DL, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCTP
I specialize in working with adults with ADHD who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or chronically behind despite trying really hard. My approach focuses on building momentum—helping you move from intention to action in realistic, sustainable ways. Together, we work on follow-through, emotional regulation, time blindness, and self-trust, while replacing shame with clarity and forward motion. Therapy isn’t about becoming a different person—it’s about learning how your brain works and using that knowledge to create traction in your life. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s progress and building systems that actually work for an ADHD brain.

Jennifer Canu

You or your child have incredible superpowers, though they may not be recognized as such just yet. I love helping youth and adults discover their strengths, and learn to self-advocate and accept their needs to improve self-esteem and mood, reduce anxiety and relationship and functioning.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Adult ADHD can go undiagnosed for years, and can lead to feeling disorganized, unproductive and self-critical. If you feel held back by forgetfulness, interpersonal conflict, overcommitment, taking on too many things at once and spreading yourself too thin, there is effective help available. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from old patterns and helping you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Hailey Goldberg
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker (MSW), DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™
As a therapist with ADHD myself, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my work with neurodivergent clients. I provide neurodiversity-affirming support for individuals navigating ADHD, executive functioning challenges, burnout, emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and the impacts of living in a world that is not always designed for neurodivergent minds.
My approach focuses on understanding your unique strengths, challenges, and experiences rather than trying to "fix" who you are. Together, we can work on practical strategies, self-compassion, and creating systems that fit your brain, while also addressing the emotional impacts of masking, chronic overwhelm, perfectionism, or feeling misunderstood. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves and build lives that feel both sustainable and authentic.

If your child is struggling and you are concerned he or she may have ADHD, call us today so we can help you form a treatment plan that is helpful for you and your child.

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.
