ADHD & Neurodivergent Support Services
Unique minds require
unique solutions.
“You have so much potential…
…if only you applied yourself!”
This phrase that often echos in the ears of neurodivergent youth, and in the minds of their caregivers, can haunt you when you don’t understand HOW to “do better” or “try harder.” Your child or teen may even already have a diagnosis and medication but there continues to be challenges that get in their way. You might feel hopeless, frustrated, or a little crazy: What else are we supposed to do!?
The unique challenges and strengths that come with ADHD, Twice-Exceptionalism, High IQ youth, and Learning Differences require unique support from those who understand what you’re working with. We pride ourselves in our expertise in knowing all about what ADHD is, what is it NOT, and what the next steps are to help your child thrive.
Neurodivergent challenges are real and often confusing in their variability. It is hard for everyone involved when a child or teen has moments of success surrounded by trouble, trips at the finish line, or is inconsistent with their smarts and capabilities. Avoidance of work, social challenges, emotional explosions, procrastination, disorganization, boredom, late nights with a mountain of work to do, dreaded transitions, and infamous screen-time… These are tough challenges that many families with neurodivergent kids and teens face - challenges that we can help teach you how to handle.
Having a different brain isn’t all bad! At Verity, we love neurodivergent brains and all their energy, creativity, determination, and spunk! We focus on your child and family’s strengths and build new skills to make a difference.

How we can help
Having a brain that’s different is hard enough as it is, and yet it so often comes with experiences of intense worry and perfectionism, low self esteem and hopelessness, or anger at yourself and others that is too hard to manage on your own. Friendships can be more complicated too, not to mention life at home. Verity’s Social-Emotional Support services for neurodivergent kids, teens, and families understands all of this and has the tools to help you feel better.
Organization, prioritization, staying on task - these are hallmark challenges of ADHD and also the increased expectations in middle and high school.
Our Executive Functioning Coaching can help you with strategies and support to get you back on track. Learn skills you’ll actually use and remember. We offer creative solutions that work with your brain, your strengths, and your skills to forge a path forward.
ADHD is SO much more than just a kid who can’t focus or can’t sit still. Dr. Sarah Griest has pursued specialized and in-depth knowledge of the diagnosis throughout her education and career. Now she can share that knowledge with you! We love to answer all your questions and help your family move with confidence into your next steps.
Now that your child has been identified as having ADHD, you know WHAT is going on, and Dr. Sarah can help you (and them) understand the WHY’s:
Why can they focus on screens but not their homework?
Why won’t they finish what they started?
Why do they get so upset so quickly?
Why are they always full of excuses?
Why does my child give up so fast?
Why is ADHD so different for girls?
Why wasn’t my teen diagnosed younger?
Why do they always wait until the last possible minute to get things done?
Why do they only listen to me when I yell at them?
We can also help with the HOW’s:
How ADHD interacts with
Intelligence
Learning
Friendships
Extracurriculars
Other Diagnoses
Growing up
And, importantly: How you can best support them
