ADHD, Anxiety, and Perfectionism

You hold yourself to high standards. But anxiety, perfectionism, executive dysfunction, or trouble getting started keep getting in the way, and the guilt that follows makes it even harder. Together, we’ll break the patterns that keep you stuck and rewrite harsh self-talk into something more compassionate. We’ll also build practical tools for focus, follow-through, and motivation. The goal is to help you move toward the career, financial, and relationship goals that matter to you, and to live more in line with who you really are.

Areas I work with: ADHD, OCD, anxiety, perfectionism, executive dysfunction.

I have ADHD, and I wasn’t diagnosed until years after I’d been called “too much,” “too sensitive,” “smart but doesn’t try,” and “passionate but inconsistent.” I know what it’s like to have big ideas and real ambition, and a brain moving so fast that it’s hard to organize, break things into steps, or even start a simple task, followed by emotional dysregulation, task paralysis, and a cycle of shame and guilt.

In our work, we’ll figure out why your current systems keep failing and build ones that fit how your brain works: tools for task management, emotional regulation, and getting through the day, plus a clear look at what actually motivates you. I’ll help you take realistic steps and hold yourself accountable, without the harsh self-criticism. ADHD is hard. A bad week, or a system that stops working, doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It means we adjust and try the next thing.
