Does this sound familiar?

You are managing ADHD with no real plan around the medication.

The medication worked at first. Then it did not, or it stopped fitting, and your prescriber renews the script every few months without ever really asking how it is going. The side effects nobody walked you through are still there. The dose has not changed in a year because nobody has revisited it. You are managing ADHD with a standing refill and a calendar reminder.

Maybe it is your kid. They were started on something a while back, it seemed to help, and the plan has been on autopilot ever since. School is harder again and you are not sure whether it is the dose, the timing or something else, but the appointments never seem to get into any of that.

ADHD care is supposed to be ongoing. The medication is one piece, and it works best when someone is actually paying attention to the rest: the sleep, the structure, the way life keeps changing. That is what ongoing treatment is for. The next step is a provider who keeps paying attention and a plan that keeps up with your life.

What we offer

Ongoing ADHD treatment for the people the autopilot refill leaves behind.

The medication stopped fitting

It worked at first, then it did not. The dose has not been revisited in a year and nobody has asked how it is actually going.

A prescriber who only ever refills

Every few months the script renews and that is the whole appointment. No look at sleep, structure or the life around it.

Just finished an evaluation

You have the diagnosis and now you want a plan you can actually start, with someone who will keep adjusting it.

A kid or teen on autopilot

They were started on something a while back and school is harder again. You are not sure if it is the dose, the timing or something else.

Switching away from a script-only provider

You want ongoing care that revisits the plan, not another standing refill from someone who never asks how you are.

A family that wants one practice

A child, a teen and a parent can all stay with the same practice as needs change, instead of finding a separate prescriber for each.

We treat kids, teens and adults. If you do not have a diagnosis yet, that is fine too, we can start with an evaluation and move into ongoing care from there.

Our approach

How ADHD treatment works here.

We treat ADHD as ongoing, whole-picture care, not a refill in a vacuum. The medication matters, and so does everything around it: your sleep, the structure of your days, your body and the way your life keeps shifting.

1

Reach out

A short form or a call. We hear what is going on, how ADHD is showing up day to day, and where your current care is falling short. Whether you have a diagnosis already or are coming from an evaluation, we pick up from where you are.

2

Get matched

We pair you with a psychiatric provider whose specialties fit the age and the situation, so a child is seen by someone who works with children and an adult by someone who works with adults. You see the same provider across your care so nobody loses the thread.

3

Start this week

First appointment in person at one of three Seattle-area offices or by secure video anywhere in Washington. From there the plan gets revisited as life changes, the dose, the timing, the supports around it, rather than set once and forgotten.

The method

Why a whole-picture lens.

ADHD treatment is ongoing care, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention describes it as often combining behavioral approaches and medication, while the National Institute of Mental Health notes that ADHD is a treatable condition managed with ongoing care in children and adults. So the work is not just whether the prescription is current. It is whether the whole plan is still serving you.

Medication management that gets revisited as life changes. Attention to sleep, structure and the daily supports the medication cannot carry on its own. Therapy is available alongside medication when that fits the work, so the two can reinforce each other. ADHD treatment may help you manage symptoms and function more like yourself. We will not promise to cure ADHD or guarantee an outcome. We will give you a provider who keeps paying attention.

We are not the fastest place to get a script and we are not trying to be. We are the option that takes your insurance, gets you in this week, treats kids, teens and adults, and revisits the whole plan instead of running a standing refill. Therapy is available alongside medication when that fits the work.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask before starting ADHD treatment.

Do you take my insurance for ADHD treatment?

We accept Kaiser, Premera, Regence, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare and Cigna. Much of the ADHD-care market is cash-pay, so taking these carriers is one of the bigger differences when you are shopping around. We will confirm what your specific plan covers before your first appointment.

How soon can I be seen for ADHD treatment?

First appointments are available the same week, so you do not have to wait weeks to get ongoing care set up. Much of the Seattle ADHD-care market is cash-pay with long waits. Reach out and we will find the first opening that works for you or your child, in person or by secure video.

Do you treat ADHD in kids and teens, or just adults?

Kids, teens and adults. We match each person with a provider whose specialties fit their age, so a child is seen by someone who works with children and an adult by someone who works with adults. Many ADHD prescribers see adults only, so the whole family being able to stay with one practice is one of the differences here.

Do I need an evaluation first, or can I transfer my existing ADHD care?

Both paths work. If you already have a diagnosis, we can take over your ongoing care. If you do not, we can start with an ADHD evaluation and move you into treatment from there.

Will I just get a refill, or do you actually revisit the plan?

We revisit the dose, the timing and the supports around the plan as your life changes, rather than renewing the same script on autopilot. ADHD care here is ongoing, and you see the same provider across your psychiatry and medication management so nobody loses the thread of how things have been going for you.

Do you offer ADHD treatment online or only in person?

Both. You can meet in person at our Green Lake, Burien or Smokey Point offices, or by secure video anywhere in Washington with online psychiatry, with the same provider either way.

Is therapy part of ADHD treatment?

It can be. Therapy is available alongside medication when that fits the work, so the two can support each other rather than running on separate tracks. For some people the structure, routines and coping strategies built in therapy are what make the medication side of the plan hold up day to day. When ADHD travels with anxiety or depression, the same practice can address those too.
