Anna Chapman, LMSW, MSEd

adhd therapists in brooklyn

Good fit for adults with ADHD

As someone who is neurodivergent herself and spent twenty years as an educator before becoming a therapist, I bring a perspective to ADHD work that's both deeply personal and grounded in extensive professional experience. I understand how ADHD shows up not just in your inner world, but in school systems, workplaces, and relationships, and my approach emphasizes embracing how your brain naturally works instead of trying to “fix” you. Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been knowingly navigating neurodivergence your whole life, I’m here to support you.

Jenna Rossi, MHC-LP

therapist for adhd brooklyn

Good fit for adolescents and teens with ADHD

After spending 12 years as a guidance counselor supporting elementary students with ADHD, emotional regulation, and anxiety, I now bring that hands-on experience into a clinical therapy setting for teens and young adults. I know how ADHD can make school feel like an uphill battle and how that frustration follows people long after graduation into their relationships, their self-esteem, and their identity. In our work together, I help clients build practical communication and coping skills while also addressing the emotional weight that often tags along with ADHD, like shame, anxiety, and self-doubt.

  • Credentials: Mental Health Counselor - Limited Permit #18-P137788-01, Master’s Degree in School Counseling

  • Specialty Areas: Neurodivergence, ADHD, autism, emotional regulation, anxiety, relationships, trauma, reproductive health


Other local ADHD treatment providers we recommend

Dr. Mikki Lee

adhd therapist near me

Good fit for formal ADHD testing

While a formal diagnosis isn’t required to work with us, it is understandably important to some folks. If you’re seeking an ADHD evaluation for yourself, your child, or your teen, we recommend Dr. Lee. Not only does she bring her extensive clinical background, but she also has lived experience of being diagnosed with ADHD later in life. This combination of person and professional understanding is rare to find in an ADHD testing provider.

  • Credentials: Licensed Psychologist #023213, Certified School Psychologist

  • Specialty Areas: ADHD, autism, academic/psychoeducational evaluations, neuropsychological evaluations


Nourished Roots Nutrition Counseling

Good fit for ADHD-affirming nutrition counseling

Their team of registered dietitians provides neurodivergent-affirming nutrition counseling that can help people with ADHD navigate the sensory and executive functioning challenges that can make food, eating, and body image feel overwhelming.

  • Specialty Areas: Neurodivergence, eating disorders, disordered eating

 

What sets our practice apart from other Brooklyn ADHD therapy providers

  • Neurodivergent-affirming care: We celebrate how your brain works, rather than trying to "fix" it.

  • Clinicians with lived experience: Our therapists don't just understand ADHD academically or intellectually—some of us live it.

  • Diverse team, diverse fee options: Our clinicians bring a range of specialties and experiences so you can find support that fits what you’re going through.

  • Hybrid meeting options: We offer in-person sessions in Brooklyn and Manhattan, plus virtual sessions across New York.

  • No waitlist: You can start getting support now, not months from now.

  • Collaborative, trauma-informed approach: We bring your whole history and experience into the room, not just a checklist of symptoms.

 

What to expect from the therapy process

Step 1: Free consultation call

We start with a brief complimentary call so you can share what's bringing you to therapy, ask any questions you have, and make sure that we’re the right fit before committing.

Step 2: Your first session

Your first session is all about getting to know your history, your current experience, and your goals. This is a collaborative conversation that lays the foundation for our work together.

Step 3: Ongoing, personalized support

From there, we meet regularly to develop skills and insight that actually stick. Therapy is always tailored to your unique pace and how your brain is wired.

 

FAQs about ADHD therapy

  • ADHD looks different for everyone, and it's often missed or misunderstood—especially in those assigned female at birth and adults who've spent years masking. Some common signs include:

    • Difficulty staying focused or finishing tasks

    • Feeling overwhelmed by everyday demands

    • Forgetfulness, disorganization, or trouble with time management

    • Emotional dysregulation or intense mood swings

    • Restlessness, impulsivity, or a racing mind

    • Chronic feelings of underachievement despite effort

    If several of these resonate with you, a therapist can help you make sense of your experience, whether or not you have a formal diagnosis.

  • Nope! You don't need a formal diagnosis to start therapy with us. Many clients come in feeling like something is "off" but haven't yet been evaluated. We're happy to work with you wherever you are in that process, and we can help connect you with a clinical psychologist if that feels like the right next step.

  • No, we don't offer formal neuropsychological testing or evaluations in-house. However, we can refer you to trusted providers in the New York area who do, and we're happy to work alongside any evaluator you're already seeing.

  • Yes! Anna Chapman offers in-person sessions at our Brooklyn location. We also have a Manhattan office and offer virtual therapy across New York, so there are plenty of ways to access support regardless of your schedule or neighborhood.

  • Our ADHD therapists work with a wide range of ages. Anna sees both children and adults, while Jenna specializes in teens and young adults. If you're unsure whether we're the right fit for you or your loved one, reach out for a free consultation call.

  • ADHD therapy goes beyond learning basic tips to help with executive functioning, though it can include that. Working with a therapist can help you:

    • Understand how your brain works and why certain things feel so hard

    • Develop personalized coping strategies for focus, time management, and emotional regulation

    • Address the anxiety, shame, or low self-esteem that often coexist with ADHD

    • Improve your relationships and communication

    • Build self-compassion and a stronger sense of identity

    The goal isn't to make you "neurotypical,” but rather to help you build a life that works for you instead of against you.

  • Yes, ADHD therapy is typically covered by insurance. EveryBody Psychotherapy NYC is a private-pay practice, which means we don't bill insurance directly. However, we can provide a superbill (a detailed receipt) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
