ADHD Therapy for Men

  • Dream it.

    Common Symptoms of ADHD in Men

    While ADHD looks different for everyone, men often notice challenges such as:

    Difficulty focusing or following through on tasks

    Restlessness or feeling “always on the go”

    Impulsivity, such as interrupting or making quick decisions without thinking

    Struggles with time management and organization

    Forgetfulness, like missing appointments or misplacing items

    Trouble managing emotions, especially frustration or irritability

    Feeling overwhelmed at work, home, or in relationships

  • Build it.

    Understanding ADHD in Men

    Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects people of all ages and genders, but men often experience it in unique ways. Many men grow up believing they just need to “try harder” or “be more disciplined,” when in reality, ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition—not a lack of willpower. Left untreated, ADHD can impact work performance, relationships, self-esteem, and overall wellbeing.

  • Grow it.

    When It’s a Good Idea to Seek Therapy

    Therapy can be especially helpful if ADHD symptoms are starting to interfere with daily life. Consider reaching out for support if you notice:

    Constant stress or burnout from work or school demands

    Strain in personal or family relationships

    Low motivation or difficulty finishing important tasks

    Ongoing feelings of frustration, guilt, or underachievement

    Using unhealthy coping strategies, such as avoidance or substance use

    If ADHD is making you feel stuck, isolated, or discouraged, therapy offers a safe space to find relief and new strategies.

Meet Your ADHD Therapist, Trent Pierson

Hi there, thanks for stopping by!

I know that starting therapy can feel intimidating, and I’m honored that you’re considering sharing part of your story with me. My goal is to create an approachable and judgement‑free space where every client feels seen, heard and supported.

I’m thrilled to share my years of experience helping adults and teens navigate ADHD, anxiety, depression and major life transitions. I’m especially passionate about working with adults who were recently diagnosed with ADHD, because I understand how confusing and isolating that can feel. Together we’ll unpack what’s been holding you back, build practical strategies and celebrate progress, one day at a time. I also enjoy supporting clients as they cultivate self‑worth, find motivation and move toward their goals.

My approach is laid back and collaborative: I see therapy as a partnership where you are the expert on your own life. We’ll work at your pace, focusing on what matters most to you. I draw from evidence‑based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), executive functioning counseling and mindfulness‑based strategies to equip you with tools that fit your unique needs, while always keeping compassion and humor in the room.

Outside of the office, I’m an adopted Birmingham local who loves spending time with my family, coaching my kid's sports teams, reading fantasy novels, playing video games and cheering on the LA Dodgers (GO DODGERS!). I believe in the power of small steps and genuine connection, and I’m here to help you create meaningful change that lasts.

If you’re ready to start your journey or just have questions, I’d love to meet you.

How Therapy Can Help

Counseling provides practical tools and emotional support for navigating ADHD. In therapy, men often work on:

  • Building focus and organization skills – creating personalized systems for managing time, tasks, and responsibilities

  • Improving emotional regulation – learning healthy ways to handle stress, anger, and frustration

  • Strengthening relationships – developing better communication and connection with partners, family, and coworkers

  • Boosting self-confidence – reframing negative self-talk and recognizing strengths

  • Exploring identity and goals – finding clarity and direction beyond ADHD challenges

Therapy can also help men let go of the pressure to “fix it on their own” and instead develop tools that create long-term success.
