What sets Anne C. Totero, LMFT’s Adult ADHD Group apart from others?

Cohort-Based

This means those who start the group together, end the group together so you are building relationships with other who have been diagnosed with ADHD and learning how to manage the diagnosis in adulthood. There are TEN sessions total. Please note that if you are going to miss 2 or more sessions, we ask you wait until you can attend all and only miss one or less.

Psychoeducation + Skills + Process

This group includes at least 45 minutes of psychoeducation about ADHD and skill-based executive functioning and behavioral therapy skills. Then there is 30 minutes of meaning making and processing how those skills CAN be applied to your everyday living. This includes cultural considerations and barriers.

Evidence-Based

The evidence-based practices Anne incorporates in her group includes but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Executive Functioning (EF) Skills. Evidence-based and Measurement-Informed care improves the chance not just for improvement in symptoms in real time yet sustainable change.
