You have been waiting months or even years for answers. We are ready to give them to you. 👏👏

Adult ADHD evaluations are officially available at Strive CLE Counseling and we are now booking June appointments. This is not a quick checklist and a prescription. It is a thorough four session process that actually looks at the full picture of who you are and how your brain works, ending with real recommendations you can take action on.

Whether you have suspected ADHD for years or just started wondering, you deserve clarity not a years long waitlist.

Financing options are available. Drop a comment, send us a message, or reach out through our website to get scheduled.

✨Therapist Tip with Amanda✨
Prior to my current Third Responder position, I spent 17 years working within both the criminal and social justice systems. From implementing a Veterans Treatment Court, to assisting with PREA implementation, to conducting Forensic Interviews, to responding to crisis on-call shift work for victims/survivors of violence, along with many other experiences, I deeply value this work and recognize the intricacies and challenges within these systems.

Those unspoken thoughts? I hear you. Self-blame, guilt, shame, fear of judgement, and concerns about job security can feel isolating when your experiences are hard to explain or when people don’t want to hear them.

Shift work? Mandatory OT? Invisible loads? Lived experience. “Come home safe.” Military and First Responder families know how deeply those 3 words hit.

Healing does not happen in isolation. Feel free to reach out and schedule a free 15-minute interview if you’re interested in services. 💛

P.S. Stay tuned for questions to ask when seeking out a clinician who understands your needs.

Walking into a room, looking up, making direct eye contact with the overhead lights, and immediately becoming a different and worse person. 😅

We’re not saying it is rational, but it is real!
Sensory sensitivity is more common than most people realize and there is actually an explanation for why certain environments feel like a personal attack.

Our therapists can help you make sense of it. Reach out through our website to get started. 💙

Intrusive thoughts are not a sign that something is wrong with you. They are a sign that your brain is working overtime. There are ways to work with that.
Five things that genuinely help when your brain will not let something go:
Name it without engaging it. “There’s that thought again.” You do not have to solve it or make it mean something.
Do something with your hands. Folding laundry, cooking, drawing. A task pulls your brain out of the loop.
Change your physical state. Cold water on your face, step outside, move your body. Your body can interrupt what your mind cannot.
Set a worry window. Give yourself 10 minutes to think about it fully and then move on.
Say it in the most boring voice possible. Flat. Monotone. No drama. Your brain holds on less tightly to things it cannot make feel urgent.
If intrusive thoughts are running your day, our team can help. Reach out through our website to get started.

If you have spent your whole life thinking you were just too sensitive, too distracted, or too much, this one is for you.
Most people think ADHD looks like a kid who cannot sit still. But, for a lot of adults it looks like exhaustion that does not make sense, sounds that take over your brain, and environments that feel overwhelming when everyone else seems fine.

If this resonated, keep your eyes on our page. Something is coming soon that could finally give you some answers.
