Hi! I'm Nancy!
And if you've spent most of your life feeling like you were just a little too much, too anxious, too scattered, too different.
I want you to know something: I understand. Not just professionally. Personally.
I was diagnosed with ADHD at around age 10, at a time in the early 1980s when it was barelyeven recognized as a real condition. I grew up feeling "sick" without anyone being able to fully explain why. At one point, I was told that I likely would not go very far in school. That I had limits.My parents refused to accept that. They advocated for me, and as I grew older and was able toprocess what had been said, I refused to accept it too. That experience shaped everything aboutwho I am and the work I do today.

I went on to earn a college diploma in Social Services and a Bachelor of Arts in Social Welfare, and built a career spanning over 20 years in mental health. I became a Reiki Master, a certified yoga teacher and a certified life and nutrition coach. I have supported hundreds of people through some of the most challenging chapters of their lives.

I did not feel truly safe in my own mind and body until I was 40 years old.
I share this not for sympathy but because if you are living with anxiety or ADHD right now, I want you to know that the story you have been told about yourself is not the final word. I am living proof of that.
What I believe
I believe that anxiety is not a life sentence. When it comes to anxiety, I believe in getting to the root cause of what you are experiencing rather than just managing symptoms. When you understand where your anxiety comes from and why, you gain real tools that stay with you long after our work together is done. For those living with ADHD, my focus is on helping you build strategies, confidence and self-understanding so that you can navigate a world that was not always designed with you in
mind.
My Goal
My goal is never to create dependency. My goal is to help you feel so grounded and equipped that you can handle life's hard moments on your own with confidence.
