Ways Therapy Can Help
I work with teens, young adults, and parents — including college students and early-career professionals navigating anxiety, stress, and life transitions — to help them:
Manage anxiety and stress at school, work, and in daily life
Navigate school or work as a neurodivergent individual, including ADHD and executive functioning challenges
Build practical executive functioning skills like organization, planning, and time management
Set realistic goals and create sustainable plans for change
Develop greater self-understanding, self-acceptance, and confidence
Understand school systems and advocate effectively for their needs
Strengthen parenting skills and confidence when supporting children or teens
Therapy is a collaborative process focused on helping you better understand your experiences and build skills that support long-term wellbeing.
What It’s Like to Work Together
Starting therapy can feel like a big step. Many people come in feeling overwhelmed, unsure where to begin, or worried that their struggles might not make sense to someone else.
My approach to therapy is thoughtful, collaborative, and practical. Together we work to better understand what’s happening beneath the surface, while also identifying strategies that can make everyday life feel more manageable.
Whether we are exploring anxiety, ADHD, executive functioning challenges, or parenting concerns, our work focuses on building insight, strengthening skills, and creating meaningful change over time.
Therapy is not about being “fixed.” It’s about developing a deeper understanding of yourself and learning new ways to move forward.

My Approach
As a licensed psychologist, my work is grounded in evidence-based practices and an understanding of how people grow, learn, and adapt over time.
In therapy, I draw on research in areas such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, executive functioning, and developmental psychology. My goal is to help clients better understand their experiences while also building practical strategies they can use in everyday life.
Whether I’m working with a teen navigating school stress, a young adult facing a life transition, or a parent supporting a child with ADHD, I aim to create a space that is thoughtful, collaborative, and focused on meaningful progress.
In addition to therapy, I regularly provide parent workshops and educational resources to help families better understand ADHD, executive functioning, and related challenges.
In addition to therapy services, Capital City Psychology offers educational workshops for parents who want to better understand and support their children.
These workshops provide practical, evidence-based guidance on topics such as:
Understanding ADHD and executive functioning challenges
Supporting emotional regulation and stress management
Navigating screen time and technology use
Building confidence in your parenting decisions
Workshops are designed to be informative, supportive, and practical, giving parents tools they can begin using right away.
Many parents find workshops to be a helpful first step in understanding their child’s needs and learning practical strategies for home and school.

Parent Workshops
Support for Midlife Moms Through Empowered Focus
Many of the parents I work with are also balancing demanding careers, family responsibilities, and the constant mental load of managing everyday life. As they learn more about ADHD and executive functioning through their child’s experience, some begin to notice similar patterns in themselves — feeling overwhelmed, struggling to stay organized, or constantly feeling like there isn’t enough time.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
In addition to my clinical work at Capital City Psychology, I offer coaching and educational programs for midlife working moms through my sister platform, Empowered Focus. These programs focus on practical strategies for managing overwhelm, strengthening executive functioning skills, and creating systems that make everyday life more sustainable.
