If you’re seeking ADHD therapy in Maryland and Washington, DC, I offer secure, online sessions to help adults manage attention, impulsivity, and emotional regulation. I’m Dr. Gloria Vanderhorst, a licensed psychologist with over 30 years of experience supporting clients with ADHD and executive functioning challenges.
ADHD is often misunderstood. In adults, it may appear as difficulty managing time, staying organized, controlling impulses, or maintaining emotional balance. These challenges can affect your work, relationships, and sense of self-worth. Therapy can help you understand how ADHD affects your life, and what to do about it.
Signs You May Be Living With Adult ADHD
You may benefit from ADHD therapy if you experience:
- Trouble concentrating or completing tasks
- Disorganization or poor time management
- Restlessness or impulsive decision-making
- Intense emotional reactions or mood shifts
- Difficulty following through on responsibilities
- Chronic overwhelm or feelings of underperformance
- Procrastination, forgetfulness, or frequent distractions
These symptoms are not a reflection of laziness or lack of effort. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how your brain processes information and responds to stress. Therapy helps you work with your brain, not against it. Online ADHD therapy in Maryland and Washington, DC provides flexible, research-based support for students, professionals, and parents navigating executive functioning challenges.
