BIPOC Clinicians With ADHD

Professional online group consultation sessions

Are you struggling to manage your practice while also managing your ADHD symptoms?

Do you wish you had a space where fellow BIPOC clinicians just ‘get’ your specific struggles?

Imagine a community where you can swap war stories and tangible tools—a space that affirms your challenges and empowers you to thrive in the midst of the chaos.

This group is designed to help BIPOC clinicians find new ways to manage ADHD while honoring their strengths and cultural experiences.

You don’t have to carry it all alone.

This might be the right group for you if...

You’re a BIPOC therapist (Black/African American, Asian, Latinx, Indigenous, Middle Eastern, Southeast Asian, Pacific Islander, or Mixed Race) looking for a space where your identity is seen and supported.
You’ve been feeling alone in managing your ADHD (whether formally diagnosed or not) and you are looking for a safe space to talk about the challenges you face.
You are exhausted from putting up a front that everything is alright when you are swimming in chaos.
You thrive in community and you know you learn best and feel inspired from seeing others who are doing what you aspire to do.

Sessions are virtual and open to licensed clinicians nationwide.

The Overlap Is Real

The weight of being a clinician of color can be heavy. You walk into professional spaces and realize—once again—you’re the only one who looks like you. You feel the pressure to represent your whole community, and fear that your practice is being more closely scrutinized than your peers’.

Now add ADHD on top of that.

You’re treating clients with ADHD, but haven’t even had time to manage your own. Planning, prioritizing, organizing, staying on top of your workload feels overwhelming. And these familiar ADHD challenges hit differently when you’re also a therapist: someone who’s expected to show up, hold space, and keep it all together.

It’s more than professional, it’s personal: navigating racial trauma on top of neurodivergence, managing the mental load of code-switching, masking, and trying not to fall behind.

And private practice? That can be one of the loneliest places to be.

This group was designed to speak directly to those struggles. Led by Dr. Shauna Pollard, a psychologist and ADHD specialist, it offers support for BIPOC clinicians with ADHD who need a place to be seen, heard, and supported. Through connection, shared tools, and affirming community, we’ll help you move beyond just surviving, to building a practice that fits your brain, your identity, and your life.

What Others Are Saying...

Yeah, I think immediately, just making the commitment to myself, [designating] some time, [designating] some finances to something that's been so challenging - that felt really good. In terms of successes, I really appreciated the comradery in the group. The me too, I get it- you’re not alone. And right away, I would say in the first minute, I was already like OMG this was like so impactful. I think you were talking about the ADHD tax and thinking about what has been the cost of this ADHD being unaddressed. I even shared it with my brother. And he ended up getting connected with an ADHD Coach.

It was phenomenal, it exceed expectations. In part because there was structure, but also some room to be able to explore what it was that needed to come up.

I think, uh, the importance of what it means to have habits. And understanding habits that serve you and habits that don’t serve you. What it means to establish habits to support goals. I’m not just going to feel like doing notes. That’s never going to be a thing. So I need structure and habits. Having a place amongst likeminded people and people with similar experiences.

Looking for tools and things that make the whole process of what it means to be a therapist easier. Has a keyboard. Has a wireless mouse. What is going to help me be most comfortable. Giving more thought. What’s going to optimize how I function and work. This conversation around notes. My attention is always going to want to be pulled. I feel more successful with it [Notes].

Notes are going to be an ongoing thing that you just have to engage with. This is a way to make notes less daunting. It’s not going to solve everything, but hopefully it will provide some solutions and techniques and ways to reimagine how you engage with your notes. Because that’s what has happened for me.

The fact that this group existed… This group was made for me. Tailored and specialized.

The fact that it existed gave new life and hope and normalization to the wacky ways that my brain works and the marginalization experiences that are part of being a clinician of color, but also intersecting with ADHD.

Thank you for all the insight, wisdom and support from the group....I've tackled my massive charting backlog of 230+ notes!! You all were instrumental in my getting my notes done--so thank you!! I think the biggest game changers were the collective support and energy of this group, accountability plan w/ my therapist and co-working!

Hi, I'm Dr. P!

I didn’t get diagnosed with ADHD until after I’d finished my PhD dissertation (all 200+ pages of it). That diagnosis brought a flood of emotions: relief, guilt, hope, resentment. But mostly, it helped me make sense of a brain I’d been trying to wrangle my whole life.

I’ve always known I was wired a little differently. I was constantly losing things, getting locked out of my place, starting things with a burst of energy and struggling to circle back. I got in trouble for talking too much & sometimes I noticed people zoning out when I felt I still had so much left to say (grrr).

Learning about ADHD through both my clinical training and through the eyes of my clients, helped me stop fighting my brain and start working with it. I came to appreciate my hyperfocus, my ability to connect ideas quickly, my excitement to do ALL the things.

I learned (and I continue to learn) how to live alongside my ADHD. I am aware of many of the ways that it shows up and I’m happy to let it work for me when I can. I also work to keep my areas of struggle in check.

These days, I’m not only a clinical psychologist. I’m also an entrepreneur with a small team working to support my business. I love that I get to help people & do it on my terms and I want to show you how you can thrive with ADHD too!
