Read my full bio
I help women with ADHD — women who, like me, can’t figure out how to get dinner on the table every night, whose house is in constant chaos, and who live in chronic overwhelm.
I see women like you who are still struggling, looking for help — a different kind of help. You are searching for connections and to be understood. You’re looking for answers to questions like: Why is this so hard? How do I get to work on time? How do I make a holiday dinner. Women all over the world have been reaching out to me because they know I’ve been there. I live it. I get it…

I can help you…

  • “I found Terry’s suggestions and advice much more helpful than advice offered by well-intended doctors. Terry offers concrete, usable advice from someone who truly understands the struggle.”

    JANE

  • “Terry provides down-to-earth, practical support + strategies. She believes it’s ok to not do things like everyone else. I have her quote: “do something, not because I have to, but because I can,” on my phone to help me each day.”

    MINDY

  • “Terry is a tireless advocate for people with ADHD — backed up by a wealth of practical information, knowledge of the latest research, and sound advice for coping with this chronic disorder.”

    DR. STEVEN J. CERESNIE

  • “Terry is always there if we need help or information.”

    LAURA
  • Terry Matlen is the real deal. As a school psychologist, a mother of an ADHD son and as am ADHD woman, her book, “The Queen of Distraction“, changed my life. She explains the symptoms of ADHD in women that most women don’t know or understand.
     
    I always believed that I was alone and somewhat eccentric because of my sensitivity to noise and light, and this book helped me realize that this is a common symptom of women with ADHD. The book helped me negotiate life with my family and my career.
     
    Disorganization and lack of planning plagued me throughout my life, but after reading this book, I was able to understand why I was functioning the way I was, and it gave me the strategies to become a more successful adult. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is struggling with issues that may be related to ADHD but not diagnosed or diagnosed incorrectly.
