The right provider depends on the type of care you need. Licensed therapists — including licensed professional counselors (LPCs), psychologists, and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) — can help you develop strategies for focus, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can evaluate ADHD symptoms, provide a diagnosis, and prescribe medication. Some people work with both a therapist and a psychiatrist. On Headway, you can browse both provider types and filter by specialty.

There are several approaches that people may explore for ADHD, and a qualified healthcare professional can help determine what may be appropriate based on individual symptoms and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the most common, helping you identify patterns in thinking and behavior that affect focus and daily functioning. Other approaches include behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and skills-focused coaching. For children and teens, family-involved approaches can also be part of the plan. A provider experienced in ADHD can recommend the approach that makes the most sense for your situation.
