THERAPY FOR ADULT ADHD AND COMPLEX TRAUMA
Neurodivergence isn’t a disorder — it’s a superpower.
And I’m here to help you harness it.
If you’ve spent your life feeling like you’re hopelessly lost in the sauce, therapy for adult ADHD and CPTSD can help you tap into your unique strengths, make sense of the world around you — and confidently own your place in it.
For many people with ADHD or complex trauma, the experience of being misunderstood isn’t just occasional — it’s constant.
Growing up feeling like you don’t fit in — well, anywhere — shapes how you see yourself. You start questioning your own experiences. You overanalyze, overexplain, and overthink how to communicate so people will finally get you. Instead of just feeling your emotions, you got caught up in how to translate them — because the world didn’t seem to speak your language.
But what if the problem was never you? What if the way your mind works isn’t a problem to be fixed—but proof of how resilient you are? And the best part? Once you realize that's true — then you start to see yourself in a way that finally makes sense.

What Therapy Can Help With
THERAPY FOR ADULT ADHD
Whether you're navigating a late ADHD diagnosis, were diagnosed in childhood, or even just suspect you might have ADHD — I've got you covered. Therapy can help you understand how your unique (and brilliant) brain works so you finally feel like you're in the driver's seat of your own life.
Here’s what’s possible when you have the right support:
* Learn how to balance your energy so you can get off the rollercoaster of hyperfocus, exhaustion, and shutdown.
* Replace negative self-talk with real understanding of how ADHD impacts you—and develop self-compassion instead of self-criticism.
* Learn ways to bring focus and calm to your mind so racing thoughts, distraction, and brain fog stop running your life.
* Whether it’s friendships, dating, or family, you’ll learn to navigate communication struggles and feel more connected to others.
* Therapy for adult ADHD can help you feel safe to show up as your real self, without constantly performing or pretending to be “normal” — whatever that even means.
WHO’S WITH ME?
Complex trauma can feel like your emotions are running the show—panic attacks, shutdowns, chronic anxiety, or anger that feels impossible to control. It's exhausting. But healing doesn’t mean getting rid of your emotions. It means understanding them. So you can move from feeling overwhelmed and stuck to empowered and in control of your own story.
Here's what's possible with therapy:
* Learn how to process your feelings so you stop feeling constantly hijacked by them.
* Gain the clarity and confidence to express your needs and boundaries — without guilt or shame — so you can better advocate for yourself.
* Conflict won't have to feel like a trigger. You'll develop tools to navigate challenges with loved ones without spiraling.
* Increase your ability to stay present and grounded instead of going into fight or flight in stressful situations.
* Your feelings aren't the problem — they're signals, like lights on a car dashboard. Therapy helps you look at, and interpret, those signals so you can respond to what they're trying to tell you.

Q: How do I find a complex trauma therapist near me?
If you’re a Colorado resident, then you’re off to a great start landing on this page! My approach to therapy for complex trauma is neuro-affirming and trauma-informed, meaning we focus on healing without shame, addressing both emotional dysregulation and the mind-body connection to better manage complex trauma and dissociation or emotional flashbacks.
