ADHD Therapy

ADHD Therapy for Teens, Adults & Couples

South Asian Therapist in Oakland, San Francisco, & across California

Your brain is not the problem.

I offer neurodivergent-affirming, somatic, and parts-based therapy for teens, adults, and couples navigating ADHD. Drawing on a liberation and decolonial lens, we go beneath the surface to address root causes, not just symptoms, with close attention to how race, culture, gender, and queer or non-monogamous identities shape your experience.

This is a space where your brain is not a problem to be fixed.

  • You have brilliant ideas but finishing things feels like pushing through wet concrete

  • You swing between hyperfocus and complete depletion with very little in between

  • You've built elaborate systems to appear functional and you're exhausted from maintaining them

  • You were the "smart one" who just needed to apply yourself — and that message still lives in your body

  • Rest feels impossible, or like something you have to earn first

  • You've been told you're too much, too sensitive, too scattered, too intense

  • For South Asian, first-gen, and BIPOC clients — your ADHD went unrecognized because you were too busy performing competence in systems that were never built for you

Does this sound like you?

I work with ADHD teens, adults, and couples who are:

  • Late-diagnosed or self-identified adults finally making sense of a lifetime of experiences

  • Teens navigating ADHD in high-pressure academic environments and first-gen family systems

  • High-achieving and high-masking — performing competence while running on empty

  • Navigating the overlap of ADHD and autism (AuDHD) and finding language for both

  • Experiencing burnout from decades of adapting to neurotypical expectations

  • Couples where one or both partners are neurodivergent and want to understand how that shapes their dynamic

  • Managing ADHD at the intersections of queer, BIPOC, South Asian, or immigrant identity

  • Dealing with shame, self-doubt, and the internalized message that they just need to try harder

  • Late diagnosis and the identity shift that comes with it — grief, relief, and everything in between

  • Unmasking and understanding who you are when you stop performing neurotypicality

  • Burnout and nervous system regulation — building capacity rather than just coping strategies

  • Relationships and communication — how ADHD shows up with partners, family, and at work

  • Teens, school pressure, and navigating academic stress inside high-achieving family systems

  • Career and creativity — finding structures that work with your brain not against it

  • The intersections of ADHD with race, culture, queerness, and other marginalized identities

  • Confidence and self-trust outside of shame and comparison

  • AuDHD — holding both autism and ADHD without having to choose which one explains you
