Given my own experience with ADHD, anxiety, & depression, I truly understand many of the thoughts and feelings you may be having with these conditions and I know how much of a challenge it can be.
Hi, I’m Dave! I am passionate about helping adults with ADHD, anxiety, & depression learn to lead more fulfilling lives. I know first-hand how it feels to live with these conditions, which means I can help you learn realistic and attainable ways to improve your quality of life. I offer sincere empathy for your situation while also helping you challenge yourself to make improvements in your day-to-day living. While simply talking about your problems can help decrease the intensity of your anxiety and depression in many circumstances, what’s even more helpful is to learn about how your mind works and how to handle tough issues

I am a pediatric psychologist with 25 years experience in the field of mental health, having worked exclusively with children and teens for the past 20 years. I have experience in treating a wide range of problems, but I am especially skilled in working with those who are neurodivergent (ASD, ADHD) as well as children who struggle with anxiety, OCD, social delays and sensory issues. I will work with you and your child to help clarify goals for treatment. I believe that treatment should be individualized to the needs of both the client and the family, that uniqueness should be celebrated and that strengths should be built upon.

Twenty eight years of practice has taught me a great deal about people and how to help them.

I know that you can experience your life as successful. It is my absolute belief that you can. Where I come in is to help you regain your own healthy, change-producing abilities.

Life is a series of transitions - some peaks and some valleys. I find these valleys often are a result of internal conflict and external events or pressure. I believe that we all have an authentic self and much of the internal conflict comes from living inauthentically, which develops into maladaptive behaviors. There’s “the way it seems” and “the way it is,” and sometimes we all need someone to remind us of “the way it is.” That’s where I come in - my goals are to work TOGETHER with you to navigate a new path toward living your most authentic life and finding inner peace and confidence to be that person.

I enjoy working with individuals (ages 9 through mid-adulthood) experiencing a wide range of issues, including anxiety, ADHD, depression, mood disorders, adjustment difficulties, and interpersonal challenges.
Are you or your child experiencing frustration that affects work or academic performance, interferes with the ability to perform at one's level of potential, and/or adversely impacts well-being? Recognizing that you or your child may have learning difficulties or other challenges (e.g., focus, organization, memory) that hinders success can be very stressful and confusing. Yet, these experiences are not uncommon. Seeking help from a professional with expertise in comprehensive psychological assessment can ease worry and provide clarification and insight to ensure you receive appropriate guidance/recommendations.

I am a psychotherapist that treats individuals (adults and children) struggling with various challenges including anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, trauma, PTSD and Perinatal Mood Disorders.
Hi, I’m Erin. I help people navigate change with psychotherapy and modalities including CBT, mindfulness, and EMDR. Together we work through intense feelings and events that cause immense pain or stress. This could look like loss, relationships, family changes, becoming a parent, careers, chaos and transitions, or inability to identify any one thing. You might describe yourself as feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, and just “stuck,” not able to live life with purpose and happiness. Maybe you have tried everything to make changes and nothing seems to be working.

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.
