Good evening everyone. After a 14 months social media absence I have returned and I am excited to be back.

As we often tell our clients, listen to your body and hear what it’s trying to tell you👂🏻

Sadly after having Covid 3x during the last 3 years, my health deteriorated from long Covid. During this time I had to step away and prioritize my health. It has been a uphill battle since but I’m finally at a point in my health journey that I have the capacity to resume.

I hope you all have been well and look forward to reconnecting and engaging going forward 😊

Just a reminder that the purpose of Krause Therapy is to provide a safe space where tools and resources can be provided as well as decreasing Mental Health stigma through increasing awareness.

Instagram posts do not replace real therapeutic sessions, however, if you have questions or wish to discuss the mental topics I post about, feel free to set up a consultation or DM me.

Motivation is frustrating when you have ADHD. Fluctuating back and forth between super motivated leading to periods of hyper focus and fixation, or no motivation and procrastinating on tasks for days, weeks, months, and sometimes years.

There are techniques that can help. The first part is understanding what types of techniques can work best for each individual.

Competition, Challenge, Passion, Interest, Importance, Novelty, and Creativity are all healthy techniques.

Often times however, people with ADHD rely solely on Urgency to help overcome Procrastination and improve Motivation. Urgency is inconsistent, and overtime people become dependent on it which is why it’s not a healthy technique.

Identifying Emotional & Time Blindness Barriers also help improve motivation because techniques can be implemented to counter and reduce the impact.

Lastly using visual aides and time chunking help individuals organize their tasks and steps, and increase their productivity, thus increasing dopamine produced by the tasks.

💫 Have you tried multiple ways and continue to struggle with managing ADHD when it comes to organizing your space? Here’s part 2 of helpful organization techniques.

💫These 5 tips will help you start feeling less overwhelmed, more organized, and less stressed.

💫 Organizing is stressful due to challenges with working memory, self-monitoring, task initiating, and planning as a result of having ADHD.

💫 Step 1: Categorize your home into different areas. Once you’ve categorized them, set small daily organization goals until that area is organized. For example, with a bedroom, designate the floor, closet, dresser, and tables as areas.
💫 Step 2: Set a goal. Example, pick up clothes from the floor for 15 minutes with a timer and put them either in the hamper or make a clean clothes pile. The next day continue sorting until all the clothes have been picked up.
💫 Step 3: Make a goal with your hamper and clean clothes pile.

💫 Creating a Sunday Basket is the idea of making mental space by having a designated basket where you write down your thoughts on paper or put tasks/items you need to do in one space, then every Sunday you revisit it and do some of the items in the basket. It is a designated place that you can put into your weekly routine. For example, say you have mail doom piles around your home. Put the mail into the Sunday basket until you make a mail organizing system.

💫 Now vs. Later is the idea of doing something immediately or within 5 minutes with the use of a timer, vs telling yourself you’ll do it later, but knowing you’ll procrastinate on it. It reduces procrastination, anxiety, overwhelm, and stress.

💫Have you ever been so busy that you didn’t know you were anxious or overwhelmed until you paused? Or ever been so anxious but didn’t know what to do?

💫With anxiety management, it’s about slowing your mind and body down. Bringing yourself back to the present moment, and checking in with yourself. Additionally, it’s about learning to recognize where you are feeling the anxiety within your body and what’s triggering it.

💫To do that you have to turn on your parasympathetic response to help your body relax and return to being calm when your autonomic nervous system has activated your fight, flight or freeze response.

💫These 5 tips help you turn on your parasympathetic nervous system.

I believe in meeting my clients where they are. My priority is creating a safe space where authentic and vulnerable collaboration can nurture positive change. I believe that while all individuals possess the ability to be healthy and happy, sometimes life events, obstacles or unhealthy patterns cause us to lose confidence in our ability to achieve our goals. The right support can elevate hope and get us back on track.

I have a wealth of experience working with teens and young adults on the autism spectrum, or diagnosed with learning disabilities, or who have IEP’s and are struggling with emotional and academic challenges.

I have had success with adults and teens who seek to resolve anxiety, adaptive life skills, depression, and work/school related stress. I am primarily guided by Humanistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy.
