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.

ADHD
Psychworks Clinic
Psychologist, PHD
At PsychWorks Clinic, we understand that ADHD is more than difficulty focusing. It’s a different way of moving through the world. For children, teens, and adults alike, ADHD can impact attention, emotion regulation, relationships, and self-esteem. But it also often comes with creativity, energy, and unique problem-solving strengths that deserve to be recognized and supported.
Our approach combines evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing with practical strategies to help clients manage attention, build structure, and strengthen executive functioning. We also work closely with families, schools, and support networks to create environments that promote success and self-understanding rather than shame or frustration.
At PsychWorks, we see ADHD as a difference to be understood, managed, and embraced, not a flaw to be fixed.

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.
