Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
As a school psychologist for 8 years in my early career, I helped parents and teachers to work more effectively with children and adolescents. When I work directly with the ADHD individual I help them to calm their body, quiet their brain, increase their attention span, decrease distractibility and improve time and organizational management skills. The methods work well with adults whose ADHD is negatively impacting their relationships, work or home life.

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.

Lauren Whitlow
Psychologist, PsyD
Living with ADHD can affect much more than attention. It can impact organization, time management, emotional regulation, relationships, work or school performance, and self-confidence. Whether you've recently been diagnosed or have been managing symptoms for years, therapy can help you better understand how ADHD shows up in your daily life. Together, we'll identify your unique strengths, develop practical strategies to improve focus and follow through, create systems that work for your lifestyle, and address the frustration, overwhelm, or self criticism that often accompanies ADHD.
