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.

Shauna Pollard
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you have always excelled in your career, it’s possible that many people don’t see the long hours that you put in and recognize how late you stay at work to get things done. Yes, you get it all done and usually deliver high quality work, but it comes at a cost. Often, there is anxiety about maintaining a certain level of success. You may feel like you pulled off something amazing, but doubt your ability to do it again, or to sustain what you’ve created.
In fact, you may be great at coming up with the big picture ideas and find it hard to follow through with the important details. It’s likely that you are excited by so many things that it’s hard to focus on just one thing. You may also find that because so many things come easily to you, that it is so frustrating when you come across a challenge that feels different from the rest.

Being successful and having ADHD can mean that others may not even recognize that you have ADHD because you have naturally found workarounds for your areas of weakness. This may allow you to excel at school or in your career, but challenges with being organized, handling intense emotions, and managing your time wisely will catch up eventually.
Hitting that wall can show up as burnout, challenges in relationships, financial issues, or a loss of confidence in yourself.
The skills that got you to where you are, may not be enough to get you to the next level.
You are not alone and therapy can help. You don’t need to be fixed, you just need some additional support so that you can improve your functioning across the board. Through our work together, I can help you
1. Learn how to work with the brain that you have
2. Improve how you manage your emotions so that they don’t manage you
3. Increase your confidence in yourself and stop being so hard on yourself

Our practice is dedicated towards helping people with ADHD and related challenge areas. First, we provide ADHD testing and evaluations for adults and teenagers who are seeking to determine whether they have this diagnosis. The testing process involves three parts: completing a series of behavioral rating scales, completing online attention and neuropsychological screening tests, and a Zoom diagnostic interview. At the end of the evaluation, we will provide you with a detailed assessment report to assist you and other professionals involved in your care. Second, we provide solutions-oriented online psychotherapy. This approach sharpens your organization and productivity skills, and provides you with support for the challenging emotions and thoughts that often accompany ADHD.
