Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
It's not easy living with ADHD in systems, institutions and communities that were historically built by and for neuro-typical people. Living with neurodivergence means that others struggle to understand, empathize with, and extend grace and compassion towards you. They either do not know about, do not think about, cannot imagine, or refuse to offer you the types of accommodations that would support you to show up, engage and contribute to the best of your abilities. This can make you feel further misunderstood, isolated and marginalized, and reduce your access to resources and opportunities for care and growth.
Let's work together to:
Explore, better understand & accept your unique strengths & challenges as someone living with ADHD.
Learn & apply new techniques & approaches to address some of the executive functioning challenges that come with ADHD (including planning, organization, and time-management).
Learn effective ways of managing your stress to reduce the intensity of the symptoms of ADHD.
Create doable personalized plans to feel more balanced, well, fulfilled and engaged in your work / studies, relationships, and personal life.
Learn about and self-advocate for academic & workplace accommodations that can reduce your experiences of overwhelm & stress, and set you up for success.

Sexuality & ADhD Solutions
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapist/Certified Coach - RSSW, AAC, CEBC, CAE
Having ADHD/ASD myself, I started my practice in 2013, with the passion to empower those with different brains to learn management skills that work for their specific issues. I especially want everyone to understand that ADHD is an executive function malfunction. We will dive into every executive function and you will understand your specific brain and what it needs.
Within a few years, I realized there was a big need to understand how executive function malfunction was impacting our sexuality. We often struggle with boundaries. That will definitely impact our choices or lack of choosing in all of our life, including erotically.
Did you know there is a higher rate of sexual issues among people with ADHD? I had to overcome many.
My passion to empower people with ADHD becomes stronger with each client who overcomes their blocks and hurts, and sets themself up for success, whatever that meant to them.
I am honoured to do this unique work that changes people's lives in major ways.
I UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES!

Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
Do you or a family member have challenges with focus, distractibility, time management, procrastination, restlessness and/or forgetfulness? Have you struggled with chronic unexplained underachievement?
People with ADHD tend to be extremely bright individuals who are frequently misunderstood. They are often told they are not living up to their potential and described as “lazy” and “unmotivated.” Overtime, individuals with ADHD can internalize this negative feedback and feel ineffective, unproductive, ashamed, guilty, anxious, overwhelmed, and frustrated. Tasks that seem simple and require minimal effort to others (e.g., responding to emails) can feel like climbing a mountain to individuals with ADHD.
If not properly addressed, ADHD can wreak havoc on lives. However, it can also become a superpower if appropriately managed.
At MindFit, we offer the Fit and Focused assessment to help determine whether one’s challenges can be explained by ADHD. We focus on identifying and fostering strengths and understanding what’s getting in the way of their development. Getting an accurate assessment is the first step toward receiving effective management of the condition and bringing out the best in you. We also offer a 10-session Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy based program called “Thrive with ADHD” designed to teach youth and adults with ADHD about effective strategies (e.g., for organization, time management, reducing procrastination, etc.), ADHD coaching, support for parents and partners of children/adults with ADHD, and a physical activity program for individuals with ADHD based on research indicating that physical activity interventions can reduce ADHD symptom severity, improve mood and enhance focus.

Liz Dean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
ADHD can feel like a constant battle for focus, organization, and self-esteem, often misinterpreted as a lack of effort or care. My approach is to provide a safe non-judgemental environment to explore how you function in this world, leveraging your strengths to create strategies for managing ADHD's challenges to find a different path forward.

Synergetic Healing Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
We recognize that individuals with ADHD often struggle with emotional regulation, mental flexibility, organization, and planning. Our therapy approach emphasizes skill-building in these areas through evidence-based techniques and strategies. We aim to enhance your ability to manage emotions, adapt to changing circumstances, improve organizational skills, and develop effective planning techniques.
Holistic Healing
We are open to discussing and integrating these methods into the treatment plan as long as they are safe, evidence-based, and align with your individual goals and preferences. We prioritize a collaborative approach, where we work together to explore and incorporate alternative strategies that complement traditional therapeutic interventions.
Medication Management
Medication can play a valuable role in managing ADHD symptoms. We work closely with psychiatrists or other healthcare professionals to assess the need for medication and determine the most suitable options. Regular monitoring and adjustments are made to ensure optimal symptom control and minimize side effects.
Psychiatric Assessment
Whether you are self-diagnosed or seeking a professional evaluation, we encourage a comprehensive psychiatric assessment to ensure accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment planning. This assessment with our partnered organization may involve an in-depth evaluation of your symptoms, medical history, and co-occurring conditions. It helps us tailor the treatment approach to your specific needs.
