ADHD
Therapy

in Pleasant Hill and Alamo, CA

ADHD affects so much more than focus or organization—it shapes how you experience the world. For some, it can be overthinking to the point of overwhelm. For others, it’s the challenge of sitting still, staying on track, or racings thoughts and emotions that seem to flood in all at once. Hyperactivity can look like constant motion, an endless stream of ideas, or even internal restlessness that no one else sees.

Living with ADHD can also mean often feeling misunderstood by others or confused by second-guessing and self-doubts. Therapy creates a safe and judgment-free space to explore how you're impacted. Together, we find ways to handle frustrations, strengthen connections, and build on this actual superpower. Whether you’re managing ADHD for yourself or supporting a loved one, therapy helps you work through the struggles and feel better with practical strategies to create more balance in daily life and relationships.

What we can work on in ADHD therapy: 


  • Disorganization: creating systems to manage tasks, belongings, time

  • Irritability: learning emotional regulation and distress tolerance

  • Perfectionism: setting realistic goals and finding self-acceptance

  • Communication: improving listening skills, confidence, conflict style

  • Focus: learning attention regulation and manage distractions

  • Time Management: optimizing productivity, priorities and schedules

  • Avoidance: resolving underlying fears, making tasks manageable

  • Inattentiveness: new skills and changes to boost focus

  • Procrastination: addressing root causes, boosting motivation

  • Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria: managing insecurities or assumptions

  • Impulsivity: healthier decision-making to reduce hasty actions

  • Relationship Issues: repairing trust, resolving misunderstandings, healing resentments
