Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I specialize in working with ADHD in therapy and in psychological testing. There can be many nuances with how ADHD shows up in your life - and fortunately, with time and continued research, we as a society are gaining better understanding of these differences and the impacts ADHD can have. Using a neuro-affirming lens, we work to understand and befriend your wiring to help deepen self-understanding and self-compassion, and to develop strategies to support areas of difficulty. And in the case of late-diagnosed adolescents and adults (or for parents navigating a new ADHD diagnosis for their kids), a lot of our work involves seeing yourself (or your child) in a new lens and reframing messages you may have gathered from others about yourself with this new knowledge.

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.

Mojdeh Motamedi
Psychologist, PhD
ADHD often requires a multifaceted approach, which for me includes supporting families in how to respond to their children, teaching and practicing impulse control and frustration tolerance skills, learning ways to organize ones day , psychoeducation about the diagnosis, and working closely with schools and other providers. Given ADHD also can co-occur with other concerns, I also often support individuals with ADHD in other areas as well such as addressing social skills/relationships, autism, anxiety, substance use, and more. I also adjust my approach based on your executive functioning strengths that can vary from person to person with ADHD to some degree. My masters research was on ADHD and I used to work closely with a leading researcher that developed an intervention for children with ADHD. Additionally sometimes trauma symptoms, which I am certified to treat, can be misdiagnosed as ADHD. I'm here to support you and your family through managing ADHD.

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.
