Emily Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MDiv, PhD, LMFT-S
Navigating the Brilliance and the Burnout
ADHD is rarely just about "focus"—it is a complex, lived experience that colors every interaction, emotion, and internal narrative. In my practice, I work with neurodivergent individuals and couples to move past the shame of "not doing enough" and toward a life of sustainable functioning and relational safety.
For the Individual: Moving Beyond the Mask
Living with a neurodivergent brain in a neurotypical world often leads to a chronic state of burnout. Together, we address the invisible hurdles that standard productivity hacks ignore:
Rejection Sensitivity (RSD): Navigating the intense, often overwhelming emotional pain triggered by perceived criticism or rejection.
Demand Avoidance: Understanding the brain’s "threat response" to expectations and finding collaborative ways to move into action without the paralysis of shame.
Managing the "Overload": Developing strategies to prevent and recover from meltdowns or sensory overwhelm, honoring your nervous system’s unique limits.
For the Couple: Ending the "Parent-Child" Dynamic
ADHD can create a profound "relational gap" where one partner feels like a nag and the other feels constantly "less than." My work with couples centers on Systems Theory and Attachment, helping you:
Translate neurodivergent "language" so both partners feel seen and heard.
Dismantle the cycle of demand avoidance and reactive withdrawal.
Whether you are navigating a new diagnosis or have been "white-knuckling" it for years, I provide a space that is curious, courageous, and deeply affirming. We don't just "manage" your ADHD; we build a life and a relationship that actually fits your brain.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.
