ADHD
Support for adults and teens living with ADHD, including people diagnosed late, after years of assuming the difficulty was a character flaw.
What We Work On
Amber Weiss, MA, LMHC-D, NCC does not conduct psychological testing and does not prescribe. Formal ADHD evaluation is done by a psychologist or physician, and medication is a conversation with a prescriber. Therapy runs alongside either, or neither.
Sessions are practical and structured, because open-ended reflection is a poor fit for this. We build external scaffolding, test it against a real week, and adjust what did not survive contact.
Equally important is the second layer: undoing years of interpreting an executive-function difference as laziness. CBT addresses that narrative, and self-compassion and mindfulness-based work address the reaction to slipping.
More on ADHD Support
Often it starts with the last week as it actually went: what got started, what slid, and where the day lost its shape. From there we pick one system to test, such as a start ritual, a visible task list or a different way to plan the morning, and check it next time.
ADHD often affects the people around you too: missed plans, forgotten details, one person carrying the reminders. Some of the work can include how to talk about that without blame, and how to share the load differently.
The free 5 to 10 minute consultation is the place to ask whether this fits what you are dealing with. You do not need to explain everything on that call.
