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.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
I have over 30 years' experience assessing and helping treat attention issues. First, we must determine if it is really ADD, or ADD with another issue, or simply another problem that interferes with attention and focus. Then, we design a set of interventions to address the actual underlying problem(s). Unfortunately, I often seen kids and teens who have been medicated for ADD but who don't actually have it. I'm not against medication, just against it if the patient doesn't actually have ADD. One of my articles: https://www.atlantapsych.com/article/addressingattention

Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
ADHD can affect every aspect of life, from academics and work, to relationship with family and friends, to your own experience of emotions. My perspective is grounded in an awareness of the interplay of culture and context in the experience of ADHD. I see clients for whom ADHD is their primary reason for coming to therapy, as well as those who are coming in for other reasons but want to see someone who can recognize how ADHD shapes their experiences. In addition to therapy, I offer diagnostic assessments for ADHD as well as executive functioning coaching, all of which can be integrated or stand-alone services.
