Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder ADHD

  • What is ADHD?

    Do you procrastinate?

    Do you hyperfocus on tasks you enjoy but have difficulty staying focused on tasks that you do not like?

    Do you misplace things often?

    Do you have difficulty staying organized and feel like your life is messy?

    Do you find yourself interrupting people often?

    You could have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

  • Limited ADHD Screenings (Adults)

    Our team includes psychologists specializing in ADHD screenings for adults. These screenings entail collecting your history and identifying areas of difficulty, discussing the impact of symptoms on your life, and offering personalized recommendations. Medical doctors who prescribe medication for ADHD often require a diagnosis from a mental health professional. Upon request, we furnish written documentation to your referring doctor. Additionally, we can connect you with a therapist who specializes in ADHD to assist in symptom management.

  • ADHD in Women

    ADHD in women is often missed or misdiagnosed. Women with ADHD often have difficulty with attention and may be impulsive, but their symptoms go unnoticed because they do not have the hyperactivity component of ADHD. If you struggle with many of the challanges on the list below, we can help.

  • Therapy for ADHD

    Therapy can be very effective in teaching you or your child to manage symptoms of ADHD. Our psychologists and counselors teach you the skills needed to improve concentration, develop healthier emotional regulation, and how to get along better with others. Our therapists will help you (or you and your child) discover how ADHD is impacting your life. They will then help you focus on developing skills to manage your difficulties with attention, impulse control, and hyperactivity. They are also great at helping you learn ways to calm your mind and body so you can use the new skills you are developing. We provide therapy for adults and children.
