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.
