ADHD Therapy for Teens & Adults in Indianapolis

No. You don't need a formal diagnosis, or even to be sure ADHD is the issue. Therapy is a place to understand what's getting in the way, notice patterns, and figure out what kind of support would actually help. If what you need is formal diagnostic testing or documentation for school or work, ask Jenny at the consultation so she can tell you whether that fits or point you to someone who does it.

Yes. Teens, college students, young adults, and adults. You don't have to be in school for trouble with focus, time, or follow-through to be worth addressing, and plenty of adults are figuring out for the first time that this has a name.

Starting and finishing things, time and organization, the emotional side (overwhelm, frustration, shame), and the relationships that have absorbed years of missed things. Also the quieter work of understanding how your brain operates so you stop treating every slip as a character flaw.

No. Organization may be part of it, but so are confidence, stress, self-criticism, and relationships. Getting through the day matters. So does how you feel about yourself while you do it.

Then we look at where each one stopped working. Too complicated? Easy to forget? Great at work, useless at home? The strategy isn't the problem; the fit is. Jenny helps you find one you'll still be using when you're tired. Some of what you've absorbed along the way is probably a myth.

Yes, when it helps, and with the teen in the loop. How much depends on the teen's age, needs, and goals. Jenny explains at the start how she handles communication with parents and where confidentiality begins and ends, so nobody is surprised later. When the whole household needs to be in the room, family therapy is an option.

Often, yes. Medication can help with attention; it doesn't teach you how to start a task, run a morning, or stop a small mistake from becoming a spiral. Therapy works on those. Medication decisions stay with your prescriber. If years of ADHD have left you flat and discouraged as well as scattered, depression and ADHD often overlap, and Jenny treats both.

Constantly, and usually through small things: the forgotten errand, the unanswered text, the chore that became a fight about respect. Jenny works on this in individual sessions, and there's a whole article on how it happens: Small tasks, big fights.

Yes, by video anywhere in Indiana, with the same 55-minute sessions and the same therapist as in the office. You need to be physically in Indiana during the session and somewhere you won't be overheard; a parked car counts. Online therapy is also available in Florida with Jill and Christie.

Fifteen minutes on the phone usually settles it. Tell her what's going on and what you're hoping for; she'll tell you honestly whether working together makes sense, and if it doesn't, who might be a better fit. No forms, no commitment.
