Is ADHD real in adults?
Yes. Many adults remain undiagnosed until later in life. Adult ADHD often looks like overwhelm, burnout, chronic procrastination, or emotional sensitivity.

Do I need to take medication?
Not necessarily. While medication is often helpful, we tailor your treatment based on your values and goals. Some clients prefer behavioral strategies or non-medication approaches.

Can you help me get a formal diagnosis?
Yes. We offer psychiatric evaluations with structured ADHD screenings and documentation that can be shared with schools, therapists, or employers.
