Lauren Whitlow
Psychologist, PsyD
Living with ADHD can affect much more than attention. It can impact organization, time management, emotional regulation, relationships, work or school performance, and self-confidence. Whether you've recently been diagnosed or have been managing symptoms for years, therapy can help you better understand how ADHD shows up in your daily life. Together, we'll identify your unique strengths, develop practical strategies to improve focus and follow through, create systems that work for your lifestyle, and address the frustration, overwhelm, or self criticism that often accompanies ADHD.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Both children and adults can have ADHD. The most pragmatic treatment for ADHD is Behavior hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy is a promising, non-invasive complementary approach to manage ADHD symptoms in both children and adults, though it is not a cure. It can help improve focus, reduce anxiety and impulsivity, and develop healthy habits. It is particularly useful for individuals for whom medication does not work or has severe side effects.

Tal Brafford
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC-A
As a neurodivergent person, I understand the weight of masking and some of the many challenges with ADHD, while appreciating the nuances and the diversity with which it animates in each individual. I get so much joy out of helping people grow to accept themselves and live authentically. I do not have the credentials to diagnose ADHD. My work is focused primarily on self-discovery, acceptance, and exploring executive functioning support. Above all else, I don't want my neurodivergent clients to feel alone.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many people with ADHD have received and internalized the message that they are lazy or not living up to their potential; it is common for individuals with ADHD to be hard on themselves in an attempt to increase productivity and reliability. Yet, each failure reinforces the message that they are inadequate. Moreover, the nature of ADHD often makes it difficult to organize and soothe difficult thoughts and emotions, leaving one vulnerable to anxiety and depression.

Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
ADHD isn't just about focus — it's often a system of parts in constant negotiation. The part chasing stimulation, the one paralyzed by overwhelm, the inner critic narrating all of it. I work with late-diagnosed adults and those who've been managing their whole lives to understand what's actually happening beneath the surface — and to lead from Self rather than being run by the loudest part in the room.

Emily Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MDiv, PhD, LMFT-S
Navigating the Brilliance and the Burnout
ADHD is rarely just about "focus"—it is a complex, lived experience that colors every interaction, emotion, and internal narrative. In my practice, I work with neurodivergent individuals and couples to move past the shame of "not doing enough" and toward a life of sustainable functioning and relational safety.
For the Individual: Moving Beyond the Mask
Living with a neurodivergent brain in a neurotypical world often leads to a chronic state of burnout. Together, we address the invisible hurdles that standard productivity hacks ignore:
Rejection Sensitivity (RSD): Navigating the intense, often overwhelming emotional pain triggered by perceived criticism or rejection.
Demand Avoidance: Understanding the brain’s "threat response" to expectations and finding collaborative ways to move into action without the paralysis of shame.
Managing the "Overload": Developing strategies to prevent and recover from meltdowns or sensory overwhelm, honoring your nervous system’s unique limits.
For the Couple: Ending the "Parent-Child" Dynamic
ADHD can create a profound "relational gap" where one partner feels like a nag and the other feels constantly "less than." My work with couples centers on Systems Theory and Attachment, helping you:
Translate neurodivergent "language" so both partners feel seen and heard.
Dismantle the cycle of demand avoidance and reactive withdrawal.
Whether you are navigating a new diagnosis or have been "white-knuckling" it for years, I provide a space that is curious, courageous, and deeply affirming. We don't just "manage" your ADHD; we build a life and a relationship that actually fits your brain.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
ADHD is often misunderstood—especially in adults, and especially in people who have spent years masking, overcompensating, or being mislabeled. Many of our clients come in feeling burnt out, scattered, or frustrated, not because they’re “failing,” but because they’ve been trying to function in systems that weren’t built for how their brains work. At Nour Counseling, we take ADHD seriously—and we look at the full picture, including how culture, expectations, and identity shape the way ADHD shows up and gets interpreted.
We offer comprehensive ADHD assessments that go beyond a checklist. Our evaluations include a detailed report with clear findings and individualized recommendations, including accommodations when appropriate. In therapy, we work actively with you to understand your specific patterns—executive functioning, time agnosia, emotional regulation, task initiation—and build strategies that actually fit your life. This might look like restructuring systems, unlearning internalized narratives, setting realistic expectations, and creating supports that reduce overwhelm. Our goal isn’t to force you into someone else’s mold—it’s to help you understand how your brain works and move through the world with more clarity, support, and self-trust.

Winston-Salem is home to Wake Forest University School of Medicine and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist — one of the most significant academic medical centers in the Southeast — and this concentration of medical training and research deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of its mental health clinical community. The city's tobacco heritage — once the home of R.J. Reynolds — has given way to a growing medical, technology, and arts economy, and therapists frequently work with the identity transitions of a workforce navigating this shift. The city has a large Black community with deep historical roots in the Piedmont Triad, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma and intergenerational resilience are well represented. Winston-Salem's arts and innovation culture supports strong demand for therapists experienced with creative identity and career-related stress.
