Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
I have a speciality in working with kids, teens and adults in terms of how processing differences such as ADHD can inform home, school, relationships and work. I work from a neurodiversity affirming lens in terms of problem-solving with clients about what works for them and starting with their intuitive wisdom in the development of strategies to assist with task initiation and completion as well as productivity.

Sean Brennan
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
ADHD is far more than a battle with attention. It involves a struggle with deep shame that has developed ever since the little kid in you realized their brain works differently than the other kids. As we grow into adulthood, we can feel increasingly isolated. Who waits until the deadline every single time to get things done? We do! Words like "lazy" and "wasted potential" bounce around in our head. My treatment of ADHD is informed by my own personal experience with it. If you're ready to dramatically improve your quality of life, let's get to work!

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.

Monica Thoelke
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I support Nerodivergent individuals, people with diagnoses of ADHD and ASD. Often adults who did not receive the support they needed in childhood and are discovering some of the issues they have in adulthood are stemming from this. Having the nerodivergent framework to approach life is helpful because it helps to better understanding your feelings, emotions, and behaviors. Creating new pathways to developing your amazing STRENGTHS and reaching your goals.

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.

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.
