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.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Dysregulation in our lives is disruptive and limits us from our true potentials. Matters of planning, concentration, and focus can be improved through recognition of these challenges while employing a compassionate self-awareness that invites adjustments in our lives that is specific to our individual differences.

Rachel Burleson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
So many women are diagnosed with anxiety or depression, but is that the primary issue or are these symptoms of ADHD? Women with high-performing ADHD, often smart and hard working, learned from an early age that self-worth is tied up in perfection, production and people-pleasing. We learned to over function and many of us adopted anxiety as a lifestyle in order to act like our brains aren't scattered in a million different directions. We became used to that feeling of our nervous systems on overload, maybe numbing out with work, alcohol, social media or food. Let's acknowledge and celebrate your neurodivergent brain! Learn to manage and use your ADHD to your advantage, embracing your authenticity and developing the healthy habits and behaviors needed to create the connection, creativity and freedom you crave. I can help.
