Couples & Parenting Counseling Serving New York & Connecticut (Telehealth)

ADHD & Executive Functioning

Attention and executive functioning challenges can affect every part of life—school, work, home routines, relationships, and self-esteem. Whether someone has a formal diagnosis or is simply struggling with focus, organization, emotional regulation, or follow-through, the impact can feel overwhelming and discouraging.

At Westchester Psychological Associates, we offer understanding, skill-building, and realistic strategies for adults navigating ADHD or ADHD-like patterns. Our goal is to help each client feel capable, supported, and more in control of their daily life.


Who We Support

We work with:

  • Adults managing attention, productivity, or organizational challenges

  • Parents seeking guidance on how to support a child with ADHD

  • Families facing conflict, stress, or overwhelm related to ADHD symptoms

  • Individuals without a formal diagnosis who still experience executive functioning difficulties

No matter the age or stage, we approach ADHD with compassion, clarity, and practical tools.


Common Areas of Focus

Support may include:

  • Improving focus and sustained attention

  • Managing impulsivity and emotional reactivity

  • Developing organizational systems and planning skills

  • Creating routines that actually work in real life

  • Building self-esteem and reducing shame or frustration

  • Supporting social skills and peer relationships

  • Helping parents understand their child’s needs—and their own

  • Navigating transitions, demands, and sensory or emotional overload


Our Approach

Our work blends cognitive-behavioral techniques, executive functioning coaching, behavioral strategies, emotion regulation skills, and developmental support. Sessions are practical, individualized, and tailored to each person’s strengths, challenges, and environment.

For adults, we focus on tools that help reduce overwhelm, increase follow-through, and build routines that feel sustainable—not punishing or rigid.

Our approach is strengths-based: ADHD is not a character flaw. With the right strategies and support, clients can thrive.


What You Can Expect

Clients and families often experience:

  • Better organization and time management

  • Reduced overwhelm and improved emotional regulation

  • Smoother routines and fewer daily battles

  • Increased confidence and self-awareness

  • More consistency in completing tasks or responsibilities

  • A clearer understanding of how ADHD impacts thoughts, behaviors, and relationships

  • A home environment that feels calmer and more predictable

Our goal is to help each person build skills that support success—not just in the moment, but across their life.
