I also work with couples and partners of neurodivergent people. Many of the adults I see arrived here after their teenager's evaluation, or a partner's diagnosis, prompted them to recognize ADHD or autism in themselves, but that's not a requirement — I work with any adult navigating a new or long-standing neurodivergent diagnosis.

It's core to my practice, not a side note. That includes making sense of a diagnosis that reframes a lot of your past, building executive-function systems that fit how your brain actually works, and working through the grief and relief that tend to show up together with a late diagnosis.

No. A lot of adults assume that if they've made it this far without support, there's not much left to gain from understanding how their brain actually works — but it usually goes the other way. Making sense of a late or suspected ADHD or autism diagnosis tends to open things up: it explains patterns you've been managing alone for years, often without knowing that's what you were doing, and it replaces self-criticism with actual tools.

Yes. Many adults come to me with a strong suspicion rather than a formal diagnosis — often after recognizing themselves in a child's evaluation, or after years of a nagging sense that the standard explanations never quite fit. We can start from wherever you actually are. If a formal assessment would genuinely help you — for accommodations, medication, or just clarity — I'll say so, but it's not a prerequisite for starting therapy.
