ADHD
Dr. Cathy E. Pickett
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCMHC, LCA, CCTP, NCC
As a warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth therapist, I will work with clients experiencing ADHD by helping them understand how their symptoms affect their daily lives, relationships, work, and emotional well-being. Through evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I will help clients develop practical strategies for improving focus, organization, time management, emotional regulation, and self-confidence. We will work together to identify challenges, build on strengths, manage frustration and overwhelm, and develop healthy coping skills that support personal growth, improved relationships, and greater success in everyday life. My goal is to provide a supportive, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create positive change.

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.

ADHD
Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
ADHD isn't just about focus — it's often a system of parts in constant negotiation. The part chasing stimulation, the one paralyzed by overwhelm, the inner critic narrating all of it. I work with late-diagnosed adults and those who've been managing their whole lives to understand what's actually happening beneath the surface — and to lead from Self rather than being run by the loudest part in the room.

ADHD
Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
ADHD isn't a character flaw or a failure of effort, it's a different way of regulating attention, motivation, and impulse, and it comes with real strengths as well as real friction. For many adults and teens, the hardest part isn't the ADHD itself but years of feeling scattered, behind, or "not living up to potential." I help you understand how your particular brain works, build practical systems for focus and follow-through, and quiet the shame that so often rides alongside it. Drawing on performance psychology and work with the nervous system, we'll turn self-criticism into self-management so your energy goes toward what matters to you instead of toward fighting yourself.
