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.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

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.
