Specialized ADHD Therapy for Women
As an ADHD therapist for women, I specialize in helping adult women navigate anxiety, burnout, masking, and the emotional impact of late diagnosis. With over 30 years of professional experience, I provide therapy designed specifically for how ADHD presents in women.
Many women with ADHD spend years feeling misunderstood — by teachers, partners, workplaces, and even previous therapists. ADHD in women often looks different. Instead of visible hyperactivity, women frequently experience chronic overwhelm, internalized shame, perfectionism, and anxiety.
My work as an ADHD therapist for women focuses on helping you understand your brain, strengthen executive functioning skills, and reconnect with your authentic self.
Why ADHD Is Different in Women
ADHD in adult women is often missed or misdiagnosed. Many women:
- Learn to mask their symptoms
- Develop anxiety as a coping strategy
- Internalize mistakes as personal failures
- Experience emotional sensitivity
- Struggle with chronic burnout
Therapy for women with ADHD must address both executive function challenges and the emotional patterns that develop over time.
ADHD and Anxiety in Women
Anxiety commonly overlaps with ADHD in women. When attention and organization feel inconsistent, life can feel overwhelming.
You may experience:
- Constant overthinking
- Difficulty relaxing
- Fear of forgetting important tasks
- Emotional reactivity
- Sensitivity to criticism
As an ADHD therapist for women, I help clients untangle anxiety from ADHD patterns while building practical regulation skills.
Therapy for Late-Diagnosed ADHD in Women
Receiving an ADHD diagnosis later in life can bring relief — and grief.
Many women reflect on years of misunderstanding themselves. In therapy, we create space to process that experience while developing tools that support your present and future.
My Approach to ADHD Therapy for Women
My approach integrates:
- Evidence-based therapy
- Executive functioning support
- Self-compassion work
- Boundary setting
- Nervous system regulation
- Identity exploration
Effective ADHD therapy for women must go beyond symptom management. It includes rebuilding trust in yourself. My apporach is explicity neurodivergent affirming. I am not deficit based or disease model focused.
