I often work with college students just now learning about their ADHD diagnosis. I help those with ADHD navigate how to find strategies that work for you when it comes to completing tasks and moving throughout life. Society was not built with neurodivergence in mind but that doesn't mean you can't thrive and it doesn't mean you are broken or defective, you just need to find out what works for you and not what works for everyone else.

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.

Hailey Goldberg
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker (MSW), DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™
As a therapist with ADHD myself, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my work with neurodivergent clients. I provide neurodiversity-affirming support for individuals navigating ADHD, executive functioning challenges, burnout, emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and the impacts of living in a world that is not always designed for neurodivergent minds.
My approach focuses on understanding your unique strengths, challenges, and experiences rather than trying to "fix" who you are. Together, we can work on practical strategies, self-compassion, and creating systems that fit your brain, while also addressing the emotional impacts of masking, chronic overwhelm, perfectionism, or feeling misunderstood. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves and build lives that feel both sustainable and authentic.
