Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a brain disorder that is typically characterized by a lack of impulse control, an inability to focus and pay attention, and hyperactivity. ADHD most commonly emerges in children and teens and can continue into adulthood. In fact, ADHD is the most common mental health disorder diagnosed in young people and sufferers often have trouble paying attention in school. ADHD must be diagnosed by a qualified clinician. In addition to medical interventions, seeing a mental health practitioner who specializes in the treatment of ADHD can help patients and their families better cope with many of the symptoms.

— Joyce Luna Zymeck, Psychotherapist in Tucson, AZSometimes, therapists do not have an in-depth understanding of the best way to help adults and teens with ADHD because ADHD is different from other conditions we treat.

I combine my lived experiences with evidence-based practices to help you increase your quality of life with your brain style in mind.
