As someone who has ADHD myself—and with several of my kids—my best advice is this:

First: Work with a psychiatric mental health provider for diagnosis and management, not just primary care.
Second: Treatment should be comprehensive and holistic—not just medications, not just therapy, and not just supplements, but a thoughtful combination of these, depending on the person and their circumstances.
Third: The ultimate goal is quality of life, preserving self-esteem and supporting fulfillment.
Fourth: Treatment must always be individualized.

I am a Holistic Functional Medicine Family Nurse Practitioner and soon-to-be licensed Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.
My approach integrates Functional Medicine root-cause evaluation with Psychiatry.

Depending on the individual, I may incorporate supplements, hormone and thyroid optimization, peptides, neurofeedback, bilateral stimulation, and more.

For my older child, this includes supplements, stimulant as needed, and thyroid optimization.
For my younger children, we focus on supplements and bilateral stimulation, with plans to add neurofeedback.

This is exactly why I emphasize care that is tailored to the person, the circumstances, and the whole picture.

I’ll be adding comprehensive psychiatry services starting next month, with a gradual rollout focused on neurodivergence. I’m also hoping to add QbCheck, an FDA-approved, reliable objective tool that supports ADHD diagnosis—used alongside clinical assessments and validated forms—to ensure diagnoses are solid and not just guesses.

Despite my best efforts, my website is not ready today as I had hoped. I hired an amazing team, but hiccups with the logo set me behind. December was one chaotic month—trying to complete and graduate from my psychiatric program, meet deadlines with paperwork and vendors before the end of the year, and close my old PLLC in Texas.

But silver linings do exist—and so does the mercy of God, meeting my meager efforts and allowing things to unfold in ways I never expected. The logo concept was actually shared by someone in this group (I wish I remembered who it was), who suggested focusing on my demographics. The logos created by the designers didn’t reflect that—but the new logo does, and I truly love it.

Because the website came to a stall, I was forced to learn how to update it myself just to move forward. I created a new domain, modified my pages, set up a new email, obtained a new phone and fax number, connected everything to the website, added patient posts to edge browsers, and more—all after countless hours guided by AI.

This experience reminded me of a time after my late husband passed away, when my garage door broke. I was angry—angry at him for leaving me behind to fix everything on my own. I slammed that door so hard on the rail that I actually fixed it. Later, another widow said to me, “There’s nothing we can do—we just have to be creative and find original ways. I use YouTube.”

Now, in a different era, I used AI.

I’m not suggesting we dismiss experts or the human element behind great work. What I am saying is that sometimes hardship and obstacles force us to learn in ways we never would have otherwise. God did not design us to fail, but to grow and succeed. Persistence—paired with faith and hope—is often what keeps us going.

Anyway, I hope you find the silver linings when everything feels dark, and that the new year brings you new opportunities to learn and grow
