Ashley Paulson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LIMHP, CHt
I offer help with symptoms of ADHD especially regarding overthinking/racing thoughts, issues with sleep, overwhelm/irritability, restlessness/sense of urgency, and creating pause instead of acting impulsively. I also help those struggling with ADHD better understand themselves in general, their symptoms, and the impact to their self-esteem or sensitivity around rejection.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life with ADHD can feel like running a marathon in your mind while everyone else seems to be walking. The constant mental noise, forgotten details, missed deadlines, and emotional rollercoaster can leave you frustrated, ashamed, and worn out. Relationships get tense, confidence fades, and faith can start to feel distant under the weight of distraction and self-criticism.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that ADHD is not a lack of effort—it’s a nervous system that works differently. Our Christian counselors help you understand how your brain, body, and spirit function together so you can build focus, follow-through, and peace from the inside out.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We combine evidence-based strategies (CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and somatic regulation) with faith-centered coaching to help you:
• Reduce overwhelm and racing thoughts
• Strengthen organization and time management habits that fit your wiring
• Improve emotional regulation and impulse control
• Rebuild confidence and self-trust after years of frustration
• Restore connection in your relationships and your walk with God
You’ll learn to calm your nervous system, recognize patterns early, and create daily rhythms that support both productivity and peace.
What to expect: practical tools, compassionate accountability, and a judgment-free space where grace meets growth.
If you’re tired of trying harder and ready to work smarter with your mind instead of against it, we’re here to help you find clarity, confidence, and calm again—one focused step at a time.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
While I am not a therapist, I deal with emotions and the realities they create everyday. The number one obstacle I encounter with clients with ADHD is shame. Coaching can be a powerful space to admit, examine, and expel that immobilizing emotion. The framework of life coaching is helpful for almost everyone. AND I have a toolkit in my back pocket proven effective and accessible in revealing the superpowers in ADHD and cultivating ease around the obstacles. This toolkit includes methods, tools, and experiments to improve time management, focus, interpersonal relationships, motivation, and life balance, as well as so much more. I am NOT offering therapy; our work together will not focus on the failings of the past or finding a mental diagnosis because I believe you are whole, resourceful and creative as you are, right now. Our work will be to find the tools that work for you to get the life you want.
