Meet Donae

As an occupational therapist, professionally trained coach, and a fellow ADHD brain I understand ADHD can impact all of life; relationships, careers, finances, self care, and even self trust. I know that the techniques that work for typical brains may not land for you. (They didn't for me). 

I bring this understanding along with curiosity, compassion, and humor to the work I do and I can help you become an expert on working with your brain so you can achieve real, lasting change.
