Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Neurodivergence takes many forms and traditional therapy focuses on symptom management. I embrace the benefits of neurodivergence while helping you to integrate higher self-understanding as a way to work with your neurobiology instead of against it.

ADHD
Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
There has been a recent spike in recognizing more neurodivergent disorders in adults in these last few years. New research has suggested that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), typically diagnosed in childhood, has often be missed in childhood due to several factors related to a childs temperment, education supports, family life, and many other factors. ADHD can contribute to issues with focusing, motivation, socializing, completing tasks, work, hygeine, and many other factors that sometimes look like depression or anxiety, but have a much different cause. Whole Wellness Therpy offers a broad range of approaches to exploring diagnoses, implementing appropriate solitions tailored to work best with the way our clients work best, and empowering our clients to look at neurodivergence from a strength-based perspective.

ADHD
Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Children and adults with ADHD show a consistent pattern of excess slow-wave activity (theta) and insufficient fast-wave activity (beta) in the brain — leaving them chronically underaroused and struggling to sustain focus.
Neurofeedback corrects this imbalance directly, training the brain to produce faster, more alert rhythms. Studies show improvements in attention, impulse control, and academic performance that persist long after treatment ends.

El Cajon is a San Diego County city home to one of the largest concentrations of Iraqi Christians (Chaldeans) outside Iraq and one of the most significant Somali and East African refugee communities in California, as well as substantial communities from across the Middle East, making it one of the most culturally distinctive cities in Southern California and creating specific demands for culturally and linguistically competent mental health services. The trauma of displacement, war, and refugee journeys is a central concern in the local mental health landscape, and finding therapists who speak Chaldean Neo-Aramaic, Arabic, or Somali and understand the cultural and religious dimensions of these communities' mental health experiences is essential but consistently challenging. San Diego County Behavioral Health provides public services, and community organizations serve immigrant and refugee populations. Common therapy concerns include refugee trauma and PTSD, acculturative stress, religious and cultural identity in diaspora, family and intergenerational conflict between refugee parents and American-raised children, and the grief of displacement and community loss.
