Empowering Women with ADHD to Thrive in a Fast-Paced World

Ring a Bell?

You're always looking through a mental kaleidoscope.

 

You're frustrated, disorganized, unfocused, or have difficulty getting things done.

You're ashamed or angry with yourself for failing everyone's expectations. 

You “white knuckle it” through your fears, sadness, anger, anxiety, or resentments.
 

You're struggling with the fear of being “found out,” harsh self-criticism, or the persistent feeling that you’re never good enough.

Your life feels totally out of control.

You're Not Alone Anymore

 

Hello, I'm Dr. Carole, welcome to my practice. I'm a licensed psychologist and Certified ADHD Specialist in California with over 25 years of experience.  ​

 

​I specialize in providing online therapy for Women with ADHD, or may have ADHD, many of whom also deal with Anxiety, Trauma, or OCD. I've experienced the unique social and biological challenges you face. Constantly pushing ourselves to overcome challenges and succeed worked—until it didn't. Many of us had no idea that our struggles had a name until we were well into adulthood - after having spent our lives feeling lost, inadequate, or out of control. Now we know the name: Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). 

Understanding your experiences and recognizing the name of your struggles is a powerful first step toward healing. My approach is to provide a supportive and empathetic environment where we can work together to address these challenges. I use evidence-based therapies tailored to your individual needs, focusing on empowering you to manage ADHD symptoms while also tackling related issues like anxiety, trauma, or OCD. My goal is to help you develop effective coping strategies, build resilience, strengthen your relationships, and foster a deeper sense of self-acceptance. You deserve to live a fulfilling life, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

​​Many Who Seek My Care...

  • Are highly successful, so they question whether they actually have ADHD.

  • ​​Find their minds impulsively wandering, except when they become hyper-focused on unimportant tasks.

  • Struggle with intense anxiety over everything they need to do.

  • Wear a mask to hide their struggles from the world.

  • Feel confused about why they can't seem to accomplish tasks they know they should be able to do.

  • Battle with traumatic memories that disrupt their daily lives and sense of security.

  • Feel trapped in repetitive, distressing thoughts and behaviors.

 

​​Sound familiar? You're understood here. Help is just a step away.

OCD Therapy

OCD can be all-consuming, and take control. Learn effective strategies to finally find lasting relief 

ADHD rarely travels alone. Conditions like anxiety, trauma, and OCD can often hitch a ride with ADHD amplifying your difficulties with concentrating, managing emotions, and maintaining your daily routines. Anxiety might heighten your feelings of restlessness or worry, trauma can trigger emotional responses that interfere with your focus, and OCD might impose rigid routines that further complicate your daily life. By addressing these interconnected challenges alongside ADHD, you can work towards achieving the focus and clarity you deserve. I'm here to help you understand and manage these complexities, empowering you to lead a more balanced and fulfilling life.
