Listen…I was born in the 1980s, got a Master’s Degree before AI (I’m still always engaged in learning something), I’m almost done writing my first complete draft of my epic fantasy novel, I’m teaching my children music, and yet, keeping up with all the simple everyday life tasks can leave me feeling like I’m constantly failing.

Long Story Short: AuDHD sucks, and I wasn’t actually doing the list because I was too focused on trying to figure out how to do the list.

Check out the full blog post and read how I actually got something done.

Sound like you? I help adults stop beating themselves up for a brain that works differently.

A nervous system can learn that being misunderstood feels dangerous. A life of trying to fit in, feel seen, wanted, be good enough, validated is exhausting so we slip into behaviors and ways of thinking that protect us. For some, no, it’s not just a little social anxiety. For some of us it’s been reinforced (even if it’s not true) that we aren’t good enough, or don’t fit it, or we’re too much, etc.

Many enter relationships already bracing for rejection.

If this sounds like you, it might be time to start getting curious about your relationships, your nervous system, and ways to improve your communication style so you can achieve that connection and understanding you’re looking for.

Looking for a therapist who gets it? These are things we work on with others daily. We want to help you get there. Link in the bio.

Only a few tickets left!!! We’ll be at this event and we’re really excited about it ✨

If you’re local, love Sleep Token, and want to check out something a little different—this is a really cool space with some creative energy behind it.

We’ll be there if you want to:
• ask questions about therapy
• learn about our groups
• or just come vibe and say hi (there may even be a little something to obtain 👀)

Come hang out. No pressure, plenty of awkwardness (from me—Erika—I’m awkward in the wild and I love Sleep Token)

Will we see you there 👀

We’ve been a little quiet on here—but not in real life.

Behind the scenes, it’s been sessions, growth (Erika had a baby last June!), hard conversations, and a lot of people doing really meaningful work.

We’re back ✨

And we’ve got some things coming up (including a vendor event we’re excited about 👀)

If you’re new here:
We work with creatives, high achievers, and people who feel a lot—and want therapy that actually makes sense.
