TriWellness
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, LCSW, LPC, BCN, CIT, CYYT, QEEG-C, AAT-I
Our treatment integrates evidence-based therapy with neurofeedback, a non-invasive, research-supported intervention that helps train the brain toward healthier patterns of regulation and focus. Neurofeedback works by providing real-time feedback on brain activity, allowing the brain to strengthen pathways associated with sustained attention, impulse control, and emotional balance.
In therapy, we focus on practical strategies for organization, time management, emotional regulation, and self-esteem, while also addressing the frustration, shame, or anxiety that often accompany ADHD. For children and teens, we collaborate closely with parents to build supportive structures at home and school. For adults, we help translate insight into realistic systems that support work, relationships, and daily responsibilities.
Our goal is not to “fix” ADHD, but to help each individual better understand their brain, harness their strengths, and develop tools that promote confidence, resilience, and long-term success.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Your brain works differently, and you've spent your whole life trying to fit into systems that weren't built for you. The missed deadlines, the half-finished projects, the conversations where you realize you stopped listening three sentences ago. It's exhausting, and the frustration compounds when people assume you're lazy or don't care. We help adults with ADHD understand how their brain actually works, develop strategies that fit their wiring instead of fighting against it, and address the anxiety, shame, and relationship strain that often come along for the ride.

Best Therapies, Inc.

Not everyone’s brain works the same way. Some folks have a bigger emotional reaction to a fight and a slower return to baseline. Some people struggle with focus and concentration. Some people find they can be hyperfocused on a task to the detriment of their job, or might feel very overwhelmed in a crowd. For a lot of our patients, being diagnosed with is the first difficult but necessary step to change, whether it’s finding out you have ADHD, PTSD, a personality disorder or if you’re on the Autism spectrum. Learning about how your brain works can help you become more adaptive, so that you can better apply your strengths and avoid pitfalls. Our therapists love working with brains of all varieties, including yours.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
ADHD is often diagnosed in childhood, but can impact many adults. Symptoms often include inattention, impulsivity, and difficulty initiating tasks or sustaining focus. Adults may notice these symptoms disrupting daily responsibilities, work tasks, and interpersonal relationships. I utilized evidence-based practices to help adults strengthen executive functioning skills, which are the cognitive processes involved in planning tasks, sustaining attention, recalling details, and balancing various tasks.

Eric Tivers (ADHD reWired)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
ADHD has been at the center of both my personal and professional life. I was diagnosed at 19, and that moment changed everything — finally having language for how my brain worked felt like turning on a light I didn’t know was off. It also set me on the path to helping others with ADHD find clarity, structure, and self-acceptance.
When I first started my private practice in 2007, my focus was on working with both kids and adults with ADHD and autism. Over time, though — especially around 2014, when I launched ADHD reWired — I began focusing almost exclusively on adults with ADHD. My approach combines therapy, coaching, and accountability to help people move from self-blame and shame to self-understanding.
I take a neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed approach that centers compassion, emotional regulation, and practical strategies for real life. Through both individual therapy and my coaching programs, I’ve helped over 1,200 adults with ADHD learn how to plan, prioritize, and follow through — not by forcing themselves into someone else’s system, but by building one that fits their brain and their life.
