Adult ADHD Therapy
My expertise in ADHD began in testing and extended into therapy for adults who are overwhelmed, misunderstood, and unsure where to start.
​
Wondering if you have ADHD?
Has a recent diagnosis changed how you see yourself?
​
You may struggle with relationships, staying organized, or regulating yourself. You may juggle career expectations while trying to suppress how hard things feel.
I’ve walked alongside others who felt the same and am here to help.
What Therapy With Me Is Like
We start by getting a clear picture of your strengths, relational/organizational patterns, and specific needs. We’ll go beyond the surface symptoms of inattention or impulsivity to understand who you are.
From there, we organize your world piece by piece. I guide you to identify what supports are missing, what is overwhelming, and what needs to change. I also coordinate care when needed and guide you through decisions about testing or medication referrals.

Hi there. I'm Mandy (she/her/她).
​​​​​
I work with adults with ADHD because I understand how layered this experience is.
​
My background in comprehensive ADHD testing allows me to see the full picture: your learning style, your personality traits, your history, your cognitive functioning, and how all of these interact. I walk with you to understand ADHD within the person rather than seeing it as a defining feature.
In our sessions, we slow down, explore patterns, and build strategies that match your actual needs. We’ll talk through emotional responses, test out new systems, and reflect on your strengths in a way that feels grounding and human. Even in the hard work, we still find space to laugh together.
​
Outside of work, I love listening to music and trying new recipes. My retired, racing greyhound and chihuahua mix are my trusty sidekicks. I also enjoy traveling with friends and family, recently through New England and going up Mt. Washington by cog railway.
Availability: I see clients in-person in North Seattle + offer online therapy in Washington State and PSYPACT states.​
