Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S, LEP, NCC, APCC, AMFT, ASW, NCC
We move away from the "deficits" model of ADHD and instead focus on how your brain uniquely processes information, dopamine, and time. Whether you struggle with executive dysfunction, rejection sensitivity (RSD), or chronic overwhelm, we provide practical, shame-free strategies—including body doubling sessions—to help you work with your brain instead of against it.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I have particular experience supporting children, adults, and parents of children with ADHD. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by big emotions, impulsivity, school challenges, or daily power struggles. Using a relational and nervous system–informed approach, I help better understand the brain and emotional needs while building practical strategies that support regulation, connection, and more positive relationship dynamics.

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.
