ADHD
Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood. This is particularly true for girls and women. Girls’ and womens’ ADHD tends to manifest differently from boys and men. The symptoms may be harder to recognize and/or they may have developed strategies to compensate for their ADHD symptoms. This is predominately the case with ADHD testing. Computerized tests such as the T.O.V.A. and the CPT test diagnose 80% of individuals with ADHD. In other words, there is a false negative of 20% of individuals that have ADHD and are not identified by these extensive tests. Hence, a thorough history with a deep understanding of neuroscience and executive functioning is critical to determine whether an individual would qualify for an ADHD diagnosis.
The advances in neuroscience through the technology of brain imaging has facilitated our understanding about the complexity of the brain. The brain is viewed as a self-regulating system. This fundamental human capacity is the ability to regulate and control our thoughts, feelings and behavior. Recent developments in neuroscience have increased our understanding of the neural underpinnings of self-regulation. Self-regulation is often used interchangeably with the term of executive functioning.
Despite these challenges, being neurodiverse offers great advantages. First and foremost, neurodiverse individuals are intelligent. They have average to above average IQ’s. They naturally think outside of the box and are innovative by nature. In fact, it is noted that many successful entrepreneurs have ADHD. The areas of their ADHD that have lead to their success in business include hyper-focusing, divergent thinking, risk taking, and hyperactivity. With therapy and ADHD coaching, one can learn to harness one’s strengths and minimize one’s weaknesses to be healthy, happy and successful.

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.
