Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
If you are navigating ADHD, you may be exhausted by standard behavioural advice that tries to force your mind into a rigid, neurotypical mold. My virtual practice in Vancouver, BC, focuses on how your unique cognitive rhythm lives within your nervous system rather than pathologizing your style of focus. Through gentle somatic curiosity and experiential tracking, I help you develop a deeper self-knowing that honours how your brain naturally processes and engages with the world.

My sessions include a focus on executive functioning and life skills when working with ADHD along with gaining a deeper understanding of challenges, experiences, emotions and goals. There can be a lot to learn about ADHD for both those newly diagnosed and those who have been navigating it for a long time. Whether you're seeking a deeper understanding, practical strategies, or support in daily challenges, I'm here to help.

Alex Henderson
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, B.A
I have training and experience working with numerous aspects of ADHD including help with medication management, emotional fatigue and strategies for overcoming issues of focus and attention. My contention is that ADHD is not a disorder but rather a collection of experiences that cluster around the differential in the way our brains and our environments organise information. Working from this perspective I aim to draw together a comprehensive attitude shift towards the self and one’s habits as well as a compendium of tools that can be used to compensate for the differences in between these systems. With counselling we can not only gain insight into the ways ADHD is effecting our lives, but we can also process and work through the impacts.

Loralee Schultz
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Psyc, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO & CCPA & BCACC Member
Standard therapeutic advice often fails ADHD minds by focusing heavily on behavioural compliance, strict routines, or simply 'trying harder.' In our sessions, we completely throw out that neurotypical playbook. Having navigated life with ADHD myself, I work with you to understand the brilliant, complex, and sometimes chaotic way your unique brain actually processes the world. We look closely at executive dysfunction, rejection sensitive dysphoria, and the intense exhaustion of masking. Together, we will focus on building self-compassion and designing customized life strategies that actively support and honour your natural cognitive operating system.

Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Living with ADHD can feel like your mind is always moving faster than life around you—frustration, self-doubt, or overwhelm can make it hard to feel steady or in control. Together, we’ll work to understand your unique patterns of attention and energy, uncover the strengths beneath the chaos, and develop tools that actually fit the way your brain works. My approach integrates nervous system regulation and practical strategies to help you feel more focused, calm, and confident in your day-to-day life.

Liz Dean
Registered Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
It's overwhelming to live with ADHD, it can feel like a constant battle as it impacts almost every area of your life. I find the worst part of ADHD is that it is often misinterpreted by the self and others as a lack of effort or care and can lead to low self-esteem, anxiety, frustration and self-blame. I can help you understand your symptoms and how they uniquely present in your life so together we can explore and build the wisdom and courage to find a new path forward.

ADHD
Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
ADHD is far more nuanced than the common image of a restless child who can't sit still — it is a lifelong neurological condition that affects attention regulation, executive functioning, emotional sensitivity, and sense of self in ways that often go unrecognized well into adulthood. At Nightingale Counselling, we have a particular expertise in identifying and supporting adults with undiagnosed ADHD, especially women, who have spent years masking their struggles and may have come to see themselves as lazy, unreliable, or overwhelmed without understanding why. Our approach combines psychoeducation, acceptance-focused therapy, and close collaboration with diagnostic and medical services, because we believe the gold standard for ADHD treatment is one that addresses both the neurological and emotional dimensions of the condition.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
ADHD means a nervous system that works differently, and often a lifetime of being told you're too much or not enough. I work with adults navigating late diagnosis, burnout, relationship strain, and the particular exhaustion of masking. Sessions are flexible and practical, and I'm not going to pathologize the way your brain works.

Vancouver's extreme housing affordability crisis has become a defining mental health issue, with therapists frequently addressing financial stress, housing precarity, and the grief of displacement from a city many can no longer afford to stay in. The city's large East Asian community — particularly its Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and South Asian populations — drives demand for culturally fluent therapists who can navigate family dynamics, immigration stress, and the intersection of cultural expectations with individual wellbeing. BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services provides institutional support, while Vancouver's large private therapy community is concentrated in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, and the West End. BC's expanded telehealth access makes it easier to connect with therapists across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
