Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
As a therapist and mother/wife/sister/aunt who support both clients and family who move through the world with ADHD, I have a deep appreciation for the strengths and challenges of ADHD. We are all on the spectrum. That said, ADHD can make life more difficult. I work with teens 16+ and adults with ADHD explore how it helps and hinders the quality of their lives.
My own journey supporting my son through the medical and school systems, as well as experience helping teens with ADHD in school-based counseling during my training and adults in private practice, has provided me with a deeper understanding of how ADHD shows up. it has also shown me how essential it is to collaborate with my clients to identify strategies and tools that help them navigate their challenges as well as play off their strengths.

Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many of the teens I see have ADHD, though it is rarely the reason a family calls. They call because of the arguing over homework, the shame that has built up after years of being told to try harder, or the anxiety that grew in the gaps. I work on the emotional side of ADHD, meaning frustration, self-criticism, and conflict at home, alongside practical structure. When a family needs a formal evaluation, our practice has an assessment team, so nobody has to start over elsewhere.
