Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
ADHD is not a character flaw, it is a different nervous system that often comes with years of criticism, missed support, and deep shame about “not getting it together.” In therapy, I draw from my doctoral research on ADHD, shame, and trauma to help you understand how your brain actually works, make sense of your story through a more compassionate lens, and interrupt the shame cycles that keep you stuck. Together, we build practical supports for executive functioning while also tending to the emotional impact of late diagnosis, past invalidation, and the pressure to perform like everyone else.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
Living a lifetime with ADHD, especially when not diagnosed until adulthood, wreaks havoc on our nervous system, self-worth and relationships. Executive dysfunction, emotional dysregulation and impulsivity can cause us to create berating voices in our minds to get us to function or to have severe consequences in school, jobs and relationships. I offer a new way to manage your ADHD characteristics that should have been offered all along. In therapy, you will get to know your strengths and limitations and use them to reach your goals as well as accommodate yourself. You will learn to use self-support as a motivator instead of self-sabotage or deprecation.

Stacy Lepley
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CBC
Navigating a world that wasn't built for your brain can feel like a constant, exhausting battle with overwhelm and executive burnout. I look at ADHD through a compassionate, non-judgmental lens, helping you move away from shame and toward radical self-acceptance. Together, we will map out how your unique nervous system processes information and use visual, practical tools to build sustainable routines that work with your brain—not against it—while fully honoring your personal strengths.
