Experience Brief Solution-Focused Therapy (BSFT) tailored for ADHD – practical, actionable sessions that empower you to understand your brain, transform unhelpful habits, and take control of ADHD symptoms. With a focus on skill-building and creating real change, this ADHD therapy moves beyond talking to deliver results.
Do you ever feel like you're constantly running uphill, putting in the effort but never quite reaching the top?
- You try to focus, but tasks take forever.
- Sleep feels like a luxury.
- Your once-tidy home is a disaster zone, and arguments with loved ones leave you drained.
- The inner critic is on repeat, blasting you with guilt about "shoulds" and "could-have-beens."
- College or work feels impossible to manage, and you wonder if you'll ever get it "together."
- Worry anxiety has you feeling completely exhausted and your life is managed by flight/fight responses.
Hi, I'm Victoria!
As a Special Education Teacher, Licensed Professional Counselor, and ADHD-Clinical Service Provider, I offer more than talk therapy. Our sessions focus on learning, “hacking the brain” to rewrite habits, unlearn “flight” responses, and improve daily executive functioning. We’ll work to reduce anxiety, silence the nagging guilty voice driven by people-pleasing, and stop the cycle of burnout from constantly going above and beyond. With my expertise in learning disabilities (30% of individuals with ADHD have a concurrent learning disability!) and mental health, I provide comprehensive ADHD treatment tailored for real, actionable change—far beyond a typical talk session where you just vent about ADHD.
I specialize in helping individuals and families with ADHD thrive by:
Data-Driven Solution-Focused Therapy:
- Forget deep dives into the past. We focus on real-time data you've collected between sessions to identify specific ADHD symptoms impacting daily life. .
- This targeted, data-driven approach allows us to track progress quickly and adjust strategies for maximum effectiveness
Building Sustainable Systems:
- We'll work together to create personalized systems that help your brain organize information effectively.
- These systems are designed to be long-term solutions you can easily maintain for lasting success.

- You'll learn to manage your brain's fight-or-flight response, cultivate a positive inner voice, and finally feel comfortable taking off the mask.
You’ve spent years adapting and hiding your true self, but the constant effort is draining. Along the way, you’ve become an expert at comparing yourself to others, always striving to be ‘above and beyond.’ This cycle has created unwanted thought patterns that lead to perfectionism, anxiety, a harsh inner critic, and the urge to avoid tasks when you feel you can’t perform them perfectly.
It’s time to unlearn learnt patterns that no longer server you.
- Unmask Your Potential: Through a data-driven approach, we'll work together to understand if you're facing core ADHD symptoms or mental health conditions often co-occurring with ADHD.

- Building Self-Compassion: Transform your inner critic into a supportive voice, fostering positive self-talk.

- ADHD Therapy Without Medication: Skill-Building Focus Learn strategies to improve organization, time management, and executive functioning. Our sessions are designed to empower you with the skills needed to thrive in daily life, offering concrete solutions that lead to real, lasting change.
Build the skills and self-compassion you need to feel empowered, not exhausted. With solution-focused therapy, you’ll go beyond just talking—you’ll gain an understanding of your brain, an understanding how to properly put systems in place for yourself, begin to trust your gut and improve your relationships. Discover how ADHD therapy can help you develop the strategies for real change.

3 Step Process to Investing in Your Future
I offer a discounted initial session (or covered by insurance) to provide a deeper exploration of your needs and expectations for therapy. This 30-minute session allows us to:
- Discuss any relevant background information.
- Explore your goals for therapy.
- Develop a preliminary treatment plan, if appropriate.
This session also gives you a chance to experience my therapeutic approach and determine if we’re a good fit. There’s no obligation to continue after the session if you feel it’s not the right match for you.
Solution-focused sessions are 30 minutes long and designed to drive change. To start, schedule the first 4-6 sessions weekly to build accountability, establish habits, and track key data around ADHD symptoms, anxiety, and “flight” responses—often mistaken for lack of motivation but rooted in little T trauma. Together, we’ll get to the root of what’s affecting you the most and gain insights into how your brain works.
Afterward, we’ll transition to bi-weekly sessions (just 1 hour of therapy a month!) to continue skill-building and maintaining progress.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Reduced Symptoms: Learn how to effectively manage your ADHD symptoms and improve overall well-being.

Success Stories
What’s my clients say
Easily the best therapist I’ve ever had. She actually understands and reads my messages no matter when I send them, and then gives incredible feedback and sources to learn.
Victoria has been very active with me and my counseling. She offers a variety of goals, worksheets and writing prompts then takes the time to discuss everything with me. Very good with listening and offering different perspectives on situations. I feel comfortable confiding in her and opening up about things that are troubling me. I also love the spiritual aspect and working on meditation and mindfulness exercises.
Victoria has provided more insight into my life in a few short weeks than I’ve had from years of other therapy. I am in awe of how she is pinpointing things and allowing me to see things more clearly. I feel more hope than I have in a long time because of her help!
