Top ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Tampa, FL
ADHD affects concentration, planning, and emotional regulation differently for each person in Tampa. Our providers offer practical tools, medication management, and neurodiversity-affirming care to address hyperactivity, inattention, and impulsivity through proven approaches.
Many of my clients look like they have it together—but inside, they feel stuck, anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed in their relationships. I help adults untangle painful patterns rooted in emotional neglect, people-pleasing, or past relationships that felt confusing or unsafe. Together, we’ll slow down, go deep, and help you get to the root of the issue.

Hi! I am a fully licensed mental health therapist. I have been in the business of helping people for over 15 years. I am direct and solution oriented, but will not rush the process.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have spent the last eight years working with “at-risk” children and adolescents, referred by the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) Diversion programs. I currently work with the Genesis Women’s Clinic assisting antepartum and postpartum moms suffering from Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder, the Family Care Clinic providing Behavioral Therapy to families and adults, and the Pediatric Clinic at TGH Healthpark.
I received a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from Fort Lewis College, a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Social Science from the University of South Florida, and a Master’s in Social Work (MSW) from USF. My therapeutic approach is influenced by my clinical training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Art Therapist working with children, adolescents, and adults. I completed my Bachelor’s in Psychology with a Minor in Art and earned my Master of Science in Art Therapy from Florida State University.
I am passionate about helping others overcome challenges and understand the inner workings of their minds, empowering them to create positive changes in their lives. I’ve completed training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Advocacy Core Training.
I grew up in central Florida and earned my Bachelor of Science in Family and Child Sciences from Florida State University, followed by a Master of Arts in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida. During graduate school, I gained experience working in a treatment facility and with college students at USF, advocating for children’s educational needs while they balanced mental health treatment. This exposure led to my interest in behavior-focused therapy, particularly in using exposure techniques.
I’ve worked with children, teens, and adults dealing with obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety disorders, depression, Tourette's, and disordered eating.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Tampa, FL
Searching for ADHD therapists in Tampa starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy for ADHD may focus on executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, planning, organization, and emotional regulation. Medication management is different and is usually provided by a psychiatrist or another qualified prescriber. Some people look for therapy, some look for medication support, and some use both. If you are searching for adult ADHD therapy near me, an ADHD behavioral therapist near me, or support for a child or teen, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match the age group, concerns, and care style you want.
Tampa offers a range of therapy options, from local offices to virtual appointments across Florida. In a mid-size market, your search may include therapists near your neighborhood, therapists with flexible virtual availability, or ADHD specialists who also work with anxiety, depression, school stress, or work stress. These concerns can appear alongside ADHD, so it helps to choose a therapist with experience across more than one area when that matches your needs. Review therapist bios before booking to see how they describe their approach, session structure, ADHD experience, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Tampa can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to find therapists, including many who accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer clear booking options. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before your first session, then compare bios, availability, and appointment format so you can find a therapist who matches your needs and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
