Rachel W. Bush, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist, Trauma Informed Yoga Instructor with 500 Hour Training, International bestselling author on Self-love and Creativity
It is not uncommon to help diagnose adults with ADD later in their lives and learn about their struggles with executive functioning, procrastination issues, low frustration tolerance, low self-esteem etc. I have found it incredibly gratifying to help individuals with pharmacotherapy, individual therapy and couple therapy. In my work with teenagers it is rewarding to get students the additional accommodations that they need to succeed in school.

In treating ADHD, I use a combination of behavioral interventions, psychoeducation, and referrals for medication management.

Hope I. Hills, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist in NC, Authorized PsyPact Practitioner in 40 states
I found out I was ADHD at 50. It was a great realization and I've been excited to help so many adults get assessed and work through the grief as well as joy that this diagnosis gives them. Recognizing our diagnosis is so useful for individual and relationship therapy. This knowledge is freeing and also gives us the capacity to answer questions about ourselves that have always been confusing.

Maria Maddalo
Psychologist, Psy.D., BCBA
I specialize in working with children/adolescents with ADHD as it relates to the school and home settings. ADHD causes attention and concentration difficulties in the school setting. It also creates difficulties with parent and peer relationships, and problematic behaviors often manifest as a result. I work with children/adolescents and families to help understand the diagnosis, to create a positive plan for change, and to provide support. I specialize in working collaboratively with parents and teachers to create positive behavioral supports and training on how to improve executive function skills for ADHD. Because children/adolescents with ADHD have executive function difficulties, they need additional help from parents, teachers, and therapists who will provide positive support and encouragement, and NOT punishment.

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.
