Diane Hough, LMFT — Integrative Therapy for Relationships & Life Transitions
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT

Therapy can help you better understand your patterns, work with your strengths, and find approaches that support greater ease, confidence, and self-acceptance.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Adult ADHD can go undiagnosed for years, and can lead to feeling disorganized, unproductive and self-critical. If you feel held back by forgetfulness, interpersonal conflict, overcommitment, taking on too many things at once and spreading yourself too thin, there is effective help available. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from old patterns and helping you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
I work with clients with an ADHD diagnosis, using didactic approaches derived from the science of productivity. I also support the use of psychotropic medications as appropriate. While ADHD may be biological in etiology, the psychological ramifications of living with ADHD can be devastating; feeling like a failure from early educational experiences, clients benefit from the support psychotherapy offers.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
As an ADHDer myself, I work with adult ADHDers from a strengths-based, non-pathologizing perspective. ADHD is a natural variation in brain functioning that comes with its own perks and pitfalls. I can help you identify and celebrate your unique strengths, such as creativity, curiosity, enthusiasm, and resilience. I can also help you cope with the difficulties you may face in a world that's not designed for your neurotype, such as time management, organizing tasks, staying focused, and other executive functioning challenges. I don't want to change or fix you, but rather help you to find what works for you and respect what you want and need. I respect your autonomy and will work with you to make goals that are meaningful and realistic for you. I also understand how hard it can be to face stigma and discrimination because of ADHD, and I offer you a safe and supportive space where you can be yourself without judgement or shame. My approach is based on the ideas of neurodiversity-affirming therapy, as well as the latest research on ADHD and my own personal experience.

Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
ADHD can create very real challenges in relationships, from missed details and uneven responsibilities to emotional reactivity and feeling chronically misunderstood. I work with individuals and couples throughout Florida, Texas, and California to understand how ADHD is affecting their relationships without turning one person into “the problem.” Together, we build practical systems for communication, follow-through, conflict, and connection.
