Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
ADHD looks different person to person, in my practice I collaborate with my clients to find the best approach that fits their needs. I have found success in providing context to certain behaviors and finding sustainable paths in managing your ADHD. Sometimes this means hands on skills to practice, as well as lifestyle shifts that can make aspects of focus and concentration easier to attain.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many people with ADHD have received and internalized the message that they are lazy or not living up to their potential; it is common for individuals with ADHD to be hard on themselves in an attempt to increase productivity and reliability. Yet, each failure reinforces the message that they are inadequate. Moreover, the nature of ADHD often makes it difficult to organize and soothe difficult thoughts and emotions, leaving one vulnerable to anxiety and depression.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
I have over 30 years' experience assessing and helping treat attention issues. First, we must determine if it is really ADD, or ADD with another issue, or simply another problem that interferes with attention and focus. Then, we design a set of interventions to address the actual underlying problem(s). Unfortunately, I often seen kids and teens who have been medicated for ADD but who don't actually have it. I'm not against medication, just against it if the patient doesn't actually have ADD. One of my articles: https://www.atlantapsych.com/article/addressingattention

Lauren Rance
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist (PsyD, LP)
I take a strengths-based approach and oftentimes reflect how some symptoms of ADHD can serve individuals (i.e., creativity, hyperfocus on tasks you like). We also explore how ADHD symptoms are getting in the way, whether it is motivation difficulties, trouble getting started on tasks, difficulty creating/following a routine or schedule, frequent distraction, communication difficulties, or difficulties managing strong emotions. I then offer executive skills coaching to help build skills in these areas.
