Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Dysregulation in our lives is disruptive and limits us from our true potentials. Matters of planning, concentration, and focus can be improved through recognition of these challenges while employing a compassionate self-awareness that invites adjustments in our lives that is specific to our individual differences.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence are not indications that something is wrong, but reflect differences in how the brain processes and responds to the world. These differences can bring both strengths and challenges in areas like focus, organization, and emotional regulation. Together, we explore your patterns, reduce self-criticism, and develop approaches that support how you naturally think and function.

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

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.

Your ADHD is unique to you. I'm here to support you in learning how your brain works so you can work with it, not against it, in order to mitigate some of the personal and relational challenges that often come with an ADHD diagnosis. I specialize in working with folks with a late diagnosis and working with couples around the adjustments and repair that often come with that.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
I support individuals with ADHD in moving beyond shame and into self-understanding. Rather than viewing ADHD as a deficit, I help you explore how your brain uniquely works—alongside the body’s natural rhythms. Together, we build gentle structures, emotional regulation tools, and self-compassion practices that honor your energy, creativity, and struggles with focus or impulsivity.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
Working with adults with ADHD is a particular passion for Dr. Sypher and his team. We find that many folks living with ADHD have been told that medication is the only pathway for treatment, a belief that can be reinforced by therapy that does not target ADHD symptoms directly. Furthermore, many folks with ADHD carry lifelong unhelpful beliefs about themselves and their ability to effectively manage life and achieve their full potential. We use an evidence-based cognitive-behavioral approach for treating ADHD where we help clients learn to better plan, organize, problem-solve, challenge unhelpful thinking, and reduce procrastination. We have found that as folks become more skillful with executive functioning strategies, they often see reductions in stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms and increases in self-esteem and self-efficacy.
