Our parent organization runs the Art of Friendship Social Skills Program and Camp Pegasus.

In fact, as work and life demands are greater and faster-paced, sometimes adults discover that they have ADHD and executive functioning challenges when they have trouble staying organized and performing at home, university, and work. Our therapists can be a great resource for individuals with executive functioning and ADHD challenges. Feel free to reach out and ask how we can help!
I have specialized training in working with individuals with ADHD and experience working with couples in which one or both partners have ADHD. Co-authored a book on addressing homework problems in children with ADHD.
I have both evaluated and worked with many clients to help them understand the symptoms of A-D/HD and the impact as well as the strengths that their unique brain brings to their life experience. A-D/HD is not one-size fits all or a constellation of symptoms, rather it becomes part of the lens through which clients experience school, education, self, family, work, and relationships.
ADHD is complicated with addictive disorders and many therapists are reluctant to work with individuals taking medication for ADHD. We have several relationships with psychiatrists who treat ADHD especially in individuals also abusing drugs and alcohol.
Trained clinicians address and create treatment plans tailored to work with individuals struggling with ADHD. We work with you, your family, school, and medical professional to create a whole person approach to treat ADHD.
Clients can expect a more cognitive behavioral informed approach that may be in addition to medication that is prescribed elsewhere. Neuroatypical clients will be validated and either strengthened current skills or new skills will be added. ADHD can create issues within a relationship and working with such clients will include validation and understanding work with the partner.
I specialize in working with adults and teens (16+) in recovery from mental health conditions and life stressors. Some of these include anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use disorders, eating disorders, loss, grief, life transitions, women's and LGBTQIA+ health issues and trauma.
