Meet the Team at ADHD Breakthrough Center

Founder, Breakthrough ADHD Center | Neurocognitive Training Expert for Children

I am the founder of Breakthrough ADHD Center. I also have ADHD myself, which gives me a personal understanding of how differently the brain can work compared to the systems built around it.
As a child, I watched my brother go through a brain injury that changed our whole family. Even before I understood the science, I understood the feeling: when someone you love is struggling, and no one can see the whole picture of what's happening in their brain.

Later, as a parent, I saw that same gap again, good people doing their best, but their plans not lining up with each other. It showed me clearly that families need one coordinated plan, not scattered pieces, especially when a child is navigating ADHD, ASD, or both.

That's why I started my practice. I trained with leading experts around the world, including the Institute of Nutritional Endocrinology, and I studied European technologies at the Health Optimizing Center. I became a board-certified biofeedback specialist and a Doctor of Natural Medicine, and I also trained with TrueBearing Academy.

I am a featured expert author for NeuroTracker X, a neuro-visual cognitive training platform, where I have published columns on cognitive training for neurodivergent children. My focus is on gifted neurodivergent children specifically, training the brain's capacity for attention, processing speed, and cognitive performance, rather than working from a label alone.

Today, our center brings together natural medicine, nutrition, neurofeedback, cognitive behavioural therapy, and counselling, instead of care scattered across many different offices.

One area I'm especially passionate about is working with bright, gifted children, the ones whose minds move quickly and brilliantly, but whose struggles often get overlooked or misread precisely because they're so capable in other ways. These children need someone who understands both sides of that picture, not just one.
We have a wonderful community here at Breakthrough ADHD Center, a team of clinicians and coaches who are genuine experts in both ADHD and ASD, and who care deeply about finding the real reasons behind a child's struggles, not just managing what shows up on the surface. Families often tell me the first relief is simply understanding what's actually going on with their child.
