Not everyone’s brain works the same way. Some folks have a bigger emotional reaction to a fight and a slower return to baseline. Some people struggle with focus and concentration. Some people find they can be hyperfocused on a task to the detriment of their job, or might feel very overwhelmed in a crowd. For a lot of our patients, being diagnosed with is the first difficult but necessary step to change, whether it’s finding out you have ADHD, PTSD, a personality disorder or if you’re on the Autism spectrum. Learning about how your brain works can help you become more adaptive, so that you can better apply your strengths and avoid pitfalls. Our therapists love working with brains of all varieties, including yours.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Some studies suggest that twice as many marriages touched by ADHD end in divorce. You might be surprised by that- the common understanding of ADHD is that it’s mainly diagnosed in energetic grade school boys. In fact, many very intelligent adults aren’t diagnosed because their resourcefulness has helped them learn how to cope, but they are barely hanging on by a thread. And this precariousness shows up most clearly in their marriage. Here are some signs your partner might have ADHD (and why you might feel perpetually annoyed at them):
They leave their stuff everywhere.
They become so engrossed in something that they lose track of time, sometimes for hours, and don’t hear you when you call their name.
They forget to call.
You feel like when you are out of their sight you are out of their mind completely.
It seems like they have trouble attending to you at all when they’re attending to their own needs.
They forget where their keys are.
They have trouble with ‘adulting’ (showering regularly, making dinner, doing dishes, etc.)
You often feel more like their parent than their partner.
They’re sensitive to criticism that these behaviors upset you.
The list goes on and on. Couples touched by ADHD often need an assessment, couples counseling and sometimes individual therapy. You can get through this together- know you are not alone in this struggle and we can help you turn around these trends.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence are not indications that something is wrong, but reflect differences in how the brain processes and responds to the world. These differences can bring both strengths and challenges in areas like focus, organization, and emotional regulation. Together, we explore your patterns, reduce self-criticism, and develop approaches that support how you naturally think and function.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life with ADHD can feel like running a marathon in your mind while everyone else seems to be walking. The constant mental noise, forgotten details, missed deadlines, and emotional rollercoaster can leave you frustrated, ashamed, and worn out. Relationships get tense, confidence fades, and faith can start to feel distant under the weight of distraction and self-criticism.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that ADHD is not a lack of effort—it’s a nervous system that works differently. Our Christian counselors help you understand how your brain, body, and spirit function together so you can build focus, follow-through, and peace from the inside out.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We combine evidence-based strategies (CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and somatic regulation) with faith-centered coaching to help you:
• Reduce overwhelm and racing thoughts
• Strengthen organization and time management habits that fit your wiring
• Improve emotional regulation and impulse control
• Rebuild confidence and self-trust after years of frustration
• Restore connection in your relationships and your walk with God
You’ll learn to calm your nervous system, recognize patterns early, and create daily rhythms that support both productivity and peace.
What to expect: practical tools, compassionate accountability, and a judgment-free space where grace meets growth.
If you’re tired of trying harder and ready to work smarter with your mind instead of against it, we’re here to help you find clarity, confidence, and calm again—one focused step at a time.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In my practice, I help patients with ADHD by utilizing a comprehensive and personalized approach that addresses their unique needs and challenges. I start with thorough assessments to accurately diagnose ADHD and provide education to help patients and their families understand the condition. Behavioral interventions and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are employed to develop effective coping strategies, improve time management, and address negative thought patterns. Mindfulness practices are taught to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation. I also offer coaching to build specific skills, create structured routines, and explore medication options in collaboration with medical professionals. Family involvement is encouraged to create a supportive environment, and a strength-based approach is used to build confidence and motivation. Ongoing support and follow-up ensure continuous progress and adjustment of therapeutic strategies. This comprehensive approach aims to empower patients with ADHD to manage their symptoms effectively, enhance their strengths, and lead fulfilling lives.

Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I support adolescents and adults with ADHD in understanding how their brains work rather than trying to “fix” them. I support clients in having better management of their ADHD symptoms. I have ADHD myself, so I have a big toolset to offer clients. Sessions focus on organization, emotional regulation, self-compassion, and practical strategies that fit real life, not rigid systems that don’t last.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

We will build your ADHD coping toolbox to feel empowered.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
ADHD is often diagnosed in childhood, but can impact many adults. Symptoms often include inattention, impulsivity, and difficulty initiating tasks or sustaining focus. Adults may notice these symptoms disrupting daily responsibilities, work tasks, and interpersonal relationships. I utilized evidence-based practices to help adults strengthen executive functioning skills, which are the cognitive processes involved in planning tasks, sustaining attention, recalling details, and balancing various tasks.

Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
ADHD can affect every aspect of life, from academics and work, to relationship with family and friends, to your own experience of emotions. My perspective is grounded in an awareness of the interplay of culture and context in the experience of ADHD. I see clients for whom ADHD is their primary reason for coming to therapy, as well as those who are coming in for other reasons but want to see someone who can recognize how ADHD shapes their experiences. In addition to therapy, I offer diagnostic assessments for ADHD as well as executive functioning coaching, all of which can be integrated or stand-alone services.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Your brain works differently, and you've spent your whole life trying to fit into systems that weren't built for you. The missed deadlines, the half-finished projects, the conversations where you realize you stopped listening three sentences ago. It's exhausting, and the frustration compounds when people assume you're lazy or don't care. We help adults with ADHD understand how their brain actually works, develop strategies that fit their wiring instead of fighting against it, and address the anxiety, shame, and relationship strain that often come along for the ride. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.
