ready for change.
So, how can therapy help?
Therapy for ADHD x Anxiety
Understand your brain and learn to work WITH it not against it.
By leveraging neuroscience and the latest research, we will identify what helps your brain be successful and what makes it feel stuck. We honor your experience and your strengths, and we work with it. Together, we can develop systems and practical skills to help you build the life you want and feel good about it.
Manage anxiety and stress by learning how to regulate your emotions.
When you feel overwhelmed and behind, anxiety can feel like a constant presence. Together, we will help you learn your anxiety by identifying and targeting somatic symptoms. Using evidence-based approaches like DBT and mindfulness practices, we will grow your toolbox to help you not only respond to anxiety and stress but also reduce and prevent it in the long-term.
Feel confident in yourself and your abilities.
Negative self-talk can develop a cycle of inhibiting feelings and inaction. Together, we will learn how to identify these negative beliefs and then challenge and reframe them into more realistic and encouraging thoughts. Using strategies from CBT and Nonviolent Communication practices, we will foster positive self-talk that will allow more empowering feelings and actions to bloom.
