ADHD Therapist in Sacramento and Neurodivergence Counseling
When you work with an experienced ADHD therapist, you gain a supporting ear who understands how your attention, energy, and reactions function in your daily life. Many adults with ADHD have spent years trying systems that were never built for them, often internalizing frustration when those systems inevitably fail. Therapy focuses on understanding those patterns and finding approaches that fit how you operate.
At Embrace Therapy, we offer ADHD and neurodivergence counseling for adults across Sacramento and throughout California. We support people who are mentally overloaded, struggle to follow through, feel chronically burnt out, or carry the emotional impact of years spent over-compensating.

What Is ADHD and Neurodivergence Counseling?
ADHD counseling focuses on how attention, motivation, emotional reactivity, and stress responses show up in everyday situations. Many adults describe a mind that rarely slows down, difficulty transitioning between tasks, or feeling exhausted by constant mental effort. Therapy helps clarify what is happening and why. Sessions often involve identifying long-standing coping strategies, understanding how they developed, and deciding which ones still serve you. Therapy also addresses the emotional side of ADHD, including self-criticism, shame, and the strain that can build when expectations never seem to align with capacity.
Therapy That Adapts to How Your Brain Works
ADHD looks different from person to person. Some clients want help with follow-through or organization. Others come in because they feel depleted, disconnected, or stuck in cycles that keep repeating. Therapy adjusts to what is most relevant for you rather than following a rigid formula. Sessions are collaborative and grounded. We look closely at what actually happened between sessions and use that information to refine strategies. The work focuses on reducing unnecessary pressure and building systems that support stability rather than constant effort.
Thinking Beyond ADHD Symptoms
Many adults with ADHD also deal with anxiety, relationship strain, or the long-term effects of stress and earlier experiences. Some were diagnosed later in life, while others learned to push through difficulties by overcompensating. Over time, those patterns can become exhausting and stop working as they were originally intended. Our therapy sessions focus on identifying which habits and responses are still useful and which ones now create more friction than support, so adjustments can be made.
"Sometimes we reach a point where we know something needs to change, but we're not sure what or how. Therapy creates slowly unfolding change without pressure or force."
Meet Our ADHD Therapist: Vik Singh, LMFT
Vik Singh, LMFT, provides virtual therapy for adults across California. He works with clients who want therapy to feel practical, respectful, and grounded in real life rather than abstract theory.
Vik supports adults navigating ADHD, mental overload, difficulty following through, and burnout related to being constantly mentally "on." He also works with relationship dynamics, communication challenges, attachment patterns, and the lingering impact of earlier experiences that still shape daily reactions.
His approach draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions balance reflection with practical tools that can be applied outside the therapy room. A typical session begins with a brief check-in, followed by a focused look at what life looked like between sessions. Together, you evaluate what helped, what did not, and what needs adjustment. Sessions often end with clear next steps and optional homework when it feels useful.
Clients often describe Vik as calm, patient, and genuinely engaged. He treats clients as equals and respects that they are the experts on their own experience.
Vik sees clients virtually only. Sessions are $220 and are typically scheduled weekly unless otherwise discussed.
A Practical and Collaborative Therapy Style
ADHD therapy benefits from structure that feels supportive rather than restrictive. Sessions are organized enough to feel grounding while staying flexible. Work may focus on communication, boundaries, avoidance patterns, or reducing mental overload through practical changes. Some sessions focus on skill-building. Others focus on understanding emotional responses or relationship dynamics that contribute to stress. The balance shifts as needs change.
Make An AppointmentWhy Consistency Matters in ADHD Therapy
Regular sessions help create continuity when attention and motivation fluctuate. Consistency provides a place to recalibrate, reflect, and adjust strategies over time. Many clients notice improved emotional regulation and greater confidence in decision-making as therapy progresses. The goal is not to remove ADHD traits but to develop a more workable relationship with them.

Applying Therapy to Daily Life
Therapy is most useful when it shows up in everyday moments. That might involve pausing instead of spiralling when overwhelmed, communicating limits more clearly, or designing routines that match your energy instead of draining it. The focus stays on changes that feel realistic rather than idealised.
