Although I have found a following among children and adults suffering from anxiety, depression, ADD, and ADHD, I can help anyone who wants to engage, wants to find a solution, and is willing to focus on reaching a positive and productive place in their lives.
We all deserve to live a happy, productive life -- to have a little fun every now and then. While life can't always be fun, with the right coping mechanisms and cognitive tools, we can address even the toughest times with positivity and confidence. It is my goal to teach my clients how to live their most positive lives, no matter what the circumstance or issue: marriage and family problems, anxiety, depression, ADD and ADHD (children and adults), blended family matters, sexual issues, PTSD, and military-family dynamics.

I do assessments for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), with or without hyperactivity, as well as personality assessments that cover most mental health and substance abuse conditions.
If you (or others you care about or are responsible for) are wondering why you behave the way you do, an assessment with psychological testing might provide the needed explanations. I do assessments and psychological evaluations aimed at determining if there is some dysfunction, and if so, suggest treatment plans to ameliorate the problems identified. PLEASE NOTE: After many years of providing comprehensive psychological services, including assessment and psychotherapy, I NO LONGER OFFER COUNSELING or PSYCHOTHERAPY. I just provide assessments, e.g., for ADHD or bipolar disorder, and evaluations.

When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
