Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have personal and lived experience with ADHD, including parenting a child with ADHD. As ADHD is a common diagnosis in writers and other creative brained-people, this is a diagnosis I often work with in the room. I am able to validate the struggles of living with ADHD, while also understanding the many gifts of an ADHD brain.

Ryan Muldoon
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Navigating an ADHD brain can feel like walking through a cluttered room. While moving from one thought to the next you may bump into clutter along the way. Although you may be able to maneuver around some of them, an overwhelming amount of clutter can bring you to a halt. This is how I used to describe my own ADHD, until I discovered various tricks, tools, and creative hacks that I can now share with you.

Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have a strong interest in helping individuals and couples better understand, accept, and work with ADHD. In relationships, ADHD can easily become filtered through painful or inaccurate narratives—partners may misinterpret symptoms as character flaws, while the person with ADHD often carries longstanding, self-critical beliefs that become deeply ingrained over time. In our work, we slow down these dynamics, build shared or individual understanding, and replace corrosive stories with more accurate and compassionate ones.

Aimen Bukhari
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
I work with adults with ADHD who feel overwhelmed by mental clutter, procrastination, time blindness, and emotional reactivity, often alongside anxiety and self-criticism. Therapy focuses on stabilization first, building realistic executive-function systems that fit your life, and then addressing deeper patterns of shame, burnout, and overcompensation.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
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.

Pasadena is home to Caltech and the Huntington Hospital, and the city's intellectual, academic culture creates demand for therapists experienced in working with high-achievers navigating perfectionism, burnout, and the psychological demands of elite academic and scientific environments. The city's established residential character and proximity to Los Angeles give it a distinct therapy landscape — less entertainment-focused than West Hollywood, more oriented toward depth work, relationships, and long-term growth. Pasadena also has a significant older adult population, with therapists specializing in aging, life review, and elder family dynamics well represented. Many practices serve clients drawn from across the San Gabriel Valley and Foothill communities.
