Dr. William K. Grevatt
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Ed.D. (CA Medical Board License #RP 227)
My approach to therapy as a Jungian analyst is to listen deeply to discover the unique person that you are and the problems you are facing. In a safe, caring, and supportive setting we will utilize dream analysis, journaling, and other creative work to help guide you back to the wisdom within.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
We have certification in spectrum based work, but more importantly we have experience with working with individuals with ADHD and we recognize different forms of ADHD require different types of care. For instance, ADHD from mold and toxin exposure may require functional support along with executive functioning support; whereas ADHD born from trauma may require a more parts based approach or ADHD from epigenetic origins may benefit from functional, integrative and self esteem support with an intersectional lens. These are just some examples of different ways to approach and offer support and care. We also witness some neurodiversity could be an adaptive response to dysfunctional oppressive systems. We may coordinate care with colleagues who offer that kind of support to clients who identify as neurodiverse and POC/GM and who would like that adaptation affirmed for the innate wisdom it carries in navigating systems, while also offering care for the injury or impact from navigating these systems and the implicit demands of masking within them. We also credit here the work of dear colleague Erin Trent-Johnson of Black Mama Body.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
As an ADHDer myself, I work with adult ADHDers from a strengths-based, non-pathologizing perspective. ADHD is a natural variation in brain functioning that comes with its own perks and pitfalls. I can help you identify and celebrate your unique strengths, such as creativity, curiosity, enthusiasm, and resilience. I can also help you cope with the difficulties you may face in a world that's not designed for your neurotype, such as time management, organizing tasks, staying focused, and other executive functioning challenges. I don't want to change or fix you, but rather help you to find what works for you and respect what you want and need. I respect your autonomy and will work with you to make goals that are meaningful and realistic for you. I also understand how hard it can be to face stigma and discrimination because of ADHD, and I offer you a safe and supportive space where you can be yourself without judgement or shame. My approach is based on the ideas of neurodiversity-affirming therapy, as well as the latest research on ADHD and my own personal experience.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
ADHD, generally considered a childhood condition, is affecting more and more adults. Hypnotherapy can be an effective tool to help address ADHD, helping to enhance focus and attention. This therapeutic approach leverages the power of the subconscious mind to reframe thought patterns and improve cognitive function. By entering a state of deep relaxation, individuals can access their subconscious mind, where they can work on reinforcing positive habits and behaviors.

There are many reasons why children struggle with the symptoms related to ADHD. In this technological world, children are conditioned to have shorter attention spans, need immediate gratification, and have lower frustration tolerance. Regardless of whether your child meets all of the criteria for an official ADHD diagnosis, there are many things that can be done to enhance your child's natural inclinations to learn, increase their relational intelligence and coping skills, and improve positive behaviors both at home and at school. If your child is struggling and you are concerned he or she may have ADHD, call us today so we can help you form a treatment plan that is helpful for you and your child.

Downey is a southeast Los Angeles County city known as a hub of Latino middle-class life, with deep Mexican-American roots, strong family networks, and a proud civic identity (and NASA-era aerospace history). Mental health needs center on intergenerational family dynamics, work and financial stress, and stigma that still frames therapy as a last resort for many.
