Be more who you really are, without apology.
Therapy in Houston, Texas | Minneapolis & St. Paul, Minnesota | Denver, Colorado
Living in a world not built for your brain can leave you overwhelmed, misunderstood, and constantly trying to mask your real experience just to get by. You’ve spent so much energy managing what’s expected of you that you’ve lost touch with what actually works for you.
​
Whether you suspect you’re neurodivergent or you’ve already been diagnosed—especially with ADHD or Autism—you might feel like your mind is always running, but your energy can’t keep up. You crave freedom and structure at the same time. You want to feel capable without constantly compensating.
​Ways This Might Show Up in Your Life:
​​​
-
Feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks but stuck when trying to start them.
-
Big emotions that feel like too much, too fast, or too out of sync with the moment.
-
Deep sensitivity to criticism or rejection—even when no one meant to criticize.
-
Resisting expectations—even ones you’ve chosen yourself—because they suddenly feel impossible or intrusive.
-
Struggling with transitions—starting, stopping, or shifting gears.
-
Easily overstimulated by sounds, textures, or bright lights.
-
Replaying social interactions in your head, worried you said the wrong thing or missed something.
-
Forgetting your train of thought or skipping steps mid-task.
-
Doing anything but the thing that actually needs to get done.
-
You feel like you're either “too much” or “not enough”—sometimes both
-
Shame from past misunderstandings or feeling different your whole life.​
Therapy can help you:
​
-
Explore and affirm your unique ways of thinking, sensing, and responding—with a focus on strengths rather than deficits.
-
Develop gentler systems that work for your brain - practical, shame-free systems that support your energy, attention, and executive functioning.
-
Practice unmasking in safe, self-led ways.
-
Learn to pause and respond to sensory or emotional overwhelm with curiosity and calming tools—rather than criticism.
-
Unburden parts that carry internalized ableism or feel responsible for keeping you “functional.”
-
Embrace your needs—including your deep drive for autonomy—without guilt or apology.
-
Heal from the internalized shame of being misunderstood, dismissed, or labeled “too sensitive” or “too much.”
-
Strengthen your voice in relationships and advocate for your needs with confidence and self-compassion.
