1. Do I need an ADHD diagnosis to start counseling?

No. You don’t need a formal ADHD diagnosis to start therapy. Many clients come in unsure if what they’re experiencing is ADHD—or something else. Part of our work together can include exploring those questions, understanding your symptoms, and deciding if a diagnosis is helpful or necessary.

2. Do you offer ADHD testing or diagnosis?

We are able to make an ADHD diagnosis based on the symptoms in the DSM-5. To put it simply, yes. That is not the same as a full psychological evaluation. We do not offer those and would need to be referred.

3. Is therapy only for people with ADHD?

Nope. While we specialize in ADHD, we also support clients dealing with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, executive functioning challenges, and relationship issues—many of which overlap with ADHD symptoms. Whether you have a diagnosis or not, you’re welcome here.

4. What age groups do you work with?

We currently work with teens (ages 13+) and adults. If you’re a parent looking for support for your teen—or if you’re an adult navigating ADHD for the first time—we can help.

5. What does ADHD counseling actually look like?

Therapy is tailored to your needs, but often includes:

• Understanding how ADHD impacts your life

• Building systems for time, focus, and follow-through

• Managing emotional sensitivity or overwhelm

• Strengthening relationships and communication

• Reducing shame and increasing self-compassion

We work together to make sense of how your brain works—and how to support it more effectively.

6. Do you offer virtual sessions?

Yes. We offer telehealth sessions for clients across Utah. Virtual counseling is convenient, confidential, and just as effective for most ADHD-related concerns.

7. What is your fee? Do you take insurance?

We are private-pay and do not bill insurance directly. Session fees are:

• $150 for individual sessions (50 minutes)

• Superbills can be provided if you’d like to request out-of-network reimbursement through your insurance.

We accept credit/debit cards, HSA, and FSA payments.

8. How often will we meet?

Most clients start with weekly or biweekly sessions. We’ll find a rhythm that works for your goals and availability. Some people stay short-term to work through specific issues, while others find long-term therapy helpful.

9. What’s the difference between ADHD therapy and ADHD coaching?

Both can be helpful—but they’re not the same.

ADHD therapy is provided by licensed mental health professionals (like therapists or counselors) and focuses on your emotional well-being, self-understanding, and mental health. It’s ideal if you’re dealing with overwhelm, anxiety, rejection sensitivity, relationship issues, or low self-esteem alongside ADHD.

ADHD coaching is more action-focused. Coaches help you build systems for managing time, setting goals, staying organized, and following through. Coaching is great if you’re emotionally stable and mostly looking for structure and accountability.
