a note from Carissa:

“As a therapist, I specialize in working with adults who have recently been diagnosed with ADHD. I understand that receiving a diagnosis can be overwhelming, and I'm here to help you navigate this new journey.

One area we can focus on in our sessions is medication. I know that deciding whether to take medication can be a difficult decision, and I'm here to provide you with information and support to make an informed choice that is right for you.

In addition to discussing medication, I can also help you create routines, structures, and best practices to manage your symptoms and live your best life. Together, we will work on developing strategies to help you stay organized, prioritize tasks, and manage time more effectively.

I believe that everyone has unique strengths and abilities, and I'm committed to helping you harness your strengths to achieve your goals. My goal is to empower you to take control of your ADHD, and to live the life you want on your own terms.”
