Emily offers ADHD assessments for adults at Solasta, bringing a trauma-informed and holistic perspective to a process that can feel long overdue for many clients.

For people who have spent years feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or quietly convinced that something is just wrong with them, an assessment with Emily is an opportunity to finally get some answers. Her approach looks beyond a checklist of symptoms to consider the whole person — identity, nervous system functioning, emotional patterns, coping strategies, and lived experience — so that what emerges from the assessment actually reflects who you are. Emily has a particular interest in how ADHD presents in women, where it is frequently missed or misunderstood for years before anyone thinks to look.

Emily’s background includes over 15 years of clinical experience across private practice and the non-profit sector, with specialized training in trauma, attachment, and somatic approaches. She understands that many adults arrive at an ADHD assessment having already tried very hard to manage — and having been told, in various ways, that trying harder should be enough. Her goal is to provide a space where that experience is understood, and where the assessment process itself feels validating rather than clinical.
