Melanie Simms
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I have additional training and lived experience with ADHD. I love supporting ADHDers with better understanding, accepting (and even embracing) their ADHD brain and developing systems to support executive functioning challenges.

Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many of the teens I see have ADHD, though it is rarely the reason a family calls. They call because of the arguing over homework, the shame that has built up after years of being told to try harder, or the anxiety that grew in the gaps. I work on the emotional side of ADHD, meaning frustration, self-criticism, and conflict at home, alongside practical structure. When a family needs a formal evaluation, our practice has an assessment team, so nobody has to start over elsewhere.

Alexis Hollingsworth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I often work with college students just now learning about their ADHD diagnosis. I help those with ADHD navigate how to find strategies that work for you when it comes to completing tasks and moving throughout life. Society was not built with neurodivergence in mind but that doesn't mean you can't thrive and it doesn't mean you are broken or defective, you just need to find out what works for you and not what works for everyone else.

Brad Gilmore
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
From ages 8 and up, I work with patients struggling with attention issues based on developmental level and age. A large part of this work is educating and reframing what can often be felt as a deficit (hint: it's not). Rather, we focus on the unique strengths and abilities of being able to have vast and sometimes laser-like focus while also addressing current issues coming up with friends, family, significant others and coworkers. When necessary, we also discuss treatment options such as medication, skills training and organizational support.
