Specializing in the effects of ADHD in relationships
Does this feel familiar?
You keep reaching for your partner, hoping they’ll meet you halfway, but you’re often met with silence, distance, or shutdown. You’re left feeling alone, unheard, and unsure of what to do next.
You feel like you’ve taken on the role of the reminder, the organizer, the emotional manager. It’s draining to be in this role, as either a parent or a partner
You’ve tried to communicate. You feel like you’ve asked for what you need over and over again. You’ve tried to stay patient, open, and loving, but nothing seems to stick. It’s exhausting to keep hoping for change when every effort feels like it leads to the same stuck place.
When you're seeking support through marriage counseling or family therapy in Chandler, AZ (or simply need a space for yourself!), you deserve a therapist who understands these patterns and can help you both feel heard, supported, and connected again.
Hi, I’m Shannon.
Being in a relationship where ADHD is present can feel like you’re speaking different emotional languages. Maybe one of you feels constantly overwhelmed or misunderstood, while the other feels like they’re carrying too much of the mental and emotional load. The love is still there, but communication, connection, and balance might feel out of reach.
As a therapist in Chandler, AZ, I specialize in working with couples and families who are navigating the complexities of ADHD in relationships. I also bring personal insight, having been diagnosed with ADHD in adulthood myself while navigating marriage and family life. I understand how ADHD can shape emotional responses, memory, motivation, and connection—and how it affects both partners (and families) in different, but equally valid, ways.
In our sessions, we’ll take a non-blaming, collaborative, emotionally focused therapy approach to help each of you feel heard, supported, and understood. Whether you’re working through miscommunication, conflict, or emotional distance, I offer tools and insight to help you rebuild trust and connection with each other.
If you're looking for couples therapy, family therapy, or individual therapy in Chandler, AZ and want a therapist who truly understands ADHD and relationships, I’d be honored to support you.

When you’ve finally started to feel like someone “gets” you, it can make a huge impact on your life moving forward. You will take the strategies found in therapy into your everyday life and find yourself making space for your own emotional needs. You just might find that you now have more space to care for the needs of others as well since you don’t have to hold it all on your own.
