At Fava Counseling, we provide help for parents of ADHD kids in Atlanta.
Have one or more of your kids been diagnosed with ADHD or another diagnosis?
If your child is struggling with an ADHD diagnosis, or if you suspect your child may have ADHD, we are here to help.
Parenting a child with ADHD can leave you feeling tired, frustrated, and alone
These behaviors increase the challenges of parenting kids with ADHD, and can lead parents to feel extremely frustrated and alone, wondering why none of the mainstream parenting advice they are trying is helpful.
Kids who are constantly corrected or criticized for their misbehavior may begin to feel helpless to change and may struggle with shame and low self-esteem.
Learning effective tools to parent an ADHD child can increase your child’s ability to manage their emotions and responses, and can lead to increased confidence and cooperation.

Meet Kristen Sessoms
As an adult who has been diagnosed with ADHD, I have studied and learned different approaches that effectively assist in the day-to-day functioning of ADHD. I am currently in my last semester of the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Master’s program at Colorado Christian University (a CACREP Accredited program), and am practicing under supervision of Liz Fava, LPC, CPCS.
