What made you want to join the ADHD Online team?

My favorite part of working for ADHDonline is seeing patients’ lives improved. Medications work very successfully and I love hearing so many comments from my parents about how their lives improved, they are doing so much better in all aspects of their lives, that “treatment is life changing “, they “only wish they started treatment earlier”. I also have very close friends and family who have positive experience with medications. I also recognize the importance of overall life style for management of any chronic condition, including mental health issues. I am passionate about motivating and encouraging my patients to continually improve their health in all aspects, including diet, exercise, sleep and overall well-being.

Curious about stimulant or non-stimulant approaches?

If you’re navigating ADHD or other mental health challenges, you have options. At Mentavi Health / ADHD Online, we assess what works for you. 
Some may start with non-medicated approaches like coaching or therapy.  In other cases, patients may explore medication treatment paths when warranted by diagnosis. For some diagnosed with ADHD, the treatment clinician may work with the patient to determine if stimulant approaches work best for them. Stimulant approaches are certain medications under medical treatment that are generally Class II controlled substances. Non-stimulant options are another approach that can work for many.  Medication approaches can be used in tandem with coaching or therapy. 
 
The key is starting with our diagnostic evaluation, which is reviewed by a qualified healthcare professional. Getting clarity on what you’re experiencing is the first step toward feeling more in control. From there, you and your treatment team can determine the best path—whether that’s coaching, therapy, medication, or a combination that works for your life. 
 
If you’re not feeling right, let us walk alongside you by starting with the diagnostic evaluation.
There may be a brief delay in service today between 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM ET. Thank you for your patience — we look forward to assisting you shortly.
