Life can be chaotic and weird, and a huge part of therapy is learning to find balance, and what balance is is entirely up to you. Maybe you're looking for support as you adjust to the changes of our current world, newfound independence as you enter into your 20s and beyond, struggling with anxiety or depression, ADHD, your relationship with food and body, or just want someone to talk through things with. My hope is that together, we can collaborate to help you in your journey through life and into adulthood.

TEENS are my favorite people! The path from Teen to Young Adult can be rocky and it can feel especially scary when your teens’ mental health is impacted. Teens are uniquely faced with figuring out who they are, who they will become, plus peer dynamics all at the same time. If you're neurodivergent (ADHD, autistic, bipolar, learning disorder) then you are also navigating a neurotypical word, which can be an uphill battle. Often motivation feels just out of reach no matter how much you want change to happen.

ADHD Therapists

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.
