Maybe you have always been the one who kept everything together.
You remembered the appointments. Managed the family calendar. Met the deadlines. Organized the school forms. Juggled work, kids, friendships, marriage, groceries, emails, and approximately 47 browser tabs in your brain at all times.
If you or someone you love has ADHD, you've probably discovered that there is no shortage of advice online. One search can leave you with thousands of books, podcasts, social media accounts, supplements, planners, and productivity tips, many of which contradict one another. It can be difficult to know where to start.
At Heights Family Counseling, we believe therapy should never be one size fits all. Every person walks through our doors with a unique story, which is why we've intentionally built a team of clinicians with diverse specialties and expertise to meet people wherever they are in life.
A few months ago, I decided we needed to bring LENS neurofeedback to Heights Family Counseling. The idea wasn't because I had become a neurofeedback enthusiast overnight. It was because I kept hearing the same thing from families.
At Heights Family Counseling, we are always looking for thoughtful, effective ways to support the nervous system, especially for children, teens, and adults who feel stuck despite doing all the “right” things.
We are excited to share that we will soon be offering LENS Neurofeedback as part of our services.
This approach is gaining attention for its ability to support brain regulation in a way that is gentle, noninvasive, and often deeply calming.
Some children look like they are doing everything right.
They follow the rules, work hard in school, rarely push back, and seem deeply motivated to make adults happy. Teachers love them. Parents feel proud. From the outside, it can look like confidence, responsibility, and maturity.
They react strongly to criticism, shut down quickly after small disappointments, or seem overwhelmed by the possibility that someone is upset with them. Parents often describe walking on eggshells, unsure how such small moments can lead to such big emotional responses.
If you have a child who seems to resist everyday demands in a way that feels intense, emotional, or even confusing, you are not alone. Many parents come into our practice feeling exhausted, unsure of what they are doing wrong, and worried about their child’s future.
The start of the school year is an exciting time—but it can also be a challenging one, especially for children, teens, or adults navigating ADHD. New routines, transitions, and academic demands can magnify difficulties with executive functioning, emotional regulation, and focus. That’s why this season is the perfect time to seek support and clarity through a comprehensive ADHD evaluation and tailored services.
