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.

Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist in CA & NY
Adult ADHD is something I am very passionate about reducing the stigma of. During my time in graduate school I helped to create a manual to helps students with learning differences such as a ADHD learn to navigate their graduate school experience (e.g. how to get accommodations and support). I enjoy helping my clients understand their strengths that may have developed as a result of ADHD. I am also rewarded by helping my clients navigate the significant challenges that come related to ADHD. Together we will work to help you find organization, planning, and coping skills that will work for you. Please note that I provide therapy for ADHD but do not offer testing but I can help you find someone who can help you with that.

Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
ADHD in adults often gets misunderstood as a simple attention problem, but it's actually a complex neurological difference affecting everything from decision-making to emotional responses. Many high-achieving adults live with undiagnosed ADHD for years, developing workarounds that eventually become unsustainable. I help clients move beyond exhausting coping mechanisms toward sustainable approaches that capitalize on ADHD advantages while addressing perfectionism and self-criticism.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
We have certification in spectrum based work, but more importantly we have experience with working with individuals with ADHD and we recognize different forms of ADHD require different types of care. For instance, ADHD from mold and toxin exposure may require functional support along with executive functioning support; whereas ADHD born from trauma may require a more parts based approach or ADHD from epigenetic origins may benefit from functional, integrative and self esteem support with an intersectional lens. These are just some examples of different ways to approach and offer support and care. We also witness some neurodiversity could be an adaptive response to dysfunctional oppressive systems. We may coordinate care with colleagues who offer that kind of support to clients who identify as neurodiverse and POC/GM and who would like that adaptation affirmed for the innate wisdom it carries in navigating systems, while also offering care for the injury or impact from navigating these systems and the implicit demands of masking within them. We also credit here the work of dear colleague Erin Trent-Johnson of Black Mama Body.

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.
