Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
If your brain feels like it’s running ten tabs at once—and none of them are loading—you might be in the right place. I specialize in working with adults with ADHD, whether you’ve been recently diagnosed, wondering if you might have it, or just tired of feeling stuck, scattered, behind, or overwhelmed by everyday tasks. Shame, self-doubt, and years of trying to "just push through" are common—but they don’t have to be the end of the story.
At The Momentum Practice, I offer both comprehensive ADHD assessments and therapy designed to support neurodivergent brains with warmth, clarity, and practical tools. I believe in creating spaces where you don’t have to explain your existence—just your goals. A space where you can show up exactly as you are, take a deep breath, and exhale. With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move from chaos to clarity, and from self-criticism to self-understanding. Therapy with me is collaborative, affirming, and focused on progress—not perfection. Whether you’re navigating career stress, burnout, executive functioning challenges, or the emotional weight of masking and self-doubt, we’ll work together to create meaningful momentum. I also speak fluent overthinking, so no need to translate. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
Common experiences are encountered by both children and adults. ADD and ADHD Symptoms include:
• Restlessness, fidgeting, squirming, general difficulty in staying seated.
• Easily distracted by other activities or the environment.
• Talks excessively
• Blurts out answers out of turn or before the question is completely stated.
• Has difficulty with organization
• Struggles with staying on task.
• Waiting is a chore.
• Social awkwardness and poor social skills can lead to alienation from peers.
ADD/ADHD has been misdiagnosed, overlooked or denied. A variety of counseling can be tried, often with successful outcomes.
At times medication is necessary. Some children are medicated too soon even before counseling is given adequate time. ADHD medication is not always necessary however some children are in need and once their system metabolizes their lives can dramatically change. Adult ADD and adult ADHD are treatable and growth and change are possible - it's never too late.
So counseling is a must and medication may be an option. Often both are the best course of action to provide the individual optimal care.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
ADHD looks different person to person, in my practice I collaborate with my clients to find the best approach that fits their needs. I have found success in providing context to certain behaviors and finding sustainable paths in managing your ADHD. Sometimes this means hands on skills to practice, as well as lifestyle shifts that can make aspects of focus and concentration easier to attain.

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.

With extensive experience evaluating ADHD in both children and adults, I deliver detailed reports that not only confirm or rule out ADHD but also identify your unique strengths and provide practical strategies for managing symptoms, securing academic or workplace accommodations, and optimizing your performance in all areas of life.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and the Hamburg area. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
