Licensed Clinical Social Worker · California [license #]
ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider
Certificates in Somatic Yoga and Women's ADHD Care
I work with adult women who have spent a long time being called capable and feeling like they were faking it.
I also have ADHD. I was diagnosed as an adult, which puts me in good company: research consistently finds that girls are identified at roughly half the rate of boys in childhood, with the gap narrowing considerably by adulthood.1 A great many of us spent decades being described as sensitive, scattered, dramatic, or not living up to our potential, and were handed everything except an accurate explanation.
I don't share that to make this about me. I share it because when a woman tells me she reread her own childhood report cards after her diagnosis and cried, I am not working from a textbook.
[Brittni — this is where your story goes, and we'll write it together. Worth deciding: how much of your own path you want to share, what pulled you specifically toward ADHD in women, and what you want a reader to feel in the first ten seconds. Two to four short paragraphs is right — long enough to be a person, short enough to read on a phone.]
[Second paragraph placeholder — the "why this work" turn.]
I would rather show you what I am actively studying than imply I ever finished learning. Here is the full picture, in plain language.
A clinical license issued by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences. It requires a master's degree in social work, thousands of supervised postgraduate clinical hours, and passing a clinical examination. It is what permits me to provide psychotherapy, and it is why therapy is limited to clients physically located in California. License [#], active and verifiable through the Board's public license lookup.
A specialty certification granted by Evergreen Certifications for clinicians who complete advanced training specific to ADHD across the lifespan and meet defined professional and continuing education requirements. It is not a license and it does not expand my scope of practice. What it does mean is that my ADHD work is not something I picked up incidentally alongside general practice: it is a deliberate specialization I trained for and am accountable to maintaining.
Certification number 116465, valid through August 2028.
Training in body-based, nervous-system-informed practice. This matters for ADHD and trauma work because regulation is physical before it is cognitive, and because talking about a dysregulated nervous system is not the same as changing one.2 I use somatic approaches as part of therapy where they fit, not as a substitute for clinical treatment.
Focused training on how ADHD presents, gets missed, and changes across a woman's life — including the influence of hormonal shifts across the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and postpartum, and perimenopause.3
This is ongoing rather than finished, and I will say so plainly rather than dress it up. ADHD and PTSD co-occur in a substantial share of adults, and each makes the other harder to see clearly.4 I am building depth here because the women I work with need it, and I will always tell you when something sits outside what I am currently trained to treat.
[Brittni — add specific trainings in progress here, with expected completion dates if you'd like.]
