Group Offerings
WOMEN WITH ADHD: PRENATAL GROUP THERAPY
-
This group is for pregnant women with ADHD who are looking for support around the emotional, practical, and identity shifts of pregnancy. You do not need to have everything figured out. You just need to be open to showing up, connecting, and learning tools that fit your brain.
-
Topics may include medication decisions, executive functioning, overwhelm, overstimulation, shutdown, masking, asking for help, relationship changes, medical appointments, preparing for postpartum, and staying connected to yourself while everything is changing.
-
This is a therapy group that includes both support and practical skills. Sessions may include processing, psychoeducation, ADHD-informed strategies, nervous system support, and skills drawn from DBT and CBT.
-
No. This group is not about telling you what to do with medication. It is a space to talk openly about the stress, stigma, grief, confusion, or relief that can come with medication decisions during pregnancy. Medication questions should always be discussed with your prescribing provider.
-
You are exactly the kind of person this group is for. Pregnancy is often talked about as if it should feel natural, organized, or magical. For many ADHD brains, it can also feel overstimulating, disorienting, emotionally intense, and logistically overwhelming.
Pregnancy with ADHD can feel like a lot.
Maybe you’re navigating medication decisions, brain fog, sensory overwhelm, executive dysfunction, anxiety, appointments, relationship changes, and the pressure to seem like you’re handling it all.
This group is for pregnant women with ADHD who want support, skills, and community from people who actually get it.
This is a closed 6-week virtual therapy group for pregnant women with ADHD. You can join at any stage of pregnancy.
The group reopens to new members every 6 weeks. Once a cycle begins, the group stays closed so members have time to build trust, consistency, and connection.
Group Investment: $100/Session
Sliding scale options are available
WOMEN WITH ADHD: POSTPARTUM GROUP THERAPY
Postpartum with ADHD can feel like everything is happening at once.
Maybe you’re navigating sleep deprivation, feeding schedules, sensory overload, executive dysfunction, medication decisions, identity shifts, relationship stress, and the pressure to seem grateful, capable, and okay.
This group is for postpartum women with ADHD who want support, practical tools, and community with other mothers who understand why this season can feel so emotionally and logistically intense.
You do not have to pretend new motherhood feels simple, natural, or easy to manage.
-
This group is for postpartum women with ADHD who are looking for support around the emotional, practical, sensory, and identity shifts of early motherhood. You may be newly diagnosed, long-diagnosed, self-identified, medicated, unmedicated, breastfeeding, formula feeding, back at work, home with your baby, or somewhere in between.
You do not need to have it all figured out. This group is for mothers who want a space to be honest, feel less alone, and learn tools that actually fit their brain.
-
Topics may include sleep deprivation, feeding demands, sensory overload, executive functioning, medication decisions, overstimulation, resentment, guilt, relationship changes, return-to-work stress, asking for help, masking, identity shifts, and the pressure to seem like you are handling motherhood better than you feel.
We will also talk about how ADHD can shape the postpartum experience in ways that are often missed, minimized, or misunderstood.
-
This is a therapy group that includes both support and practical skills. Sessions may include processing, psychoeducation, ADHD-informed strategies, nervous system support, and skills drawn from DBT and CBT.
The group is not just a place to vent, though there is room for honesty. It is a space to feel understood and also build tools for getting through this season with more support.
-
No. This group is not about telling you what to do with medication.
It is a space to talk openly about the stress, stigma, grief, confusion, or relief that can come with medication decisions during postpartum, breastfeeding, or returning to medication after pregnancy. Medication questions should always be discussed with your prescribing provider.
-
You are exactly the kind of person this group is for.
Postpartum is often talked about as if it should feel instinctive, joyful, or natural. For many ADHD brains, it can also feel overstimulating, disorganizing, emotionally intense, and relentless. Struggling does not mean you are failing. It means you need support that actually understands the brain and body you are living in.
This is a closed 12-week virtual therapy group for postpartum women with ADHD. The group is open to women up to 12 months postpartum.
The group reopens to new members every 12 weeks. Once a cycle begins, membership stays closed so the group can feel consistent, connected, and safe enough for honest conversation.
Neurodiversity-Affirming DBT Skills Group
A 6–8 month in-person DBT skills group for neurodivergent young adults ages 18–25 who want practical tools for emotions, relationships, distress, overwhelm, and daily life.
This group moves through tailored DBT skills modules, including mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills, while also incorporating nervous system regulation, sensory awareness, masking, burnout, executive functioning, and the window of tolerance.
The pacing of the group depends on members’ needs. Some skills may move quickly, while others may need more time, repetition, discussion, or real-life practice.
This is not a group about forcing yourself to appear more regulated for other people (thankfully). It is about learning skills in a way that doesn’t feel forced or boxed-in and prioritizes a person’s autonomy.
-
This group is for neurodivergent young adults who want DBT skills taught in a way that accounts for differences in attention, sensory processing, communication, emotional intensity, learning, executive functioning, and nervous system regulation.
This may include ADHD, autism, AuDHD, learning differences, sensory processing differences, OCD or OCD-related experiences, Tourette’s or tic disorders, trauma-related neurodivergence, and other ways of thinking, feeling, processing, or moving through the world that may not have been well understood in standard therapy spaces.
You do not need a formal diagnosis to inquire. This group may be a good fit if traditional DBT skills have felt useful but too rigid, too fast, too focused on compliance, or not fully adapted to how your brain and body work.
-
You may still be a good fit. Many neurodivergent clients find DBT useful but need the skills taught with more attention to sensory needs, executive functioning, masking, burnout, communication differences, and nervous system capacity.
This group keeps the structure of DBT while adapting how the skills are taught, practiced, and applied.
-
This group teaches DBT skills through a neurodiversity-affirming lens. Members do not have to sit still, make eye contact, or participate in one specific “therapy group” way.
You are welcome to move, stim, use fidgets, take breaks, or process information in ways that work for your nervous system. Accommodations are made for needs that are often missed in standard DBT groups, including alexithymia, interoception differences, sensory overwhelm, shutdown, burnout, and executive functioning challenges.
-
Reach out to schedule a brief consultation. The consult is a chance to talk through what you are looking for, answer questions, and make sure the group feels like a good fit.
Because the group is small and capped at 6 members, openings may be limited. New members may join between modules when there is availability.
-
You may not know right away, and that is okay. The consultation is a chance to talk through what you are looking for, what has or has not helped before, and whether this group seems like the right fit.
This group may be helpful if you want DBT skills but need them taught in a way that is more flexible, concrete, neurodiversity-affirming, and responsive to your nervous system.
Members are encouraged to give the group a fair try, but participation is not a lifelong commitment. If the group is not feeling like the right fit, you can discuss that with Arielle and make a thoughtful plan to step out or find a better-matched support.
-
That makes sense. A lot of people come to DBT feeling skeptical, especially if therapy has felt too generic, too rigid, or not adapted to how they actually process the world.
You do not have to be fully convinced before starting. The group is designed to be practical, collaborative, and responsive to member needs. You are allowed to ask questions, notice what does and does not work for you, and take time to build trust with the material and the group. We stand behind autonomy and agency in this group.
Skepticism is not a problem. It is useful information!
