What does ADHD look like?
Does your brain feel like a browser with 87 tabs open…and not one of them is loading? ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) isn’t just about being “distracted.” It affects attention, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and even self-esteem. While it’s often diagnosed in childhood, many people don’t receive a diagnosis until adulthood—especially women and marginalized individuals.
You might relate if you’re trying your best, but:
• You forget what you were doing mid-task (even if it was urgent).
• You start 5 projects and finish none.
• You can’t sit still, but you also can’t get moving.
• You lose track of time and always feel behind.
• You know you’re capable, but feel stuck in overwhelm, shame or self-doubt.
If you ever thought, “Why can’t I just get it together? – you’re not alone.
What to Expect from ADHD Therapy
At Evolution Wellness in Wilmington, we tailor therapy to support your unique brain and life experience. ADHD shows up differently for everyone, so we take the time to get to know you, your goals, and what’s getting in your way.
Here’s what you really want (and what’s actually possible):
• To feel calm and clear insread of anxious and chaotic
• To follow through on what matters (not just the urgent stuff)
• To get organized without drowning in planners or shame
• To build routices that support your energy and rhythm
• To trust yourself again and stop hiding your brilliance
We also offer psychoeducation about how ADHD really works (hint: it’s not about laziness) and how to manage it with self-compassion, not shame.
ADHD in Women and Marginalized Groups
ADHD is often underdiagnosed in women and AFAB individuals, especially those with inattentive-type symptoms. Many of our clients come to us after years of misdiagnosis, burnout, or feeling “too emotional” or “not disciplined enough.”
We understand the unique ways ADHD intersects with identity, trauma, and social expectations—and we’re here to help you unpack all of that in a supportive, affirming space.
Our Approach
Our therapists use evidence-based modalities like:
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
• Motivational Interviewing
• Mindfulness-Based Techniques
• Strengths-Based Coaching
We’ll work together to find what works for you—whether that means exploring practical strategies, processing the emotional toll of ADHD, or unlearning years of internalized shame.
