Hi, I’m Erin.

I help adults with ADHD find peace in a loud world.

My goal as a therapist is to meet you where you are. We’ll work towards healing, understanding, and making peace with your uniquely wired brain.

I work primarily with ADHDers - some of whom are also Autistic (AuDHD) and/or have learning differences like Dyslexia - and I’m passionate about providing neurodivergent-affirming care. This approach views neurodivergence (ND) not as a flaw but rather a distinct brain difference with its own strengths and challenges.

I’ve worked in the mental health field as a licensed clinical social worker for 15 years.

I’ve seen a lot.

I didn’t start out working with adults with ADHD; in fact, the focus during most of my career was with children + families.

I completed my graduate training at adolescent residential treatment facilities, worked on an Intensive In-home team providing home-based family therapy for many years, and was a “liaison-teacher-counselor” at a state-run residential school, helping families in need of intensive mental health and educational support.

I enjoyed working with families in crisis, meeting them where they were with loving kindness and a steady hand, instead of the judgement and fear they were used to.

Over time, as my own family grew, I longed for a slower pace of life and a more flexible schedule. With those goals in mind, I opened my own practice in 2021 and set out to serve folks who were looking for a different kind of therapy.

I’d spent the previous 18 years (since my own diagnosis) learning about ADHD and found myself married to a partner with ADHD and raising ND children. It was a no-brainer to focus on the issue that seemed to consume every aspect of my life. Many of my early clients were either newly diagnosed or questioning, and I loved being a soft place for them to land.

Nowadays, it seems like everyone is talking about Adult ADHD. Specifically in women (finally!), and even more specifically in the two groups in which I am most interested: new mothers and perimenopausal women. It’s such an exciting time to be doing this work - and, as cheesy as it sounds, I’ve truly found my calling. While I’m passionate about women’s mental and physical health, I also enjoy working with men and couples.

Simply put: ADHDers, and the people who love them, are my people.

My Identities + Values

🤍 I’m a social worker, a social justice advocate, a psychotherapist + a coach

🤍 I’m a mom, a wife, and a daughter to people who mean the world to me

🤍 I’m a cis-gendered, heterosexual white woman in my 40’s. My pronouns are she/her/hers.

🤍 I believe that women’s rights are human rights. I‘m an intersectional feminist + believe that “women belong in all places where decisions are being made,” as the late great RBG said.

🤍 I strive to be radically accepting + affirming. My practice is grounded in antiracism + inclusivity. I’m committed to supporting the LGBTQ + BIPOC+ neurodivergent communities, and ensuring that every individual feels safe, valued, and heard.

  • I’m trained as a facilitator in the Fair Play Method based on the best selling book by Eve Rodsky—a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers a new way to divvy up domestic responsibilities. We'll explore what the invisible work in your family actually entails, how to get it all done efficiently, and why Eve says our homes are our most important organization.

    Fair Play helps you prioritize what's important to your family and who should take the lead on every task, from laundry to homework to dinner. No more "default parenting." Learn to partner and parent with intention and as a team.
