Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Living with ADHD is a unique challenge that often goes undiagnosed for years. While medication is frequently the primary treatment, therapy offers essential support that pills can’t provide.
While much of a counselor's work involves building structure and teaching coping skills, the therapeutic process goes much deeper. A therapist helps you navigate the emotional side of ADHD—like managing reactive grief, harnessing hyper-focus, and healing from a past where undiagnosed symptoms may have led to setbacks or paths you're now ready to change.

Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCPC
