ADHD Therapists in Sacramento, CA

My name is Charis Gaston, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been in the mental health field for 15 years and have 10 years of clinical experience. Clients have told me I’m unlike other therapists, which I take as a compliment. I am passionate about helping others; I enjoy bringing my energy, clinical knowledge, and therapeutic toolbox to support clients in reaching their goals.

My name is Dr. Joseph Sands, and I am a Licensed Psychologist based in Los Angeles, California. I work with adolescents and adults with the following difficulties: sadness/depression, mood swings, anxiety (panic attacks), social phobias, poor social skills, OCD, impulsivity, anger problems, ADHD, autism, and relationship issues. I like to use a collaborative approach with my clients to help them best strategize to overcome the obstacles and meet their therapeutic goals. The clients I work with are currently seen in an outpatient setting and range from adolescents to middle-aged adults, with a variety of different challenges.

Being a parent can be hard. Being a wife, husband, or partner can be hard. The truth is sometime, just existing, can be challenging. If you are struggling and need support along the way, I am here to help. I am part of a group practice that specializes in maternal mental health and paternal mental health, and multi-ethnic/intercultural/inter-racial families. I am originally from the Philippines and provide services in Tagalog and Filipino. I work with individuals and parents who have young children and or those with teenagers, as well as singles who are navigating dating and career. I offer individual therapy and couple therapy.

I am passionate about helping deep feelers and thinkers (from children to adults) live a life of meaning and fulfillment by: learning strategies on how to manage emotions, cope with existential dread, navigate changing relational roles and identities, and build resiliency during times of uncertainty, transition, and stress. My empathetic nature plays a role in my therapeutic style. I collaboratively work with those who experience emotional instability due to to anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism, attachment injuries, heartbreak, CPTSD, and grief.

Do you often find yourself feeling overwhelmed, forgetful, & distracted? Getting through your day in an organized and timely manner feels like an insurmountable task. Others in your past may have unfairly labeled you as "lazy” or “irresponsible.” ADHD affects every part of someone's life: their health, career, relationships with others, and even the relationship they have with themselves. For BIPOC individuals, additional challenges arise due to cultural insensitivity and limited access to accurate information.

I offer both therapeutic and diagnostic services. In therapy, clients who benefit most are motivated to work toward change. They seek to improve their moods and progress toward their goals, whether related to relationships, careers, or health. I’m committed to a practice centered around empathy, caring, and acceptance. I believe establishing deep connections with clients leads to helping them achieve their goals. I also supervise an unlicensed psychologist who specializes in working with children and adolescents. She helps them improve family and peer interactions, handle emotional challenges, and master self-control.

My goal is to help individuals and families in crisis. I have 4 areas of passion. I love working with children, teenagers, and their parents. My second area of passion is working with narcissistic recovery and survivors of narcissistic relationships (both adults and children). Third, working with my clients to rewire their brains and change emotional reactions. I integrate experiential interventions, mindfulness, coping, and other tools in both individual adult and adolescent therapy. Finally, I enjoy neuropsychological and psychological assessments for all age groups.

Therapy can be a completely different experience depending on the people involved. My style of therapy involves getting to know my client and helping them use their strengths to improve their life. Often client's overlook their own strengths while identifying with their diagnosis, failings, or past. I am often amazed at the strength and resilience of individuals and look forward to helping them find it within themselves. In therapy the relationships between the clinician and client is the primary element toward improvement. I work hard to keep the relationship strong and growing.

I specialize in evaluations for children, adolescents and adults which can address a variety of issues such as: diagnosis of emotional issues, cognitive functioning, learning disabilities, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism, and personality styles.

Reaching out for help and support takes courage. Finding a therapist you trust and feel comfortable with is the first step to making positive changes in your life. My hope as a therapist is to provide a safe and comfortable space for you to heal from past or present pain, grow with self insight, and ultimately live a more enjoyable and meaningful life. I value and respect the differences in people and use a collaborative and non-judgmental approach when working with people.
