You’re smart, capable, and doing your best... but it still feels like too much.
Maybe you’re constantly overwhelmed, burned out, or struggling to stay organized. You start the week with good intentions… but end up stuck, drained, or beating yourself up for falling behind.
Maybe your emotions feel too big or too buried ~you shut down, lash out, or freeze in the moments that matter most.
Maybe you carry guilt from how you were raised ~you feel like you’re parenting without a roadmap.
Maybe you're exhausted from trying to explain yourself in relationships ~you're tired of feeling unseen, unheard, or like you’re always “too much” for the people around you.
Maybe you've tried therapy before and you still feel like no one quite connected the dots.
If any of this feels familiar ~you’re not alone and you're not failing.
You're carrying more than most people realize, and it's okay to get support.
When you work with a therapist who understands both ADHD and complex emotional patterns, things start to shift
~not overnight, but in ways that finally make sense.
You begin to:
Understand your behaviors instead of blaming yourself for them
Regulate emotions more easily, even under pressure
Set and hold boundaries without guilt or second-guessing
Communicate more clearly with your partner, kids, or coworkers
Feel less overwhelmed and more confident in your own brain
Let go of survival strategies that no longer serve you
Recognize what healthy relationships actually feel like
Most of all, you stop feeling like you have to “fix” yourself
~you start learning how to work with
your brain and nervous system...
not against them.
You don’t need to be perfect to feel better... just willing to take one small step at a time.
I’m a licensed professional counselor with over 21 years of experience supporting clients with ADHD, Autism, emotional regulation struggles, and complex family dynamics. I offer practical, individualized therapy for teens, adults, couples, and parents ~I offer a unique and special focus on how neurodivergence and attachment patterns impact relationships, identity, and day-to-day life.
I am also someone who was diagnosed with ADHD at age 36, a parent to three amazing kids with ADHD (one who also has autism), a Gigi to 3 beautiful grandchildren (with one on the way), and someone who understands how exhausting it can feel to keep “holding it all together while everything falls apart..."
"I GET IT!"
3 Simple Steps
You're not starting over ~you're starting from experience, with support.
Whether you’re looking for clarity, connection, or a better way forward, these services are designed to fit your life ~not the other way around.
For those navigating ADHD, Autism, emotional intensity, or the long-term effects of growing up in a high-stress or emotionally unpredictable environment. Support is tailored to your nervous system, your history, and your goals.
Thoughtful, practical therapy for couples who feel stuck in miscommunication, frustration, or emotional distance
~especially when ADHD, Autism, or reactivity are part of the dynamic.
A thoughtful, clinically grounded process that provides clarity and direction. Includes a thorough evaluation and guidance on the next steps for parents ~whether that’s diagnosis or further support.
Deep, focused support for when you feel stuck or want to move through emotional blocks more quickly. Ideal for clients with long-standing trauma or patterns that haven’t shifted through traditional talk therapy.
Offered to pre-licensed counselors in Pennsylvania and practicing therapists seeking case consultation, clarity on complex presentations, or neurodivergent-informed guidance ~real-world experience delivered with compassion and clarity.
For parents of children, with ADHD, Autism, etc., who feel overwhelmed or unsure how to support their child’s emotions, behaviors, or development. Practical strategies ~not one-size-fits-all advice.
You're carrying more than most people see.
If you’re doing your best to manage emotions, responsibilities, relationships, or your child’s needs and still feel like it’s never enough... you’re not alone.
Whether you’ve been recently diagnosed, struggling quietly for years, or trying to help a loved one who’s overwhelmed... support is available.
You don’t need to have it all figured out before reaching out.
Let’s talk about what’s working, what’s not, and what kind of support might actually help ~no pressure, no judgment.
"I've never had a therapist who actually helped me before Chris. I knew it was possible, so I kept trying...for years. It finally paid off and it's better than I thought it would be. Chris gets me, she has practical tools, and she never makes me feel judged. I used to leave therapy with a splitting headache and a boatload of frustration. After I talk to Chris, I'm lighter and ready to tackle my week."

Yes ~all sessions are held through a 100% secure, HIPAA-compliant Telehealth video platform
I am licensed in Pennsylvania and registered to provide Telehealth in Florida and South Carolina
I offer a practical, experience-informed approach ~grounded in 21+ years of working in the mental health field and lived experience with ADHD. I focus on what actually works for your nervous system and life, not just talking through problems. Many clients tell me this feels like the first time therapy "actually made sense."
Yes ~and that’s one reason many people feel at ease here. I was diagnosed as an adult after years of burnout and frustration. That experience helps me spot what others miss, and offer support without judgment or unrealistic expectations.
Yes ~some people come to me just for an assessment; others already have a diagnosis and only want therapy. We’ll talk through what you need and decide together.
Not at all. I specialize in supporting people who’ve always felt “different,” overwhelmed, or misunderstood ~whether or not there's a formal diagnosis. Many of my clients are navigating trauma, stress, emotional reactivity, or parenting challenges.
Therapy is an investment, and I understand it’s not always easy. I choose not to work with insurance so I can offer care that’s more private, individualized, and aligned with what you actually need ~not what a company says you need or they will approve.
Many clients are still able to get reimbursement through Mentaya, a tool that makes submitting claims simple. I’m happy to walk you through your options during your consultation. We can check your benefits and I submit the claims... you don't have any of the paperwork stress.
Whether you're feeling stuck, unsure where to begin, or simply need someone who understands how your brain works

Let’s talk about what kind of support makes sense for you, your child, or your relationship ~no pressure, no commitment.
You’ll leave with clarity on next steps and a better sense of whether we’re a good fit.
