Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Neurodiversity-affirming ADHD therapy and adult ADHD evaluations grounded in the understanding that ADHD is not simply a collection of symptoms, but a unique way of experiencing, processing, attending to, and engaging with the world. My work supports teens and adults navigating executive functioning differences, emotional intensity, rejection sensitivity, masking, burnout, perfectionism, demand avoidance, nervous system overwhelm, and the cumulative impact of years spent feeling misunderstood, "too much," "not enough," inconsistent, lazy, unmotivated, or perpetually behind despite working incredibly hard.
ADHD often extends far beyond attention alone. It can shape relationships, self-esteem, sensory experiences, motivation, emotional regulation, time perception, energy management, organization, follow-through, identity, and the ways we connect with our interests, passions, and creativity. It can also influence how the nervous system responds to expectations, demands, transitions, uncertainty, criticism, and chronic stress.
This work explores the intersections of neurodivergence, trauma, culture, giftedness, disability, family systems, identity, and internalized ableist narratives that may have shaped your relationship with yourself. Particular attention is given to the ways masking, overcompensation, perfectionism, people-pleasing, chronic self-monitoring, and overachievement can develop as adaptive responses within environments that may not have recognized, supported, or accommodated neurodivergent needs.
Rather than focusing solely on productivity, performance, or behavioral change, therapy centers self-understanding, nervous system regulation, self-trust, self-compassion, and creating sustainable ways of living that honor how your brain and body naturally work. Depending on your goals, our work may incorporate EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, parts work, executive functioning support, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, and practical strategies that build upon strengths rather than attempting to force neurotypical standards.
My work is informed by both professional expertise and lived understanding of neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, culture, and systemic oppression, I recognize that ADHD often presents differently than dominant stereotypes suggest. My practice is especially attuned to high-masking, high-achieving, gifted, AFAB, BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, creative, spiritually-oriented, and otherwise frequently overlooked individuals whose experiences may have been missed, misunderstood, minimized, or misdiagnosed.
I also provide comprehensive adult ADHD evaluations through a culturally responsive, neurodivergent-affirming assessment process designed to recognize nuanced and complex presentations. Evaluations move beyond checklists alone and include an in-depth exploration of developmental history, lived experience, executive functioning, sensory patterns, masking, strengths, challenges, identity, and functional impacts, resulting in a thorough affirming report with individualized recommendations and resources.

ADHD
Chris Doorley
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
I've worked with a large number of individuals with ADHD or a number of its symptoms (without a medical diagnosis), and have found a few things that help manage those. The first, organizational supports, are time management and organizational practices. Next, we move onto asking for help— knowing when to push through oneself, or to ask for support. Third, we'll do self-compassion work to be able to forgive yourself when things feel challenging. Last, how does ADHD affect relationships? Some people are familiar with that question, while others haven't asked it yet.

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.
