Supporting those struggling to keep it all together.
Virtual therapy in Arizona & Utah for adults navigating ADHD, executive functioning challenges, and the emotional impact of living in a world that wasn’t designed for the way your brain works.
ADHD is about so much more than attention.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can affect far more than focus. It can shape how someone manages daily responsibilities, makes decisions, regulates emotions, experiences relationships, and understands themselves.
Many adults have spent years believing they're lazy, disorganized, or "not trying hard enough," when they're actually navigating an undiagnosed or misunderstood neurodevelopmental condition. Therapy can help make sense of these patterns and develop strategies that work with your brain — not against it.

Develop and optimize strategies that make everyday life feel more manageable.
Executive functioning skills help us plan, prioritize, remember, regulate impulses, shift between tasks, and monitor our behavior. ADHD can make some of these skills more difficult to consistently access.
This may look like:
Inhibitory control: Impulsivity, interrupting, acting before thinking, or difficulty pausing
Cognitive flexibility: Difficulty shifting gears, adapting to changes, or letting go of an idea or plan
Working memory: Forgetting what you were doing, losing track of information, or walking into a room and forgetting why
Task initiation & follow-through: Knowing what needs to be done but struggling to get started or finish
Planning & organization: Difficulty prioritizing, sequencing tasks, or keeping track of responsibilities
Self-monitoring: Missing mistakes, overlooking details, or having difficulty noticing and correcting something until later
Time management: Time blindness, underestimating how long things will take, or frequently running late

Years of struggling with things that seem easier for others can take a toll on how you see yourself. For some people, anxiety, low mood, or chronic self-doubt may be connected to years of feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or like they're never doing enough.
This can show up as:
Chronic self-criticism and self-doubt
Feeling “lazy,” unmotivated, or incapable
Shame around productivity or follow-through
Perfectionism and people-pleasing
Comparing yourself to others
Feeling behind or like you're not doing enough
Anxiety, low mood, or emotional exhaustion

Explore how ADHD, relationships, and past experiences can shape the way you navigate life today.
ADHD can affect relationships and major life transitions in ways that aren't always obvious. For many women, becoming a parent brings new demands for organization, flexibility, emotional regulation, and time management, often making previously manageable ADHD challenges much harder to navigate.
Topics to explore may include:
Childhood experiences and family dynamics
Relational trauma and attachment
Communication and relationship patterns
Boundaries and people-pleasing
Parenting demands, division of labor, and the mental load of motherhood
Navigating pregnancy and postpartum
Changes in identity and sense of self

Hi, I’m Kara!
I’m a licensed therapist specializing in adult ADHD and the many ways it can affect how we function, feel, and relate to ourselves and others. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, with an emphasis on understanding why something feels difficult rather than simply trying to work harder at it.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can put down the pressure to have everything figured out and begin making sense of the patterns that have been affecting your life. Whether you're navigating an ADHD diagnosis, burnout, anxiety, relationships, or self esteem issues, my goal is to help you better understand yourself and build a life that feels more manageable and sustainable.
Understanding yourself changes everything.
When you understand why something is difficult, it becomes easier to move away from shame and toward meaningful change. Therapy can help you make sense of your ADHD, develop strategies for everyday life, and better understand the experiences that have shaped how you see yourself and navigate the world.
You don't have to figure it all out on your own.
If you're ready to better understand yourself, feel more supported, and find strategies that make life feel more manageable, I'd love to connect.
