Is it ADHD or anxiety with on the wavelength game 🌊

What do you think about our answers between ADHD and anxiety symptoms?

They can look so similar, share many overlapping symptoms, and it’s possible to be diagnosed with both at once.

For CA residents, we accept new clients through and you can learn more at the link in my bio!

Every single month, Google is one of the top ways families find my private practice even though I have thousands of followers on social media.

So if you’re a therapist trying to grow your caseload that doesn’t want to show up constantly on social media, this is how to do it:

✅ A Google Business profile (it’s free & local clients are already searching)
✅ A website with the actual words your clients are Googling

Want more guidance on how to get more clients to find you through your website?

I help therapists do exactly that through business coaching (head to the link in my bio to schedule a call).

I’m a psychologist who has spent over 5 years working with people with ADHD, and here’s what I want you to know 👇

ADHD isn’t laziness or bad intentions, and affects so much more than just focusing and hyperactivity.

These are just a few takeaways, and while they’re a starting point, therapy looks different for everyone.

If you’re a parent looking for structured, evidence-based support for your child’s ADHD, my ADHD course for parents was made for you.

The course includes 70+ lessons and covers everything from emotions to motivation in kids with ADHD.

Get ready with me for a day of client sessions in private practice ✨

Before starting my sessions for the day, I’m usually doing admin work including marketing, answering emails, and filming content.

BTW - I know I’ll get questions about the platform I was using to prep for sessions and it’s which is great for child and teen therapists, but parents can also access the resources.

If you’re a therapist, what does your pre-work routine look like?

If it takes forever to find out what type of doctor somebody is…🚩

There’s a reason why they’re hiding it.

I’ve seen this a lot with different types of PhDs and chiropractors who don’t make it clear what their doctorate means.

And calling themselves doctor is technically correct, but the implication isn’t.

They want you to believe they are a doctor within the field they’re talking about whether that’s mental or physical health.

Comment below what you think of this when you’ve seen doctors sharing their expertise online in a field outside of their own ⤵️

Adults with fully developed brains can’t put their phones down…

And we’re expecting an ADHD child to just… stop? 📵🧠

Social media and apps are designed to keep us scrolling and your ADHD child’s brain is always searching for that stimulation.

Asking kids to self-regulate isn’t fair when these apps were designed to keep them on them.

What actually works is removing the decision from their hands as a form of support.

Putting into place external regulation so that they don’t have to decide for themselves.

If this resonated with you, I have an entire module dedicated to screens inside my Connected & Practical Parenting course (linked in bio).

It covers exactly what limits to set, how to implement them without the meltdowns, and how to have the conversation with your child.

The reason your ADHD kid won’t start tasks might not be what you think.

It’s not always that the task is too big for them to do.

✅ It’s that they need a clear finish line so that they don’t get so overwhelmed by the task in the first place

So the next time you want your ADHD child to follow through on something, try adding a finish line:

‘Study for 5 minutes’
‘Put away your clothes by noon’

If you want more strategies like this that actually work for ADHD kids, my Connected & Practical Parenting Couse walks you through exactly how to set your child up for success at home and school.

Parenting ADHD kids and teens is nuanced, because it has to be.

👉 If managing ADHD parenting were simple, you wouldn’t still be Googling at midnight wondering what you’re doing wrong.

The complexity of parenting ADHD kids is real, and you deserve support that takes that into account.

That’s what you’ll find across my posts and my ADHD Parenting Course, Connected & Practical Parenting.

The course is built around what science says actually works for building a calmer and happier home with your child’s ADHD in mind.

It’s not a cure for ADHD, but a way to work with it.

Head to the link in my bio for more info on the course and other resources for parents of ADHD kids.
