Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Your ADHD is unique to you. I'm here to support you in learning how your brain works so you can work with it, not against it, in order to mitigate some of the personal and relational challenges that often come with an ADHD diagnosis. I specialize in working with folks with a late diagnosis and working with couples around the adjustments and repair that often come with that.

Dr Calvin Young
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCPC
Because of the ubiquity of ADHD and related issues it is vry important that clinicians know and evaluate patients for ADHD. Many patients come to care not knowing that their behaviors and difficulties are due to ADHD, or worse they have been diagnosed and treated for the disorder when they do not have it, so I am extensive and multi-faceted in my assessment of ADHD

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In my practice, I help patients with ADHD by utilizing a comprehensive and personalized approach that addresses their unique needs and challenges. I start with thorough assessments to accurately diagnose ADHD and provide education to help patients and their families understand the condition. Behavioral interventions and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are employed to develop effective coping strategies, improve time management, and address negative thought patterns. Mindfulness practices are taught to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation. I also offer coaching to build specific skills, create structured routines, and explore medication options in collaboration with medical professionals. Family involvement is encouraged to create a supportive environment, and a strength-based approach is used to build confidence and motivation. Ongoing support and follow-up ensure continuous progress and adjustment of therapeutic strategies. This comprehensive approach aims to empower patients with ADHD to manage their symptoms effectively, enhance their strengths, and lead fulfilling lives.

Ashley Pinto
Therapist, LCPC, CCTP
Research shows that ADHD often presents very differently in women and girls. Unlike the young boys who couldn't sit still and attracted the attention of their classroom teachers, many women are discovering their neurodivergence much later in life. For many women, this journey begins during through the process of one of their children being diagnosed with ADHD. It's likely that you've spent much of your life feeling misunderstood, leading to issues like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, frustration, and feelings of failure. You have brilliant ideas and caring intentions, but struggle with follow-through and are hard on yourself for it. Daily overwhelm can be a challenge, as tasks that seem easier for others often feel more difficult. Yet, frequently women with ADHD overlook or discredit how some challenges that are hard for others come more naturally to them. ADHD symptoms can become more pronounced after having children, when the adaptive strategies we've come to rely on now seem less effective. This is especially true concerning sensory overstimulation. You don’t have to live this way anymore! Are you ready to truly know and appreciate yourself while living with more love and joy? Consider scheduling an appointment for support and learning a different way of living.
I no longer offer weekly insurance-based 53 minute sessions. After a decade of seeing clients under this model, I've shifted my practice to private pay customized services that better meet the needs of my niche clients. My customized Therapy Intensives are specially designed to offer you a more a more spacious, efficient, and streamlined for a deeper and more transformative experience. They are intended to be short-term and can serve as an adjunct to ongoing therapy with your already established therapist, such as in the case that you really enjoy the work you are doing with them but they do not specialize in an area that I do. I also offer monthly extended sessions (90 minutes to 2 hours) for those looking for a hybrid option, that allows for deeper work as well as ongoing support. Please visit my website for more details on how we can work together.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
I support individuals with ADHD in moving beyond shame and into self-understanding. Rather than viewing ADHD as a deficit, I help you explore how your brain uniquely works—alongside the body’s natural rhythms. Together, we build gentle structures, emotional regulation tools, and self-compassion practices that honor your energy, creativity, and struggles with focus or impulsivity.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
Working with adults with ADHD is a particular passion for Dr. Sypher and his team. We find that many folks living with ADHD have been told that medication is the only pathway for treatment, a belief that can be reinforced by therapy that does not target ADHD symptoms directly. Furthermore, many folks with ADHD carry lifelong unhelpful beliefs about themselves and their ability to effectively manage life and achieve their full potential. We use an evidence-based cognitive-behavioral approach for treating ADHD where we help clients learn to better plan, organize, problem-solve, challenge unhelpful thinking, and reduce procrastination. We have found that as folks become more skillful with executive functioning strategies, they often see reductions in stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms and increases in self-esteem and self-efficacy.
