BUILT FOR ADHD

With the right care team,  ADHD stops running the show.

CARE WHEN YOU'VE never gotten it before

Maybe nobody ever took this seriously before.

Maybe you were told you just needed to try harder, or you've spent years managing this on your own without the right support.
Here's what to know.
01
You don't need to have it figured out
You don't need to have it figured out
02
You don't need a diagnosis
You don't need a crisis either. You just need to want something to feel different.
03
It's not weird to feel weird about it
Most people do at first. It gets easier — usually fast.
04
You can stop, switch, or change direction
Anytime. Always. This is your call.
When life is in motion

Care should work with that—not against it.

A lot is changing right now. Schedules, addresses, jobs, who you live with, what your week looks like. Here's how we keep up.

Questions parents ask

You're not the only one wondering.

Do I need a diagnosis to start?
No. You do not always need a formal diagnosis to begin therapy. We can discuss your needs, concerns, and goals during the initial consultation and help determine what type of support may be appropriate.
What ages do you serve?
We provide therapy and support for children, teens, and adults. The best way to determine whether our services are a good fit is to contact us and discuss your needs and goals.
Is this covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage depends on your individual insurance plan and the services you receive. We recommend checking with your insurance provider regarding your specific benefits. We can also provide information about our fees and payment options.
How is therapy different for ADHD patients?
Therapy is personalized to each individual strengths, communication style, sensory needs, and goals. For ADHD, we focus on creating a supportive, comfortable environment while helping develop skills such as communication, emotional regulation, social interaction, independence, and everyday functioning.
Can I switch therapists if it's not a good fit?
Absolutely. A strong relationship between the child, family, and therapist is important for successful therapy. If you feel that your current therapist isn't the right fit, please let us know. We'll work with you to find a better match whenever possible.
What if we move to another state?
If you move to another state, please let us know as soon as possible. Because therapy licensing requirements vary by state, we may not always be able to continue providing services after you move. We can help you understand your options and, when possible, assist with finding an appropriate provider in your new location.
