Waitlist for new clients
After 35 years of providing neuropsychological assessment and psychotherapy at my Schaumburg office on Woodfield Road, I am in the process of retiring. I have sold my practice office to a physician and no longer have a physical location. I am not accepting any new neuropsychological assessment patients, although I intend to continue providing telehealth to current patients and may accept some new therapy patients and perform consultation services on a very limited basis. The best way to inquire about available services is to email me via the Psychology Today system.

I believe that every individual is born with a purpose and a plan. Yet, we are shaped by circumstances and events that create unhealthy and harmful patterns in our minds. Therefore, all of us need help to grow, to change, to reach a higher life-calling. I know this because I have been where you are at and I've experienced life-altering change. So, I'm committed to partner with my clients in the counseling process towards a better way of life. Change happens in relationship and relationships matter!

ADHD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
