Who Dr. Cheryl Works Best With

I work best with adults navigating ADHD or AuDHD later in life who are ready to create meaningful change with clarity, compassion, and curiosity.

​

Many of my clients are creatives, entrepreneurs, and professionals — often late-diagnosed or 40+ — who are learning to release outdated self-narratives and embrace their neurodivergent strengths.

​

I especially support individuals with both ADHD and autistic traits who are seeking balance, integration, and genuine self-acceptance—transforming self-understanding into confidence, alignment, and sustainable growth.

My Journey: From Struggle to Clarity, From Clarity to Growth

For much of my life, I experienced the tension of brilliance mixed with struggle—moving through academia, mindfulness, and personal discovery while also navigating the challenges of ADHD. It wasn’t until later that the pieces began to fit together, allowing me to see my own patterns with clarity and compassion.

 

I often sum up this journey in a haiku I wrote:

Half a century
Of brokenness and brilliance;
And now, clear seeing.

​

This “clear seeing” is what led me to ADHD coaching. My path as a developmental psychologist, mindfulness practitioner, and now coach reflects both the science and the lived experience of what it means to build a life that works with your brain, not against it. My story is one of integrating these threads—academic research, contemplative wisdom, and personal experience—into a practice devoted to helping others transform their challenges into sources of resilience, creativity, and strength.

​

Now, I help my clients find their own “clear seeing”—a deeper understanding of themselves that unlocks growth, balance, and new possibilities.

Get To Know Dr. Cheryl

In my 'downtime' (as if there is ever such a thing!) I'm living and learning. Like many of my clients, I thrive on new projects. In the past several years, I've dabbled in DJing and shadow puppetry, taken up guitar, mastered the art of kombucha-making, joined a chorus, learned the breast stroke (finally!), and taught myself to hula hoop. Meanwhile, my canine co-pilot, friends and family, and mindfulness practice keep me grounded.
