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.

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

Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I support adolescents and adults with ADHD in understanding how their brains work rather than trying to “fix” them. I support clients in having better management of their ADHD symptoms. I have ADHD myself, so I have a big toolset to offer clients. Sessions focus on organization, emotional regulation, self-compassion, and practical strategies that fit real life, not rigid systems that don’t last.
