About Me
About Me:
I am very passionate about creating accessible testing and Neurofeedback Services for individuals who think they might be neurodivergent or just need a little support. I myself am neurodivergent. I was diagnosed with dyslexia and dyscalculia when I was 7. At the age of 10 my teachers had concerns of me also having ADHD but it was dismissed by my childhood doctor. After I started my masters program I began struggling with my mental health again. I went to my doctor and was treated for anxiety. When anxiety medication did not help my therapist suggested ADHD. When I brought this to my doctor she was inexperienced in ADHD and sent me to a PMHNP who continued to only treat me for anxiety and refused to put me on a waitlist for ADHD testing. I then tried another doctor to get assessed and finally I was referred to an LCSW who was able to test for ADHD. Finally, after two years, at 26 I was diagnosed with ADHD. I had to fight for so long I almost gave up, but my life changed when my health care team started treating my ADHD. I knew then I needed to help make these assessments more accessible to individuals. in 2022 my therapist started to offer NeurOptimal® and I have seen such a great improvement in myself. I was driving 4 hours round trip to see her. When I looked up to see if anyone offered NeurOptimal® in this area and no one was listed. I knew this was another tool I needed to offer my community here in the St. Charles County area of Missouri.
