Alicia Polk
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, BC-TMH, CCTP-II
My experience with ADHD is not just academic, it's also personal. I have ADHD. ADHD, like autism, is only a "disorder" in the context of our culture. ADHD is a brain-based condition. That means ADHD brains are structured slightly differently and function slightly differently. People with ADHD appear "disordered" when measured by neurotypical standards. I view my role as helping you to understand how your brain works (as opposed to a neurotypical brain) and to help you harness your ADHD strengths. I will help you develop strategies for addressing challenges that your ADHD creates in your life.

Melanie Bettes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, Coach
ADHD. While it's uniquely presented in everyone, there are still commonalities. The challenge is usually to figure out how to work with YOUR presentation, and not apply a universal approach to each person. It's as unique as you are, and I strive to approach your challenges the same way. I myself have ADHD. I learn through education and study, as well as from people in my circle who have ADHD....and from YOU! I love when we find an approach or tips that work for YOU. When working with me, we find what works for YOU.

If you are having problems with ADD or ADHD, I can help provide strategies for managing symptoms, improving organization skills, and setting goals. I can also help address the emotional challenges related to ADD/ADHD that can effect you and others close to you. We can use some cognitive behavioral strategies to find better ways of coping and address any negative thought patterns that you may have.
