Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
ADHD in adults often gets misunderstood as a simple attention problem, but it's actually a complex neurological difference affecting everything from decision-making to emotional responses. Many high-achieving adults live with undiagnosed ADHD for years, developing workarounds that eventually become unsustainable. I help clients move beyond exhausting coping mechanisms toward sustainable approaches that capitalize on ADHD advantages while addressing perfectionism and self-criticism.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
My favorite way to approach client who has been diagnosed with ADHD is to suggest that while the world operates on an Android or PC platform, the ADHD brain thrives with an iOS operating system. I don't mean this literally - I just mean that drawing inside the lines often doesn't produce creative output, and school and work put executive function on a pedestal, ignoring the wonders of imagination, idea generation, hyperfocus, and other amazing attributes that tend to accompany neurodiversity. Typically, I talk to clients about impulse control, emotional regulation, flexible thinking (go with the flow, task switching), working memory (holding a task in your mind long enough to get a task done), self-monitoring, planning and prioritizing, task initiation, and organization. We usually select the top one or two areas where clients want to focus and use that as our entry point.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Many of the people I work with are highly capable adults and students who either have an ADHD diagnosis or strongly relate to ADHD traits. On the outside, you may be described as bright, caring, or high achieving. On the inside, it can feel very different: difficulty focusing, time blindness, perfectionism, starting but not finishing tasks, or feeling scattered even when you care deeply. You might be doing well in school or work, but only by pushing yourself much harder than other people seem to need to.
Many people tell me it feels like they have spent their whole life doing extra work on everything, not because they are not smart, but because of ADHD. There can be real grief in seeing how misunderstood you have been by yourself and by the systems around you, and a deep tiredness from carrying so much for so long.
ADHD can also shape relationships. You may worry about disappointing people, missing cues, or being “too much” or “not enough,” even in close connections. Many people care deeply while feeling misunderstood, or feel confused and frustrated about how attention, emotion, or follow through show up with partners, friends, or family.
In our work, we look at ADHD through a trauma‑informed, nervous‑system‑aware lens. We explore how your brain and body naturally work, how past experiences and expectations have shaped your story, and what actually supports your attention instead of fighting against it. This can include patterns like hyperfocus, where you can drop deeply into what interests you while struggling with tasks that feel boring or overwhelming. I also make room for the gifts that can come with ADHD: creativity, sensitivity, and the capacity to care deeply.
The focus is on softening self‑criticism, honoring both the grief and the strengths, and finding ways to navigate school, work, relationships, and daily life in a way that fits how you are wired. Working with ADHD is central to my practice, and I bring a great deal of respect and care to this work.

Bee Still Grief & Loss Counseling, LLC.
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor
ADHD is so much more than having a hard time paying attention. It impacts executive functioning which means starting and completing things are difficult. Things that are habits for others like bathing, doing dishes, or brushing their teeth are often tasks for those with ADHD. Interacting socially can feel difficult. Finding the right career path can be challenging. It also often manifest as feelings of anxiety and depression. Any of this sound familiar? I believe this is an area I can collaborate with clients in creating a safe space to process feelings while also finding practical tools to help them navigate the struggles that often come with ADHD

Tab Shamsi
Psychologist, PsyD, ABPP
I specialize in working with adults experiencing ADHD and executive dysfunction, whether or not they meet formal diagnostic criteria. Over the course of my career, I have supported more than 500 clients struggling with focus, procrastination, emotional regulation, organization, and follow-through, particularly in high-pressure academic and professional environments. Many are intelligent and driven yet feel frustrated by inconsistency or self-criticism despite clear strengths. Our work is structured and practical, developing personalized systems that support attention and execution while also addressing the emotional patterns, perfectionism, anxiety, and relationship strain that often accompany executive challenges. The goal is not simply managing symptoms, but building reliable performance, stronger self-trust, and sustainable success in demanding settings.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients manage their ADHD and attentional issues. While I work with clients who were diagnosed early in life, many of my clients have discovered they have ADHD as adults. This is a unique challenge, since often undiagnosed neurodivergence can lead to anxiety and depression.

Denver's outdoor culture and apparent wellness orientation coexist with high rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use — a tension many locals recognize. The city's rapid growth and housing pressures have intensified stress for longtime residents and newcomers alike, and therapists frequently address adjustment, relationship strain, and burnout tied to the city's boom-era pace. Denver has a significant veteran population given proximity to several military installations, and therapists specializing in military trauma and PTSD are well represented. UCHealth and SCL Health provide major institutional anchors alongside Denver's large and well-established independent therapy community.
