David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my treatment for ADHD, I help you develop practical strategies to navigate executive function challenges like time management, organization, and procrastination. I utilize evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reframe negative self-talk while building a personalized toolkit of skills for task-breaking and environmental modification. When addressing anxiety and fears, I guide you through identifying catastrophic thought patterns and using practical grounding techniques to manage the physical distress of worry. Through safe, gradual exposure to your triggers, I work with you to break the cycle of avoidance and regain your confidence.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I offer psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses for ADHD, and I specialize in supporting individuals with ADHD. My work focuses on helping people manage symptoms like inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. I use evidence-based therapies, such as CBT, organizational skills training, and mindfulness techniques, to help individuals improve focus, manage time effectively, and enhance self-regulation. I collaborate with clients to develop strategies for daily life, academic success, and emotional well-being, all while fostering a deeper understanding of ADHD and its impact on their lives. Referrals for medication management, if desired, are made to local prescribing providers.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have worked with many individuals who struggle with symptoms associated with ADHD and/or learning differences in outpatient and school settings. While I no longer complete psychological evaluations, I have much experience in being able to interpret evaluations that have already been completed to assist with identifying strengths and weaknesses so you can learn the best learning style and develop strategies to help you to sustain attention and complete work. Together with your school and/or physicians, we can work on identifying strategies to help you to be successful at work and/or school.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Some studies suggest that twice as many marriages touched by ADHD end in divorce. You might be surprised by that- the common understanding of ADHD is that it’s mainly diagnosed in energetic grade school boys. In fact, many very intelligent adults aren’t diagnosed because their resourcefulness has helped them learn how to cope, but they are barely hanging on by a thread. And this precariousness shows up most clearly in their marriage. Here are some signs your partner might have ADHD (and why you might feel perpetually annoyed at them):
They leave their stuff everywhere.
They become so engrossed in something that they lose track of time, sometimes for hours, and don’t hear you when you call their name.
They forget to call.
You feel like when you are out of their sight you are out of their mind completely.
It seems like they have trouble attending to you at all when they’re attending to their own needs.
They forget where their keys are.
They have trouble with ‘adulting’ (showering regularly, making dinner, doing dishes, etc.)
You often feel more like their parent than their partner.
They’re sensitive to criticism that these behaviors upset you.
The list goes on and on. Couples touched by ADHD often need an assessment, couples counseling and sometimes individual therapy. You can get through this together- know you are not alone in this struggle and we can help you turn around these trends.
