ADHD Therapists in Falmouth, ME
I work with people navigating significant life transitions - when what once fit no longer does, and the next step isn't yet clear.
Often there's a quiet but persistent awareness that something or someone, no longer fits who they're becoming. Not because everything has fallen apart, but because something internal has shifted and can no longer be ignored.
My work is direct, engaged, and depth oriented. I am not a passive listener, and I don't stay at the surface. I track patterns quickly. I offer a steady, focused safe space to help you clarify what is ending, what is emerging, and what needs to change.

What do you look for in a therapist? What's important? Surprisingly, age, gender, years of training and theoretical orientation are not the primary factors correlated with the effectiveness of a therapist. So how do you choose someone? Is it by their picture? The best website? The one that's taking new clients? Finding the right person can be incredibly difficult. Research suggests that the most important factors in positive therapeutic outcomes are the therapeutic alliance, working together to set collaborative goals, and the therapist's ability to be empathetic, accepting and genuine.

I warmly welcome adults at every stage of life into my practice. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, caring, and conscientious individuals who want more than symptom relief—they want to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and create a life that feels more authentic and meaningful. I am privileged to work with individuals across the life span including older adults who face both new challenges and unique opportunities: to let go of what no longer serves, to deepen self-understanding, discover what matters most, and live with greater presence, authenticity, and compassion. Age is no barrier here.

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.
