ADHD Therapy for Adults & Teens Across Colorado
At Grounded Light Counseling, we help adults and teens across Colorado learn how to work with their ADHD — not against it.
Through online therapy, we’ll explore the patterns behind distraction, overwhelm, and mental fatigue, and help you create structure, confidence, and self-understanding that lasts.
ADHD doesn’t mean you’re broken or incapable. It simply means your brain works differently — and once you learn how to harness its strengths, you can find the calm focus you’ve been chasing for years.
Understanding ADHD Beyond the Labels
You’ve probably spent years hearing messages like “just try harder” or “you’re so smart, why can’t you focus?”
It’s exhausting — and it’s not the full story.
ADHD is about regulation, not laziness. It impacts how your mind organizes, prioritizes, and transitions between tasks. For many, it also affects emotions — leading to frustration, guilt, or shame after a day of trying to keep up.
At Grounded Light Counseling, we help you understand the real mechanics of ADHD: the nervous system patterns that make focus fluctuate, emotions intensify, and motivation feel inconsistent.
Once you can see your brain clearly, everything else starts to make sense.
What ADHD Therapy Can Help With
ADHD therapy is practical and personalized. We’ll focus on the parts of your life that feel the most overwhelming and create tools that fit your real routines — not someone else’s system.
Common challenges we address:
Constant mental “noise” or racing thoughts
Difficulty following through on projects or goals
Emotional impulsivity or sensitivity
Struggles with time management or organization
Feeling “all or nothing” with energy and focus
Therapy can help you:
Build realistic systems for consistency
Develop self-awareness around triggers and burnout cycles
Strengthen emotional regulation and resilience
Rebuild trust in your ability to follow through
Feel calmer, clearer, and more capable day to day
Our Approach — CBT for ADHD and Emotional Regulation
Our ADHD therapy process is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — a research-backed approach that connects thoughts, emotions, and actions.
With CBT, you’ll learn to recognize unhelpful thought loops (like “I’ll never get it together”) and replace them with insight and strategy.
We’ll explore how perfectionism, shame, and self-doubt often show up for ADHD minds — and practice tools that help you regulate instead of react.
We also integrate mindfulness and body-based awareness, helping you slow down enough to notice what’s really happening before burnout or self-criticism takes over.
ADHD and Emotional Burnout
ADHD and burnout often go hand in hand.
Many of our clients describe living in cycles of intense productivity followed by complete shutdown — what we call the “crash and scramble.”
Through therapy, you’ll learn to spot early signs of depletion, understand how your nervous system responds to pressure, and create a sustainable rhythm between rest and drive.
When you learn how to regulate your energy — not fight it — you unlock the balance that helps you show up consistently without losing yourself in the process.
Why ADHD Therapy Online Works
Because all sessions at Grounded Light Counseling are held virtually, therapy fits into your life — not the other way around.
Online therapy for ADHD allows you to meet from your own space, where you’re most comfortable and less distracted by the logistics of getting somewhere.
We use evidence-based strategies that work just as effectively through telehealth as they do in person, giving you the flexibility to learn, grow, and stay accountable wherever you are in Colorado.
Inclusive & Affirming Care
ADHD doesn’t exist in isolation — it intersects with identity, environment, and life experience.
Our practice provides affirming therapy for neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and all marginalized communities. We understand how cultural, systemic, and societal pressures impact emotional regulation and focus — and we create space where all identities are seen and supported.
