Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional Psychologist (P7619) in Alberta, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) for the rest of Canada
Daniel, an ADHD-CCSP (ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider) with the Combined type of ADHD, has extensive experience spanning many years. ADHD has been a mixed bag for him, bringing both advantages and challenges. The challenges included severe hyperactivity, inattentiveness, and notably slower maturity compared to his peers. However, growing up on a farm provided him with ample space to expend his energy and explore creative outlets, mitigating these challenges. Despite this, socially and academically, he faced significant difficulties, such as spending many years in the “Learning Resource Room” with other struggling students, among other challenges.
Despite these setbacks and failures, Daniel displayed brilliance with creative thinking, moments of exceptional attention to detail, and deep emotional intuition. Later in life, he was able to merge these strengths with remarkable academic success, earning his master's degree with nearly a perfect GPA.
At 58, Daniel continues to face challenges posed by his own ADHD, yet he has harnessed its unique strengths to become a person of remarkable capabilities and character. He is intimately familiar with developmental disorders such as ADHD, autism, learning disabilities, and personality disorders, which are often linked to trauma, due to familial experience.

Lyndsay McKerracher
Psychologist, BA MA
ADHD symptoms can be difficult to manage, but you don't have to deal with them on your own. Through evidence-based treatments, I work to help clients understand their condition, develop strategies to manage their symptoms, and build healthier habits to support their wellbeing. I have experience working with both adolescent and adults with ADHD. For those looking to gain symptom clarity, I also offer adult ADHD assessments.

Laura Hall
Psychologist, MC, Registered Provisional Psychologist
Completing ADHD assessments has been a main part of my job for the past four years. ADHD can be difficult to pinpoint as it can display as anxiety, behavioural issues, inorganization, and being unable to focus on simple tasks and conversations to name a few. I want to help you learn and practice the right tools and techniques to help live a more fulfilled life.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
It's not easy living with ADHD in systems, institutions and communities that were historically built by and for neuro-typical people. Living with neurodivergence means that others struggle to understand, empathize with, and extend grace and compassion towards you. They either do not know about, do not think about, cannot imagine, or refuse to offer you the types of accommodations that would support you to show up, engage and contribute to the best of your abilities. This can make you feel further misunderstood, isolated and marginalized, and reduce your access to resources and opportunities for care and growth.
Let's work together to:
Explore, better understand & accept your unique strengths & challenges as someone living with ADHD.
Learn & apply new techniques & approaches to address some of the executive functioning challenges that come with ADHD (including planning, organization, and time-management).
Learn effective ways of managing your stress to reduce the intensity of the symptoms of ADHD.
Create doable personalized plans to feel more balanced, well, fulfilled and engaged in your work / studies, relationships, and personal life.
Learn about and self-advocate for academic & workplace accommodations that can reduce your experiences of overwhelm & stress, and set you up for success.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, RPC, MPCC
I define myself as a “neurodiversity affirming therapist” and feel absolutely honoured to work with neurodiverse individuals and couples. This means I understand and work with autism, ADHD and other neurodiverse groups through the lens of neuroscience. Autism is associated with differences in the brain which result in a divergence from neurotypical standards, in terms of how brains filter and make sense of information. I endeavour to help clients shed misplaced humiliation and a sense of failure by becoming conscious of and removing the notion that ‘typical’ traits are superior. It is the neurodiverse individuals in our society that move humanity along.
