Question 2

Can I see a therapist for ADHD without a diagnosis?

Accepted Answer

Waiting on a formal diagnosis can feel like standing in line before you are allowed to get help. You can talk with a licensed therapist about what you are noticing without one, and ask whether they think an evaluation would be useful. On Alma, filter therapists in Pleasanton who treat ADHD and read profiles for how each one works.

Question 3

What type of therapy is often used for ADHD?

Question 7

Can I see a therapist for ADHD from home?

Question 8

How many sessions will I need for ADHD?

Accepted Answer

Wanting a number makes sense when you are planning around money and a busy schedule.

In Alma's Pleasanton directory, filter therapists who treat ADHD and ask about session frequency before you book.

Question 9

What if the first therapist is not the right fit?
