Adult ADHD Treatment

Med Harmony offers treatment for adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) that helps you step into your true potential. Our highly personalized, conservative psychiatric approach focuses on your brain chemistry as much as your professional goals. We want to help you step out of the fog and burnout that happens with untreated adult ADHD and give you the tools you need to be confident in yourself.

You can access care through our telepsychiatry model or in person if you're in the Fort Worth area. This flexibility is especially helpful for adults who struggle with executive function, since it's much easier to get to appointments when they're from the comfort of your home or office. 

Early intervention is ideal for ADHD, and while many adults often have to unlearn behaviors they used to self-manage, finding the right access to care fast can help you start that process. We never rush your care, taking our time with every aspect, from the objective ADHD evaluation to medication management, to make genuine, long-term success possible.

Finding an Adult ADHD Psychiatrist

Leaving adult ADHD untreated can derail your life in ways that you might even get used to. You eventually feel like experiencing anxiety, depression, or low self-confidence is just who you are. However, there is an adult ADHD psychiatrist who can help you discover the truth. You are not broken; you just need the right treatment.

Our providers understand you. We know that having ADHD isn't a personal failing. Instead, it's a difficult combination of symptoms that can make you feel lazy, overly emotional, and confused about why you can't just will yourself to focus and get things done. Med Harmony providers know this is a neurological challenge — one they can address with the right medication management. We treat you like an equal partner in your care because you know yourself. With our clinical guidance, you'll get the answers you want and the care you need to redirect your life the way you want.

Comprehensive Adult ADHD Evaluations and Diagnosis

ADHD is often thought of as a childhood condition, but that's partly because millions of adults have struggled with their symptoms for years without a proper diagnosis or treatment. They've learned to “mask” their symptoms to fit into a neurotypical world, which can make understanding adult ADHD much more challenging, especially in specific presentations, like the primarily inattentive presentation. 

At Med Harmony, you'll work with an ADHD psychiatrist to determine your diagnosis using objective testing tools. Instead of relying solely on subjective questionnaires, we use QbCheck. This FDA-cleared testing tool measures all the core symptoms of ADHD, like impulsivity and motor activity, even in adults who often attempt to mask these behaviors.

Your ADHD evaluation also goes over your family history and genetics. ADHD can be a hereditary condition, and understanding your genetic background can help an ADHD specialist make a confident determination. Combined with information about your daily behavioral challenges and personal experience with ADHD-related symptoms, we'll differentiate true ADHD from other overlapping mental health conditions that often look similar. This protects you from misdiagnosis and prevents you from receiving treatment that doesn't work with your brain chemistry. 

Medication Management for ADHD in Adults

Medication management is central to the care you'll receive at Med Harmony. We approach prescriptions with the utmost care and respect for your life, while ensuring maximum effectiveness. One of our board-certified ADHD specialists will prescribe medication based on your specific neurochemistry. 

Stimulant medications and non-stimulant medications can both be effective for adults with ADHD, but both require careful dosing and a deep understanding of how the medication works. Adderall, Ritalin, and Vyvanse are among the most commonly prescribed stimulant medications. They are often the gold standard for ADHD treatment, improving inattention, disorganization, focus, and, in some individuals, emotional regulation. 

Other non-stimulant options, like Strattera or Intuniv, are often preferable and can be equally effective as stimulant medications for some. They can often be ideal for those who experience anxiety or sleep problems when taking stimulant medications, and can still address many of the most troublesome ADHD symptoms. Even Wellbutrin, a medication typically prescribed for depression and anxiety, can be an off-label option for adult ADHD, often acting as a mild stimulant and relieving symptoms of co-occurring mental health disorders.

Whichever becomes a part of your treatment, you'll always know what to expect before moving forward. Finding the right medication takes time, and we give you the time you need through 30-minute follow-up sessions. We schedule these frequently enough to monitor your progress and adjust dosages to fit your life.

Benefits of Our Personalized ADHD Treatment Plans

ADHD presents very differently in adults, and every adult experiences their ADHD differently. We know just how important it is to have personalized treatment plans that account for your brain and emotional needs rather than relying on checking off symptoms.

‍

Addressing Co-Occurring Mental Health Issues

Adults with ADHD often have co-occurring conditions, including severe anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, depression, or other neurodevelopmental disorders. This can complicate existing ADHD symptoms, which further complicates your life. Our providers know what to look for to account for co-occurring mental health issues. We treat these challenges at the same time so one condition doesn't worsen because of another.

Collaborative Psychotherapy

Complementary therapies, like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), are incredibly helpful for individuals with adult ADHD. Medication can help balance your brain chemistry, but practical tools to improve time management and emotional regulation ensure you cover every aspect of your mental health. We collaborate with your therapist so that everything is perfectly aligned and everyone is clear on your care.

Therapy and Coaching Referrals

We believe that ADHD is one of the mental health conditions that benefits most from talk therapy and coaching. This is partially because some medication options work for a specific window, but you have ADHD 24/7. If you ever need additional behavioral support or help with your inattention and disorganization, we'll connect you with a network of local professionals. Whether you're interested in an executive function coach or a specialized therapist, we have trusted contacts you can work with to round out your care.

Benefits of Online ADHD Treatment

Telepsychiatry makes it easier for adults to access high-quality psychiatric care without the common barriers of in-person appointments. Through secure virtual appointments, you can connect with our board-certified adult ADHD psychiatrists from the comfort and privacy of your home or office. Flexible scheduling eliminates the need to commute, making it easier to fit psychiatric care into a busy schedule and stay consistent with treatment.

For adults with ADHD, virtual psychiatric care can also make it easier to attend appointments and maintain continuity of care. Eliminating travel time and reducing the logistical demands of in-person visits may help address common challenges with time management, organization, and remembering appointments. Our telepsychiatry approach provides a convenient and accessible way to receive ongoing ADHD evaluation, medication management, and psychiatric support.

Telepsychiatry also allows your provider to monitor your progress through regular virtual follow-ups. We can assess how you are responding to medication, discuss changes in your symptoms or needs, and make treatment adjustments when appropriate. With convenient access to ongoing psychiatric care, you can receive consistent support without having to disrupt your daily routine. 

Your Adult ADHD Appointment

Your first appointment focuses on helping you feel heard and understood. We start your care with a 60-minute evaluation where we review your medical history, career challenges, and relationship dynamics. We'll use this to build a collaborative treatment plan with you and schedule your objective ADHD testing. Follow-up appointments are 30 minutes long and just as focused on you — we never rush your care and give you the floor to discuss any thoughts or questions you have about your treatment.

Signs of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
That Require Intervention

ADHD looks like many other mental health conditions — and many other mental health conditions or mood disorders can mimic ADHD. This is one of the main reasons to seek a professional ADHD evaluation; it ensures you get the right treatment for the right condition.

Pointing out adult ADHD can also be more challenging because many neurodivergent adults have learned to hide some of their symptoms (often called “masking”), which furthers the necessity to meet with an adult ADHD psychiatrist.

Telltale signs of ADHD that justify reaching out to a healthcare professional for an evaluation include:

Each of these symptoms can complicate your life in all kinds of ways, even leading to other conditions like anxiety and depression. Expert psychiatric support can transform your relationship with ADHD, replacing frustration with focus and confidence so you can start thriving.
