Most people don’t avoid therapy because they don’t care. They avoid it because they’ve convinced themselves it’s not the right time, not bad enough, or something they should be able to figure out on their own. While those reasons may seem logical, they often just prevent us from getting started and receiving support that ultimately will help propel us forward.
.
If therapy has been on your mind for a while, there’s probably a reason. We can help. Click the link in our bio to get started.

For a lot of ADHD brains, tasks like responding to emails and text messages can feel frustrating or overwhelming. We crave dopamine hits and a sense of completion, but tasks like messages and emails rarely give us that. The moment you finish, more appear. Instead of a finish line, it feels like a treadmill.
