What Makes Therapy for ADHD in Plano, TX Different with Elizabeth Handy?
There’s more to ADHD than restlessness and distraction. Many individuals—especially women and adults—go undiagnosed for years because their symptoms don’t match the hyperactivity often portrayed in the media. They may struggle with executive dysfunction, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, or "brain fog." That’s why working with an experienced ADHD Therapist in Plano, TX who understands the full picture of ADHD is so important. Elizabeth Handy approaches Therapy for ADHD in Plano, TX with insight, compassion, and clinical expertise. She helps clients understand how their brain works, recognize patterns that aren’t serving them, and develop practical skills to create lasting change. Here’s what you can expect:
- Nonjudgmental conversations about your daily challenges
- Tools for time management, organization, and focus
- Support with emotional regulation and impulsivity
- Healing for the shame or anxiety tied to years of masking or underperformance
- Optional integration of EMDR and Brainspotting to treat trauma often associated with ADHD
Whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis or have been managing ADHD for years, Elizabeth offers ADHD Counseling Services in Plano, TX that are individualized, empowering, and built around your life—not someone else’s expectations. Clients often describe Elizabeth as calm, grounded, and deeply affirming.

ADHD shows up differently for everyone. Some clients struggle with motivation and forgetfulness; others feel constantly overstimulated and emotionally reactive.

- Women and non-binary clients with inattentive-type ADHD or misdiagnosed anxiety

That’s why therapy includes not only behavior-based strategies but also identity-affirming, healing-focused support. Elizabeth’s approach to Focus and Attention Therapy for ADHD in Plano, TX is integrative, acknowledging the full scope of who you are—not just your attention span.
