David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my treatment for ADHD, I help you develop practical strategies to navigate executive function challenges like time management, organization, and procrastination. I utilize evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reframe negative self-talk while building a personalized toolkit of skills for task-breaking and environmental modification. When addressing anxiety and fears, I guide you through identifying catastrophic thought patterns and using practical grounding techniques to manage the physical distress of worry. Through safe, gradual exposure to your triggers, I work with you to break the cycle of avoidance and regain your confidence.

ADHD
Mary W. Prentiss
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I work with children and families navigating ADHD-related challenges such as difficulty with attention, impulsivity, emotional regulation, frustration tolerance, organization, transitions, and behavior at home or school. I take a strengths-based, compassionate approach that helps children understand how their brains work without making ADHD feel like something is “wrong” with them.
Therapy may include practical coping strategies, emotional regulation skills, behavior supports, parent coaching, and developmentally appropriate activities to help children build confidence and feel more successful. I also help parents better understand ADHD and learn strategies for responding to challenging behaviors while strengthening their connection with their child.
My goal is to help children recognize their strengths, develop skills that work for their individual needs, and feel capable rather than defined by their diagnosis.

ADHD
Joshua Redding
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
The ability to direct and sustain our attention is challenging for many, but when does it get to a point where something needs to be treated? How do we know it's a clinical issue, not just boredom, laziness, or something else? ADHD as a diagnosis is complicated and Joshua has 15 years of experience working with folks with ADHD symptoms because these symptoms require more than just simple solutions or just medication. Consider booking a free 30-minute consult to explore more.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
I work on returning you to a state of internal peace so you can let go of external noise and build up your arsenal of tools to empower you to regain clarity, focus and control. We do this with hypnotherapy, motivational programming, regression, breathwork, visualizing, and more so you can focus on one thing at a time, complete tasks, and stop procrastinating. I also provide those with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder tools you can use on your own to exercise impulse control; included in this are tapping that works with your body's meridiens and binaural synchronization of the brain hemispheres, along with grounding techniques. Ultimately, we reset your nerous system and return you to a feeling of safety.

Mirjana Ivanisevic, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
I provide comprehensive diagnostic evaluations for those interested in learning if the symptoms they are experiencing is due to the ADHD. If you already have a diagnosis, I also offer cognitive training (i.e., executive function training, cognitive-skill building) as well as therapy services to learn coping strategies to compensate for areas that are difficult in your everyday life.

ADHD
Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults navigating ADHD, particularly professionals and scientists who were diagnosed later in life, often after years of compensating well enough that no one, including themselves, recognized what was happening. Together we work on executive functioning strategies, self-advocacy at work, and untangling ADHD traits from the self-criticism that tends to build up around them over years of masking. I'm a bilingual, Beck Institute-trained clinical psychologist, and many of my ADHD clients are also navigating cultural identity, immigration, or first-generation professional pressures alongside their diagnosis. Sessions are structured and goal-oriented, so you always know what we're working toward and why.
