ADHD
Psychworks Clinic
Psychologist, PHD
At PsychWorks Clinic, we understand that ADHD is more than difficulty focusing. It’s a different way of moving through the world. For children, teens, and adults alike, ADHD can impact attention, emotion regulation, relationships, and self-esteem. But it also often comes with creativity, energy, and unique problem-solving strengths that deserve to be recognized and supported.
Our approach combines evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing with practical strategies to help clients manage attention, build structure, and strengthen executive functioning. We also work closely with families, schools, and support networks to create environments that promote success and self-understanding rather than shame or frustration.
At PsychWorks, we see ADHD as a difference to be understood, managed, and embraced, not a flaw to be fixed.

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.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I have worked with numerous clients with ADHD, many of them newly diagnosed in adulthood. Living with ADHD—especially if you were diagnosed later in life—can feel like constantly trying to keep up with a world that isn't built for your brain. I specialize in helping adults navigate the unique challenges of ADHD, moving away from chronic overwhelm and self-blame toward self-compassion and clarity. My approach combines practical, action-oriented CBT and DBT skills to help you build effective systems for focus, organization, and emotional regulation. Simultaneously, we use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to heal the deep-seated feelings of inadequacy or "never doing enough" that often accompany neurodivergence. Together, we will shift the narrative from trying to fix who you are to understanding, honoring, and working with your brilliant, unique brain.

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.
