Therapy for ADHD in Detroit, MI
Feel like you’re living up to your potential—instead of always playing catch-up.
Everyone else seems to manage life just fine—so why does yours feel like such a mess?
You're late—again. Not because you don't care, but because no matter how many alarms you set or lists you make, something always slips through the cracks. You can see it happening: you know you're dropping the ball. And somehow, knowing that doesn't make it any easier to stop.
The chaos is constant and exhausting. You hop from task to task without finishing anything, and by the time evening hits you have nothing to show for it. You're capable of so much more and you know it—which is the most painful part of all.
YOU’RE TIRED OF…
A house that's always disorganized and feels one step away from unmanageable, no matter how hard you try to get on top of it.
Putting something off until the dread of avoiding it has completely taken over, and then putting it off a little longer anyway.
Ending every day with that sinking feeling that you let someone down—and knowing that someone is usually yourself.
Watching everyone around you seem to juggle the basic stuff of adult life without breaking a sweat, while you're drowning in it—and feeling like you’re failing.
HOW IT WORKS
You’re not a failure, you’re just under-supported. Together, we can change that.
Most systems—workplaces, schools, daily routines—were designed for neurotypical brains. If yours works differently, you've probably spent a lot of energy trying to keep up with a world that isn’t always accommodating. That's no small feat. Through our work together, you can begin to understand how your brain operates, advocate for what you need, and start feeling like you're finally living up to what you know you're capable of.
Here’s how we do it…
We figure out what's actually going on.
We start by getting a real picture of how ADHD is showing up day-to-day and where you need the most help. A lot of our clients come in carrying years of shame and self-doubt built up from a lifetime of struggling—and understanding where that comes from is just as much a part of the work as the practical stuff.
1.
We build a plan you can actually get behind.
Not a generic framework designed for a brain that works differently than yours—something specific to your life, your symptoms, and what's realistic for you.
2.
We do real problem-solving every week.
Each session is structured around what you're struggling with each week. We identify concrete solutions to try, and work on building the systems and structures that make staying organized feel possible rather than another source of pressure.
3.
We address what's underneath.
If your ADHD is tangled up with anxiety, trauma, or long-standing patterns, we’ll use evidence-based methods to work through them. And if medication is something you're exploring, we can connect you with prescribers we trust and support you through that process.

IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE YOU…
Understand why life has felt so hard and what to do about it.
Missing deadlines, abandoning projects, constantly running late, feeling like you’re drowning in the current of life—it all starts to make sense. You know how your brain works and what's been getting in the way of reaching your full potential. The constant self-blame starts to lose its grip when you can finally see what's been driving it.
Have systems that work for you instead of constantly trying to force yourself into the ones designed for everyone else.
You have real structures and routines built around the way your brain actually operates, so staying organized and on top of things starts to feel possible. Not another generic planner that falls apart by day three. Something that actually fits your life.
Feel like you're keeping up instead of always running behind.
You show up on time. You follow through. You move through your day with confidence instead of that constant low-level dread and the feeling that you’re forgetting something. You finally feel like an adult who has their shit together.
YOU WERE MEANT FOR MORE THAN JUST MAKING IT THROUGH.

Common questions about anxiety therapy.
-
We use a mix of methods that typically include person-centered therapy to build the foundation of trust, trauma-informed CBT to address the shame and negative self-talk that years of struggling leave behind, and trauma processing through EMDR or somatic experiencing for clients whose ADHD is tangled up with trauma. The right mix looks different for everyone.
-
No. If you're struggling with symptoms that look like ADHD—chronic disorganization, difficulty focusing, heightened emotions, always feeling behind—we can work with you regardless of whether you have an official diagnosis. If a diagnosis would be helpful or clarifying, we can point you in the right direction.
-
Most of our clients start noticing real shifts within the first few months—not "I feel a little better" shifts, but actual changes in how they're functioning day to day. How long the full process takes depends on what's underneath. We track progress, talk about it openly, and adjust as things change.

A lot of people who end up in our office already know something is different about the way their brain works. They've spent years feeling like they're running a race everyone else finds easy, developing workarounds that mostly hold—until they don't. A formal diagnosis is the only way to know for certain, and if that's something you're curious about, our staff is able to provide diagnoses through a questionnaire assessment. But a diagnosis isn't required to get support. If you're struggling, that's enough.
-
All our therapists hold a master's or doctoral level degree and are trained in evidence-based approaches including trauma-informed CBT, motivational interviewing, DBT, and somatic experiencing, all of which we adapt to work with the neurodivergent brain. When you reach out, we take the time to match you with someone whose training and experience align specifically with what you're dealing with.
