Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I believe to effectively treat ADHD you have to have ADHD. I don't treat ADHD by trying to make you act or seem like someone you're not. I treat ADHD by helping you develop skills, habits, and support for whatever aspects of ADHD you would like to improve.

Rosemarie Manfredi
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a neuropsychologist, I have extensive experience in the diagnosis and evaluation of ADHD in children, teens, and adults. I earned a certification as an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) in 2020. In my practice, I offer diagnostic evaluations to help determine whether a person has ADHD, as well as more comprehensive evaluations that identify the impact of ADHD on learning, development, and behavior. These more comprehensive evaluations allow me to make specific and individualized recommendations for educational, career, and treatment settings. Additionally, I offer career assessments and guidance for individuals with ADHD in order to help find or craft a career that aligns with their interests, abilities, and skills. Finally, I provide academic and executive function coaching services for adults with ADHD.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults who have ADHD and bring both lived experience and professional training to this work. ADHD can shape how people think, feel, relate, and organise their lives, often creating patterns of overwhelm, frustration, or self-criticism alongside creativity and energy.
My approach draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how ADHD shows up internally and in daily life. This may include working with attention, emotional regulation, relationships, and long-standing strategies developed to cope with pressure or misunderstanding. Sessions are shaped around what is most useful, whether through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both.
