ADHD can feel like you drew the short straw in life. You might struggle with the "basic" things and the inability to follow through on things can be so embarrassing and shameful. Through introduction of systems, understanding of the way your brain works, we can help to find new and effective management tools.

Paul Losoff
Psychologist, PsyD
I believe ADHD is a legitimate neuropsychological condition that often requires more than willpower to manage. It can also be a source of unique strengths; some may call it a superpower. My approach focuses on empowering individuals with ADHD through skill-building, strategy development, and confidence-boosting techniques, helping them reach their full potential.

Maria Maddalo
Psychologist, Psy.D., BCBA
I specialize in working with children/adolescents with ADHD as it relates to the school and home settings. ADHD causes attention and concentration difficulties in the school setting. It also creates difficulties with parent and peer relationships, and problematic behaviors often manifest as a result. I work with children/adolescents and families to help understand the diagnosis, to create a positive plan for change, and to provide support. I specialize in working collaboratively with parents and teachers to create positive behavioral supports and training on how to improve executive function skills for ADHD. Because children/adolescents with ADHD have executive function difficulties, they need additional help from parents, teachers, and therapists who will provide positive support and encouragement, and NOT punishment.
