I specialize in working with adults experiencing ADHD and inattention, including high-functioning individuals who feel overwhelmed by difficulty focusing, staying organized, or following through.

Zach Rotfus
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
ADHD encompasses a wide array of symptoms of presentations but broadly CBT is an effective tool for both finding behavioral steps to manage the daily hurdles of ADHD and to reframe our relationship to ourselves and repair the damage to self-esteem that ADHD often inflicts.

New Bedford is a southeastern Massachusetts city with one of the most distinctive identities of any American city of its size—Herman Melville's Moby-Dick opens here, and the city was once the richest per capita in America thanks to its whaling industry—now home to the highest-volume commercial fishing port in the United States by dollar value, with an economy still anchored by fishing, manufacturing, and logistics. The city has a large Cape Verdean-American community (one of the largest in the world outside Cape Verde), as well as significant Portuguese and Brazilian populations, and the intersection of these communities' mental health needs—including the specific experiences of Cape Verdean identity, immigration, and intergenerational stress—creates important considerations for culturally competent care. Southcoast Health provides behavioral health services, and community health organizations serve the diverse population. Common therapy concerns include fishing industry occupational trauma and risk, Cape Verdean and Portuguese-American identity and immigration stress, economic anxiety, substance use (New Bedford has been significantly affected by opioids), and the mental health challenges of a proud working-class city navigating industrial and demographic change.
