Are you navigating life with a diagnosis of neurodivergence (ASD, ADHD, 2E, or learning disorders)?
Right now you might be experiencing:
- Chronic Overstimulation: Everyday sensory overload is overwhelming. Whether it’s the noise of an office, the endless notifications, or bright lights in public spaces, the world feels like too much, too often. You might feel frazzled, constantly on edge, or shut down entirely to cope with the sensory input.
- Emotional Dysregulation: Your emotions feel like they’re either too much or too little. You might get caught off guard by sudden waves of frustration or anxiety, or you may feel emotionally detached, unsure how to process your feelings. This might lead to a cycle of emotional outbursts followed by regret or exhaustion from bottling it all up.
- Executive Dysfunction: Tasks that others seem to breeze through—organizing your day, keeping track of appointments, or meeting deadlines—might feel like monumental challenges. You often know what you need to do, but following through can feel impossible. Managing time, setting priorities, and avoiding distractions can be a daily battle.
- Masking and Exhaustion: For years, you’ve learned to “mask”—to hide your neurodivergent traits to fit in. Whether it’s suppressing stimming behaviors or forcing eye contact during conversations, masking has taken a toll on your emotional and mental health. You might feel exhausted from the constant performance of being “neurotypical.”
- Relationship Struggles: It feels like people often misunderstand you. Whether it’s struggling with communication, interpreting social cues, or expressing emotions, relationships—romantic, work-related, or familial—may feel strained. You might wonder if your neurodivergence is at the root of why others find you “hard to read” or “distant.”
You’ve started to recognize how neurodivergence is impacting your life:
- Professional Setbacks: In the workplace, you may find yourself overlooked or misunderstood. Whether it’s difficulty focusing in meetings, feeling overwhelmed by social dynamics, or struggling with productivity, you might feel like you’re constantly underperforming despite your best efforts.
- Perfectionism and Imposter Syndrome: If you’re twice exceptional (2E), you might face the paradox of excelling in certain areas while feeling deeply inadequate in others. This constant push and pull between high achievement and deep self-doubt can lead to burnout and a sense of failure.
- Chronic Misunderstanding in Relationships: Your neurodivergence might lead to repeated misunderstandings with loved ones. Whether it’s difficulty articulating your needs, feeling frustrated by small talk, or struggling with sensory sensitivity during intimate moments, you may feel distant and disconnected.
- Overcompensation and Burnout: You’ve likely spent years overcompensating for challenges related to ADHD or learning disorders—working twice as hard to meet deadlines, stay organized, or avoid mistakes. Now, you’re burnt out, emotionally drained, and unsure how to keep going without completely unraveling.
You’re wondering…
- Is it normal to feel like I’m constantly missing social cues, even with people I care about?
- Why does it seem like no one else has to work this hard just to get through the day?
- How can I stop feeling like I’m failing when I know I’m capable of more?
- Will therapy actually help me navigate my neurodivergence, or will I always feel this disconnected?
You’re longing for…
- Authenticity in Your Daily Life: To stop masking and start showing up as your true self, without fear of judgment or misunderstanding.
- Emotional Balance: You want to manage the intensity of your feelings without being consumed by them, or feeling numb and detached from your own emotions.
- Meaningful Relationships: To build deeper connections where your neurodivergence is accepted, understood, and appreciated, rather than feeling like you’re always “too much” or “too different.”
- Personalized Strategies: To develop tailored approaches that work for your brain—whether it’s better time management with ADHD, emotional processing for ASD, or handling the perfectionism and burnout that often come with 2E.
- Self-Compassion and Confidence: To embrace your strengths, forgive your struggles, and feel proud of who you are without constantly comparing yourself to neurotypical standards.
