Chris Doorley
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
I've worked with a large number of individuals with ADHD or a number of its symptoms (without a medical diagnosis), and have found a few things that help manage those. The first, organizational supports, are time management and organizational practices. Next, we move onto asking for help— knowing when to push through oneself, or to ask for support. Third, we'll do self-compassion work to be able to forgive yourself when things feel challenging. Last, how does ADHD affect relationships? Some people are familiar with that question, while others haven't asked it yet.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
I work with clients with an ADHD diagnosis, using didactic approaches derived from the science of productivity. I also support the use of psychotropic medications as appropriate. While ADHD may be biological in etiology, the psychological ramifications of living with ADHD can be devastating; feeling like a failure from early educational experiences, clients benefit from the support psychotherapy offers.

Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have a strong interest in helping individuals and couples better understand, accept, and work with ADHD. In relationships, ADHD can easily become filtered through painful or inaccurate narratives—partners may misinterpret symptoms as character flaws, while the person with ADHD often carries longstanding, self-critical beliefs that become deeply ingrained over time. In our work, we slow down these dynamics, build shared or individual understanding, and replace corrosive stories with more accurate and compassionate ones.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
ADHD is most often identified through symptoms involving attention-deficit disorders and major hyperactivity. My approach to the treatment of ADHD involves understanding and treating mind and brain. I introduce weekly talk sessions, the use of supplements for anxiety and brain health, and the use of NuCalm technology (see NuCalm.com) for calming the sympathetic nervous system and bringing on the parasympathetic nervous system. I recognize that a diagnosis of ADHD also encompasses behavior/conduct problems, learning disabilities, and increase in anxiety and depression, difficulties with peer relationships, poor oral health and other health problems, and an increased risk of injury. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood. This is particularly true for girls and women. Girls’ and womens’ ADHD tends to manifest differently from boys and men. The symptoms may be harder to recognize and/or they may have developed strategies to compensate for their ADHD symptoms. This is predominately the case with ADHD testing. Computerized tests such as the T.O.V.A. and the CPT test diagnose 80% of individuals with ADHD. In other words, there is a false negative of 20% of individuals that have ADHD and are not identified by these extensive tests. Hence, a thorough history with a deep understanding of neuroscience and executive functioning is critical to determine whether an individual would qualify for an ADHD diagnosis.
The advances in neuroscience through the technology of brain imaging has facilitated our understanding about the complexity of the brain. The brain is viewed as a self-regulating system. This fundamental human capacity is the ability to regulate and control our thoughts, feelings and behavior. Recent developments in neuroscience have increased our understanding of the neural underpinnings of self-regulation. Self-regulation is often used interchangeably with the term of executive functioning.
Despite these challenges, being neurodiverse offers great advantages. First and foremost, neurodiverse individuals are intelligent. They have average to above average IQ’s. They naturally think outside of the box and are innovative by nature. In fact, it is noted that many successful entrepreneurs have ADHD. The areas of their ADHD that have lead to their success in business include hyper-focusing, divergent thinking, risk taking, and hyperactivity. With therapy and ADHD coaching, one can learn to harness one’s strengths and minimize one’s weaknesses to be healthy, happy and successful.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Neurodiversity-affirming ADHD therapy and adult ADHD evaluations grounded in the understanding that ADHD is not simply a collection of symptoms, but a unique way of experiencing, processing, attending to, and engaging with the world. My work supports teens and adults navigating executive functioning differences, emotional intensity, rejection sensitivity, masking, burnout, perfectionism, demand avoidance, nervous system overwhelm, and the cumulative impact of years spent feeling misunderstood, "too much," "not enough," inconsistent, lazy, unmotivated, or perpetually behind despite working incredibly hard.
ADHD often extends far beyond attention alone. It can shape relationships, self-esteem, sensory experiences, motivation, emotional regulation, time perception, energy management, organization, follow-through, identity, and the ways we connect with our interests, passions, and creativity. It can also influence how the nervous system responds to expectations, demands, transitions, uncertainty, criticism, and chronic stress.
This work explores the intersections of neurodivergence, trauma, culture, giftedness, disability, family systems, identity, and internalized ableist narratives that may have shaped your relationship with yourself. Particular attention is given to the ways masking, overcompensation, perfectionism, people-pleasing, chronic self-monitoring, and overachievement can develop as adaptive responses within environments that may not have recognized, supported, or accommodated neurodivergent needs.
Rather than focusing solely on productivity, performance, or behavioral change, therapy centers self-understanding, nervous system regulation, self-trust, self-compassion, and creating sustainable ways of living that honor how your brain and body naturally work. Depending on your goals, our work may incorporate EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, parts work, executive functioning support, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, and practical strategies that build upon strengths rather than attempting to force neurotypical standards.
My work is informed by both professional expertise and lived understanding of neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, culture, and systemic oppression, I recognize that ADHD often presents differently than dominant stereotypes suggest. My practice is especially attuned to high-masking, high-achieving, gifted, AFAB, BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, creative, spiritually-oriented, and otherwise frequently overlooked individuals whose experiences may have been missed, misunderstood, minimized, or misdiagnosed.
I also provide comprehensive adult ADHD evaluations through a culturally responsive, neurodivergent-affirming assessment process designed to recognize nuanced and complex presentations. Evaluations move beyond checklists alone and include an in-depth exploration of developmental history, lived experience, executive functioning, sensory patterns, masking, strengths, challenges, identity, and functional impacts, resulting in a thorough affirming report with individualized recommendations and resources.
