One of the nuances of autism is that you want connection with others but often feel anxious about going to social events.

It’s like the cartoon devil and angel on your shoulders. One says go and the other says don’t.

So you sign up for something thinking it’ll be great, but when it comes time to actually go, something in your brain stops you.

That anxiety is completely healthy and expected. They key is figuring out what will work for you to manage that anxiety, so you can make the best decision in the moment.

That’s exactly what I help my clients do. No cookie-cutter rule books, just strategies tailored to their unique needs.

If you’re in AZ, CO, or FL, I’m accepting new therapy clients. Visit my website to learn more!

ADHD and autism often go hand in hand, but that doesn’t mean they always get along…

Sometimes the ADHD is bored while the autism craves sticking with the routine.

Instead of letting them battle it out, give yourself permission to pause.

That brief moment can often be enough to figure out which need is more pressing in the moment.

When I’m suddenly reminded of something I was supposed to do, the ADHD part of my brain doesn’t seem to recall anything 😆

And that’s ok. Because I can’t force my brain to magically remember things. I mean, that would be great if I could, but it’s not realistic.

What I CAN do is create systems that work WITH my brain, rather than against it.

When you have ADHD, structure is your friend.

What structures do you put in place that help your brain?

You call it overthinking…your nervous system calls it SURVIVAL.

Overthinking about relationships doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you.

It’s actually the opposite.

Your brain is doing EXACTLY what it was designed to do.

Because our brains are wired to seek connection to other humans in order to survive in the wild.

It’s what we call attachment. And how we learn to attach to caregivers as young children impacts how we interact in our adult relationships.

This is what I help my clients do: we understand the patterns so that we can change them, so my clients develop healthy relationships.

When your ADHD hyperfocus decides to take over.

Sometimes it can be awesome! Like when you need to focus on something important and your brain wants to do it.

And sometimes it sucks. Because the thing your brain wants to focus on is taking you away from something else.

The key to managing it is noticing when it’s happening and having tools that work for YOUR brain, not someone else’s.

Cause even if two people have ADHD, they can have VERY different needs.

When you’re an autistic adult, you tend to get really good at masking.⁣
⁣
And sometimes, that’s ok. Every human does it to adapt to their immediate environment.⁣
⁣
The problem comes when you do it so often and so automatically that you lose yourself.⁣
⁣
Therapy can help you find a healthy place to land so that you can form meaningful connections with other people without sacrificing yourself.⁣

If you're feeling stuck on a roller coaster of, I don't know if I should stay with this person or leave, discernment counseling is the perfect service for you. ⁣
⁣
Here's how it works. We talk about what's really going on in the relationship. And we work on figuring out, is this fixable and do I want to fix it? Or am I really done and do I want to walk out the door?⁣
⁣
It's not about fixing the problems or trying to improve communication or anything like that. All it is, is we diagnose what the problems are.⁣
⁣
Then we talk about next steps. So if you do want to stay together and you want to do couples therapy what does that look like what are the goals…and if you both decide that you don't want to stay together then we can talk about that too how do we split in a way that makes it as comfortable as possible for both of us.⁣
It’s not about perfection it's not about magically fixing everything overnight.⁣
⁣
It's about figuring out what to do next so you finally get off the roller coaster and you can breathe. Learn more using the link in my bio.

When you’re mentally halfway out the door but not ready to leave, you’re in what’s called marital doubt—and it’s one of the most painful places to be.

If that’s where you are right now, this will help you understand what’s actually going on—and what to do next.

People usually keep serious doubts about their marriage to themselves. To be clear, we’re not talking about frustrations about the relationship or even feeling in a stuck pattern—instead, we’re talking about worries about whether the marriage will even survive . This is scary to think about. I...

It’s enough to make anyone sweat.

Because if you say something and they really are fine, you’re worried they’ll get annoyed with you asking.

And if you don’t say anything but they really are upset, you’re worried they’ll say you don’t “understand” them.

Let’s cut through the fog and get you both on the same page.
