ADHD Therapists in Chicago, IL

I have been practicing as a Nurse Practitioner for the last 3 years. Prior to obtaining my Master’s degree, I worked as a Registered Nurse for 10 years in several different settings. My approach to service and treatment is always patient centered. I’m a huge advocate for patient’s rights and encourage my patient’s to be involved in their own medical decisions. I strive on developing strong relationships with my patients and being the most compassionate, empathetic and nonjudgmental person so they can feel comfortable talking to me and opening up about their health concerns.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with a background working with both adolescent and adult populations in treatment settings. My approach to therapy is collaborative and strengths based.

At some point nearly all of my clients tell me that they feel stuck. For some, this stuckness may mean not living a life that is as joyful or meaningful as they would like or feeling like they are falling short of who they want to be. Feeling stuck may lead to engaging in destructive habits like misusing substances, binge watching Netflix when you should be working or sleeping to avoid. Many of my clients have a history of trauma and have been living in survival mode for years. I am passionate about helping my clients get "unstuck" and helping them move forward in a meaningful direction.

Do you or a loved one experience and express emotions differently from others? Hyper-focus on interests in a way that allows for a state of ‘flow,’ but pulls from responsibilities and loved ones? Take in more sensory information than others and sometimes get overloaded by it? Has anyone ever suggested that you or your loved one might be Autistic or an ADHDer? While there are many strengths to neurodivergence, there can be difficulties due to living a world that is not designed for or accommodating of different neurotypes. It can also be difficult to know how best to support our loved ones who are Autistic or ADHDers.

If something in your life is not going the way you want it to go, therapy can help to reduce stress, improve relationships, and offer new ways of understanding your previous and current circumstances. If you or someone close to you is experiencing symptoms of Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, anxiety, depression, difficulty with relationships, or general dissatisfaction, I am here to help.

As a former lawyer turned therapist who has lived in 6 states, I'm no stranger to the winding path life takes us down, and I often connect with high stress business professionals struggling with the demands of the field and folks who are navigating career or other life changes. I’ve had success helping people who are struggling with executive functioning and who may need ADHD coaching. As a non-judgmental and queer therapist, I also feel especially equipped to help queer clients or clients looking to explore their sexuality in a safe space.

Hi! Whether this is the 1st or the 50th profile you've viewed, I'm sending you the highest of high fives for seeking support while surviving all of THIS (picture me gesturing to the current state of the world). Adulting is hard and it’s made worse when we feel alone in the challenges we face. Once upon a time I was clicking through so many profiles and not even sure who or what I was looking for. Gratefully, that search led me down a path that completely changed me for the better and is the reason why you're reading this. Today I work hard to extend the same support and compassion to my clients that I received when I needed it most.

I currently see clients who are wanting to work through sexual trauma, sexual dysfunction, anxiety, ADHD/executive functioning challenges, Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs), and gender/sexual identity topics. I also work with clients in ethically non-monogamous relationship structures. I have experience working with folks in the kink community and am a sex-worker friendly clinician. I am a good fit for clients that appreciate structure, evidence-based approaches, and collaborative treatment plans that include homework/work outside of sessions.

Oftentimes, reaching out for help is a big step towards wellness and healing. Congratulations on taking that step! My name is LaDonna Miller and I am a clinical social worker in Chicago, Illinois. I have over 9 years working in the mental health field and would love to work alongside you to accomplish your goals!

Hi, I'm Margaret, a nurse practitioner. I have been successfully managing depression and anxiety symptoms for several years, achieving positive outcomes and improving clients' lives.

I help women struggling with anxiety and ADHD gain confidence and identify ways to support their neurodiverse brains in a neurotypical society. People diagnosed with ADHD are likely to experience additional challenges with anxiety, depression, and disordered eating habits; this combination can make functioning day-to-day feel like a constant uphill battle.

As human beings we know life has a way of creating challenges we may find difficult to face on our own. I firmly believe each of us possess fundamental inner-strengths that can not only help us cope with these challenges, but flourish and thrive together. My goal as a therapist is to come alongside clients in a compassionate nonjudgmental stance to help identify your strengths and how to translate them into meaningful growth both within yourself and in your relationships. I value using a mind/body approach and a warm, relational atmosphere in therapy. I am LGBTQIA+-affirming, sex-positive, kink and poly-friendly.

Do you feel frustrated because you keep engaging in communication and behavior patterns that no longer serve you, or align with your values? Do you struggle with irritability, worry, poor focus, or memory problems? Do you find yourself experiencing problems with relationships, work, school, or life changes? If you're interested in learning new skills to manage stress/symptoms while effectively pursuing your goals, I might be able to help. Let's find ways you can thrive, not just survive.

As a therapist I help clients who are struggling to find their way in the world at any stage in life. This can be a life transition, trauma, grief, medical condition, anxiety, depression, ADHD, family, or relationship issues. All these factors, and more, affect us in different ways that can lead to feelings of isolation as we struggle to reconnect with ourselves. Each person's journey through healing is different and I utilize different tools and therapeutic approaches based on these unique needs.

My clinical approach is authentic and integrative, resulting in a collaborative treatment plan based on client’s culture and values, the best available clinical research, and clinical expertise for my clients to thrive in their lives. I enjoy working with children, adolescents and adults in individual, family and group settings. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Executive Functioning (EF) skills, complex trauma/PTSD, bipolar disorder, depression, racial/cultural identities, academic performance, family conflicts, relationship issues, grief, life transitions, stress and other life concerns. I also speak Korean.

I'm a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist who helps individuals mainly impacted by ADHD and concussion/TBI. I offer individual therapy for ADHD (ages 18+) and neuropsychological assessments for ADHD, TBI, and other neurologic conditions (ages 14+). Therapeutically, I use cognitive behavioral therapy, assertiveness training, and motivational interviewing (MI) methods within the context of an empathic and cohesive therapeutic relationship. NOTE: Therapy openings are more limited than are assessment. I'm licensed in IL, NY, and can offer telehealth sessions to clients in Psypact-participating states.

It is all too often we miss out on life as it unfolds, in the present moment. Our thoughts, feelings, and memories often leave us distracted, reactive, and approaching life as though it were a series of problems to be solved. In truth, some of us struggle with presence and reactivity more than others. Neurodiverse folks frequently struggle to regulate strong emotions, maintain healthy relationships, and manage activities of daily living.
