Therapist

I'm a trauma-informed therapist in New York and Florida who works specifically with moms of explosive boys. My training is rooted in understanding the nervous system — which means I work beneath the behavior, not just at the surface of it. I'm not going to hand you a sticker chart or tell you to pick your battles. I understand what you're actually dealing with — and I take it seriously.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Buffalo

Finding ADHD therapists in Buffalo starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, procrastination, focus, and routines. Psychiatrists may support medication management, assessment, or diagnosis when that is part of your care plan. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can also involve different needs, so look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your age, goals, and concerns.

In a mid-sized market like Buffalo, your search may include therapists near your neighborhood, nearby suburbs, or virtual appointments across New York. Virtual care can expand your options if local availability is limited or if your schedule works better from home. Many people looking for ADHD support also look for help with anxiety, depression, school stress, or work-related concerns, so it can help to choose a therapist with experience in more than one area. Read therapist bios for details on approach, session style, ADHD experience, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Buffalo can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated costs before you book. You can search for therapists who focus on ADHD, review availability, compare profiles, and confirm coverage for your plan, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your insurance, and is accepting new patients.

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.
