ADHD Therapy in Southlake That Helps You or Your Child Thrive

Living with ADHD can be frustrating, overwhelming, and often misunderstood—but the right support can make all the difference. At Encompass Therapy & Counseling in Southlake, TX, we provide therapy and guidance for children, teens, and adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), helping them build skills, manage challenges, and succeed in ways that feel authentic and empowering.

Whether you're a parent trying to help your child stay on track, a teen feeling overwhelmed by school and social pressures, or an adult struggling with focus and follow-through, our therapists offer personalized care that meets you exactly where you are.

What Is ADHD?

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects a person’s ability to regulate attention, impulse control, and executive functioning. It’s not just about being "hyper" or “distracted.” People with ADHD often have difficulty with organization, time management, memory, and emotional regulation. These challenges can impact daily life, relationships, academic or career success, and self-esteem.

Common symptoms include:

  • Trouble focusing or completing tasks
  • Forgetfulness, losing items, or disorganization
  • Impulsive decisions or interrupting others
  • Restlessness or constant movement
  • Emotional outbursts or mood swings
  • Difficulty starting or finishing projects
  • Struggles with time awareness and planning

ADHD looks different for everyone. Some people are primarily inattentive, while others are hyperactive or a combination of both. No matter the presentation, therapy can provide tools that support growth, self-awareness, and a more manageable daily routine.

Supporting Teens with ADHD Through Therapy

Teenagers with ADHD often face increasing demands—academically, socially, and emotionally. As responsibilities grow, so can feelings of overwhelm, self-doubt, or underachievement. Therapy gives teens the space to explore their challenges and learn how to manage them with confidence.

We help teens with ADHD:

  • Organize schoolwork and manage deadlines
  • Improve self-advocacy and executive functioning
  • Navigate friendships, relationships, and identity
  • Reduce emotional reactivity and impulsive decisions
  • Build positive habits and reduce self-criticism

Our goal is to help teens feel more in control of their minds, actions, and future—while also supporting parents with strategies to guide and motivate without constant conflict.

How We Help Children with ADHD

Children with ADHD often struggle with school, friendships, and home routines. They may act out, get frustrated easily, or feel like they’re “always in trouble”—which can damage confidence and family relationships over time.

We work closely with children and their caregivers to:

  • Improve focus and listening skills
  • Strengthen emotional regulation and self-control
  • Reduce disruptive behaviors and impulsivity
  • Build self-esteem through success-oriented strategies
  • Support transitions, routines, and academic structure
  • Guide parents with behavior plans and practical tools

Our child therapists use play-based techniques, behavioral strategies, and positive reinforcement to make therapy engaging and effective. We also collaborate with parents, teachers, and schools as needed to support consistency and progress across environments.

Adult ADHD: You're Not Lazy—You're Wired Differently

Many adults with ADHD were never diagnosed as children, only realizing something feels “off” when they struggle with career consistency, relationships, or daily routines. Others may have been diagnosed earlier but are still searching for ways to manage symptoms that persist into adulthood.

Common struggles for adults with ADHD include:

  • Chronic disorganization or missed deadlines
  • Difficulty focusing in meetings or conversations
  • Trouble finishing what you start
  • Relationship strain from forgetfulness or emotional intensity
  • Feeling overwhelmed by routine tasks
  • Imposter syndrome or harsh self-talk

Therapy can help adults identify how ADHD affects their life and build skills that support lasting change. Our therapists provide practical strategies for time management, goal-setting, task prioritization, emotional regulation, and communication. We also address the emotional toll of years of misunderstanding, underperformance, or self-blame.
