ADHD & Executive Function Support

Practical help with focus, follow-through and the frustration that comes with them.

You may have spent years feeling intelligent but inconsistent, knowing you're capable but not always able to follow through.

ADHD affects more than attention. It influences how you organize, prioritize, regulate emotions, manage time, follow through on tasks, and move through daily life.

Maybe you can hyperfocus for hours on one thing while completely losing track of time. Maybe you feel overwhelmed by routines, procrastination, or emotional intensity. Maybe you've been told you "have so much potential if only you would apply yourself."

ADHD is not a character flaw or a lack of discipline. We'll figure out where things break down for you, whether that's starting, switching, remembering or finishing, and build systems around how you actually work instead of how a planner assumes you should.

"Procrastination is not always a motivation problem."

Our work is practical and neurodivergent-affirming. We'll use CBT-based tools for planning, starting tasks and following through, and look at the harsh self-talk that often builds up after years of feeling behind. Motivational interviewing helps when you know what you want to change but can't get yourself to start.

Do I need an ADHD diagnosis to work with you?

No. You don’t need a formal ADHD diagnosis to talk about attention, task initiation, time management, organization, emotional regulation or other executive-functioning difficulties in therapy. We can begin with the problems you are actually experiencing.

Do you diagnose ADHD?

I provide counseling rather than formal ADHD evaluations. If you decide that a formal assessment would be useful, you can pursue testing with an appropriately qualified evaluator.

Can therapy help with executive functioning?

Yes. Executive functioning includes skills such as starting tasks, organizing information, estimating time, shifting attention, remembering intentions and following through. Therapy can help identify where the process is breaking down and develop strategies around the actual barrier rather than simply telling you to become more organized.

Can ADHD cause procrastination even when I really want to do something?

Yes. Wanting to complete something and being able to initiate it are not always the same process. Procrastination can involve task initiation, overwhelm, perfectionism, unclear steps, working memory, time perception or difficulty generating enough interest or urgency to get started.

Can ADHD and anxiety happen together?

Yes. They can also reinforce each other. Missed deadlines, forgotten responsibilities, difficulty estimating time or repeated experiences of feeling behind can create anxiety, while anxiety can make concentration, decision-making and task initiation even harder.

Do you work with adults and teenagers with ADHD?

Yes. I work with adults and adolescents age 13 and older. The specific challenges may look different across different stages of life, but therapy can focus on understanding how ADHD or executive-functioning difficulties are affecting the demands you are facing now.
