Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many people with ADHD have received and internalized the message that they are lazy or not living up to their potential; it is common for individuals with ADHD to be hard on themselves in an attempt to increase productivity and reliability. Yet, each failure reinforces the message that they are inadequate. Moreover, the nature of ADHD often makes it difficult to organize and soothe difficult thoughts and emotions, leaving one vulnerable to anxiety and depression.

Anita Faircloth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
ADHD treatment isn't just about knowing what to do. It's about understanding what gets in the way of being able to do it. Together, we'll explore how ADHD is impacting your daily life, identify the barriers that get in the way of doing what you want and need to do, and develop and practice strategies to address them. Depending on your individual needs , we may explore how thoughts, emotions, nervous system activation, and executive functioning interact and contribute to the challenges you are experiencing. We may also focus on the practical aspects of ADHD, such organization, forgetfulness, time management, getting started on tasks, or managing intense feelings and overwhelm. The specific challenges-and what is getting in the way of addressing them-can vary from person to person. Please reach out for a free consultation to talk about how I may be able to help.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
ADHD isn’t about laziness or lack of motivation—it’s about how your brain is wired. I specialize in helping individuals with ADHD better understand their patterns, manage overwhelm, and build systems that actually work for their life. Together, we focus on practical strategies for improving focus, organization, emotional regulation, and follow-through, while also addressing the frustration and self-criticism that often come with ADHD. My goal is to help you work with your brain, not against it, so you can feel more confident, capable, and in control.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
ADHD is often misunderstood—especially in adults, and especially in people who have spent years masking, overcompensating, or being mislabeled. Many of our clients come in feeling burnt out, scattered, or frustrated, not because they’re “failing,” but because they’ve been trying to function in systems that weren’t built for how their brains work. At Nour Counseling, we take ADHD seriously—and we look at the full picture, including how culture, expectations, and identity shape the way ADHD shows up and gets interpreted.
We offer comprehensive ADHD assessments that go beyond a checklist. Our evaluations include a detailed report with clear findings and individualized recommendations, including accommodations when appropriate. In therapy, we work actively with you to understand your specific patterns—executive functioning, time agnosia, emotional regulation, task initiation—and build strategies that actually fit your life. This might look like restructuring systems, unlearning internalized narratives, setting realistic expectations, and creating supports that reduce overwhelm. Our goal isn’t to force you into someone else’s mold—it’s to help you understand how your brain works and move through the world with more clarity, support, and self-trust.

Gail Eaves
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, LPC
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) involves a persistent pattern of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. ADHD does not occur exclusively during childhood; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms can transfer into adulthood. Children with symptoms of ADHD can have difficulty in multiple domains of their lives. For example, the child may be challenged getting good grades at school by not being able to maintain focus in a classroom setting. At home, the child with ADHD symptoms may experience balancing organizational skills.
