Helping Anxious and Neurodivergent Millennials Find Relief

Tired of burnout, overwhelm, and masking? Let’s make room for something better.

Schedule a free video call

If you’re a high-achieving millennial who seems like they have it all together, but secretly feels like a chaotic mess, you’re not alone. I see the overwhelm, imposter syndrome, racing thoughts, and executive function struggles that keep you stuck in shame. I get it.

I work with clients who are anxious, neurodivergent, or both. Many of my clients didn’t realize they were neurodivergent until adulthood. They only discovered it after years of burnout, misdiagnoses, or coping strategies that never seemed to work.

If you’re wondering whether there’s a better way to exist and thrive in a world that wasn’t built for your brain, there is.

Does this sound like you?

→ You feel successful at work, but you deal with impostor syndrome and a huge amount of pressure to succeed

→ You’ve been pushing through anxiety, burnout, and overwhelm for a long time – and you view them as regular parts of the job, not signs to take care of yourself.

→ You feel ashamed for struggling.

→ You hold yourself to extremely high standards, then blame yourself if you don’t achieve those standards.

→ You’re constantly worried about a long list of "shoulds” in your life.

→ You overthink about what happened in the day and run through scenarios on how you could have done something differently.

→ Even when you’re putting in maximum effort, life still feels harder than it should.

→ It feels like your brain wasn’t quite built for the world you live in.

Whether you’re looking for therapy to manage anxiety, support for living with ADHD, guidance around old conditioned behaviors like perfectionism and people-pleasing, or coaching to build executive function tools that actually stick, I’m here to help.

My practice is dedicated to helping you make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface. Together, we’ll find a way forward that doesn’t involve burnout, self-blame, or pretending everything’s fine.

Hi, I'm Danielle Wayne.

Why I work with millennials

I work with professional millennials because I’m a millennial myself, and I’ve felt the pressures and anxieties of living with neurodivergence. The struggles that millennials face are different from the struggles of our parents, grandparents, and younger generations.

I know what it’s like to feel anxious because of the overwhelming responsibilities that come with being in a demanding career and struggling with adulting outside of work. I’m here with you every step of the way on your journey to overcome your own anxiety, challenges with neurodivergence, and stress.

My therapeutic approach

I’m not here to “fix” you, because you’re not broken. You’ve likely gotten the message throughout your life that you’re just not enough – not good enough, not attentive enough, not focused enough, not organized enough – and those messages can impact your self-worth and beliefs. The truth is, society wasn’t designed for neurodivergence. But you can learn how to work with your unique strengths and manage your challenges.

When we work together, it’s my goal for you to stop needing ADHD therapy or therapy for anxiety or autism anymore.

Here’s how we make that happen:

→ I’ll help you figure out how to improve executive functioning skills, find better balance in your career and in life, and work with your neurodivergence instead of fighting it.
→ We’ll work on coping mechanisms and different tools that help you manage your anxiety and get regulated when things escalate.
→ We’ll talk about your past experiences and the beliefs that impact your everyday life, cultivate self-compassion, and expand the way you think about yourself.

No matter what you’re dealing with, I’ll help you make sense of what’s keeping you anxious and stuck. Together, we’ll work toward finding steadier ground by letting go of the thoughts that keep pulling you under.

Danielle is phenomenal. She is honest, encouraging, and persistent. She doesn't shy away from difficult topics, rather she guides you and provides you with the tools to face them and make a change when necessary. Danielle met me where I was, offered me unconditional acceptance, and then started helping me to grow towards who I want to become.

Sometimes in our life, we feel like we are drowning and there is no one there to save us but Danielle will be there, and she will help you hold your head above the water until you are strong enough to find the shore.

Danielle always listens to what my concerns are and helps me see them in a more helpful light. She is always there if I just need to vent, and responds quickly. I've tried a lot of different forms of therapy, but working with her has been by far the most helpful.

Danielle has been wonderful to work with and I feel I have gained a lot from our time together. She's helped me initiate changes in my life that I was struggling to make on my own and given me helpful tools in the process. She's well-versed in her field and offers an empathetic, yet practical perspective that allows you to understand yourself a little better.

Danielle has been great. She listens and gets right to the heart of things to address the underlying causes for what I am dealing with. She is friendly, respectful, and smart. I have enjoyed my experience so far with Danielle.

You're so great and I’ve gotten so much value from this. You’re empathetic. You’re a great listener. And you have great advice. I’m going to tell all my friends about this.

Danielle is amazing with helping to confront my struggles, whether they are frequent problems or something completely new. She is always there to remind me that what I am feeling is valid and that I'm not alone.

Amazing, wonderful, responds quickly, really connects with me. Since working with her she's helped me to grow more confident and to start seeing more positive things rather than just the negative things that happen in my day.

I have not been talking with Danielle all that long but even in this amount of time she has helped me more than anyone in a long time. My family was one that didn't believe in therapy so it took me time to try this and online is awesome. I can't thank you enough!

My Services

Anxiety Therapy

You’re used to keeping it together. But under the surface, a constant stream of anxiety keeps you on high alert. You overthink every decision, replay every mistake, and always feel like you’re not doing enough (even when you’re doing everything.)

Anxiety therapy is right for you if you struggle with:
→ Chronic stress and burnout
→ Perfectionism and imposter syndrome
→ People-pleasing and boundary issues
→ Trouble sleeping or shutting off your brain

Learn more about anxiety therapy.

ADHD Therapy

ADHD isn’t just trouble focusing. It’s overwhelm, time blindness, disorganization, shame, and always feeling behind. I work with millennial adults with ADHD who are tired of masking, burning out, and feeling “lazy” or “scattered.” ADHD therapy might be right for you if you live in Idaho, Iowa, Florida, or South Carolina. 

These are common struggles I help with:
→ Executive dysfunction and time management
→ Emotional dysregulation and sensitivity
→ Career stress and imposter syndrome
→ Perfectionism and people-pleasing

Learn more about ADHD therapy.

Autism Therapy

If you’ve recently realized you’re autistic – or you’ve known for a while but never had support – you’re not alone. I offer neurodivergent-affirming therapy to help you explore your identity, navigate challenges, and build a life that honors how you actually work.

Common topics we explore:
→ Late diagnosis or self-discovery
→ Burnout, shutdowns, and sensory overload
→ Masking and internalized ableism
→ Navigating work and relationships as an autistic person

ADHD Coaching

I offer personalized ADHD coaching for millennials in any location. If you’ve tried planners, productivity hacks, and willpower but still feel stuck, coaching for ADHD might be the missing piece.

I work with people who want:
→ Support with executive function
→ Help regulating intense emotions, sensitivity, or mood swings
→ Guidance navigating workplace pressures, burnout, and imposter syndrome
→ Perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of disappointing others
→ Tools to manage time, energy, and motivation

Learn more about ADHD coaching.

Why online therapy?

I’m an exclusively online therapist. In my experience, online therapy fits in a busy millennial’s life. Sometimes it’s overwhelming to even schedule an appointment. But with the click of a button, you can schedule a session with me that fits seamlessly within your schedule. There’s no commute and no awkward, teary-eyed walk to your car after a heavy session.

It’s my job to make therapy a safe, validating, and soothing process for you every session. You’ll have to put in the work to make changes and heal, but I’ll be right there with you.
