    Finding an ADHD Therapist

    Adult ADHD Therapy That Works With Your Brain

    Practical, Neurodivergent-Affirming ADHD Counseling for Adults

    ADHD isn’t a lack of motivation or willpower. It’s a difference in how the brain manages attention, emotions, and executive functioning.

    Adult ADHD counseling can help with:

    • Difficulty starting, focusing on, or completing tasks

    • Disorganization and time management challenges

    • Emotional overwhelm or reactivity

    • Chronic stress, anxiety, or burnout

    • Low self-esteem and imposter syndrome

    We take time to understand how ADHD impacts you and work together to build tools that actually fit your life.

    ADHD Comes With Strengths and Real Challenges

    Adults with ADHD bring meaningful strengths into their work and relationships, such as creativity, curiosity, problem-solving, empathy, and the ability to think outside the box.

    At the same time, those strengths often come alongside real challenges, like burnout, overwhelm, difficulty sustaining focus, or feeling misunderstood.

    Therapy isn’t about forcing yourself to function like someone else. It’s about supporting your nervous system, strengthening your skills, and learning how to work with your ADHD in a way that feels sustainable.

    Our goal is to help you build on your strengths while learning how to navigate the challenges ADHD can bring.

    Our Approach to Adult ADHD Counseling

    We offer individualized, ADHD-affirming therapy rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Treatment is collaborative, practical, and grounded in compassion.

    Depending on your needs, ADHD therapy may include:

    • CBT-informed strategies for ADHD-related thought patterns

    • DBT-based skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance

    • Executive functioning support (organization, routines, follow-through)

    • Psychoeducation about adult ADHD and neurodivergence

    • Self-compassion skills for reducing shame and internalized criticism

    What to Expect in Your First Adult ADHD Therapy Session

    Your first ADHD therapy session is a supportive, low-pressure space to:

    • Share what’s been challenging

    • Identify goals for therapy

    • Ask questions about ADHD counseling

    • Begin creating a realistic, personalized treatment plan

    You don’t need to have everything figured out. Therapy starts exactly where you are.

    How ADHD Therapy Can Help

    An ADHD therapist can help you understand how ADHD affects your life and guide you in building practical strategies to manage it. We regularly work with clients who want to:

    • Understand their ADHD symptoms and what triggers them

    • Improve focus, concentration, and productivity

    • Reduce frustration, self-doubt, and shame by improving understanding and acceptance  

    • Manage emotions like anxiety and mood swings

    • Create structure, stay organized, and complete tasks- learn some strategies that work for you.

    • Improve communication and connection in relationships impacted by ADHD

    If any of this sounds familiar, therapy could make a meaningful difference in your life.
