Reclaiming Your Voice as a Neurodivergent Woman
So many neurodivergent women grow up absorbing stories that were never theirs to begin with — stories about being:
“too much,”
“too sensitive,”
“too scattered,”
“too emotional,"
"too lazy."
"not friendly enough."
“not living up to potential.”
Over time, those messages settle into the body as shame, self‑doubt, and a quiet belief that something is fundamentally wrong.
A Comprehensive Assessment offers you answers.
Therapy is where we rewrite that narrative.
Together, we explore how ADHD has shaped your life — not as a flaw, but as a pattern of strengths, sensitivities, creativity, and resilience that were never recognized or supported. We look at the internalized messages you have carried for years and begin reframing them into a story that actually reflects who you are: a smart, intuitive, deeply creative woman who has always marched to the beat of her own drum, even when the world tried to hand her a different rhythm.
We are more than a therapy and comprehensive assessment practice—we are a movement. At Rebellious Women Empowerment Therapy, we help women reclaim their stories & break free from limiting narratives.
Neurodivergent & LGBTQIA+‑affirming evaluations for women and gender‑diverse adults.
Get the clarity, language, and validation you’ve been searching for.
Our assessments are trauma‑informed, identity‑affirming, and designed to help you understand your brain.
Common Goals in ADHD‑Focused Therapy
Understanding your ADHD or a partner's ADHD
Making sense of symptoms, patterns, and communication differences.
Learning about executive function (EF)
Understanding how EF challenges — which are standard in ADHD — can impact daily life, increase vulnerability to trauma, and contribute to internalized shame and negative self‑talk.
Exploring how ADHD uniquely impacts women
Including masking, emotional regulation, rejection sensitivity, and the pressure to perform perfection.
Adjusting to a late‑life ADHD diagnosis
Integrating the relief, grief, clarity, and identity shifts that come with finally having answers.
Building self‑acceptance and identity clarity
Reclaiming strengths, developing skills, and creating a life that fits your brain rather than forcing your brain to fit the systems in which you live.
Navigating accommodations, burnout, transitions, and environments that allow you to thrive.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (OR) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (WA) with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Oregon State University. My work is grounded in social justice, systems theory, and the cultural forces that shape identity.
I specialize in ADHD, trauma, and identity‑affirming care for women and LGBTQ+ adults. After receiving my own ADHD‑Inattentive diagnosis at 44, I pursued advanced training in executive functioning, psychopharmacology, trauma, and disability support, earning certification as an ADHD Certified Clinical Specialist.
I founded this practice to help women reclaim their voice, values, and sense of self. Today, I focus on trauma‑informed therapy and comprehensive ADHD assessment for adults — especially those diagnosed later in life.
It’s an honor to support people as they understand their brains, heal from shame, and step into their authentic lives.

The basis of confidence is trust. Self-confidence is technically just "self-trust." When one trusts themselves, the rest begins to fall into place. Through exploration and tool acquisition in a therapeutic environment, the individual can build confidence in themselves and their external relationships. They will learn to create goals and meet them. Discover what it is that is causing symptoms such as depression or anxiety, and get to the root of things so they can be free of their suffering rather than just masking the symptoms.
