Adult ADHD
More than one in ten adults have been diagnosed with ADHD. Rest assured – you are not alone. At Louisville ADHD, we will help you realize your full potential in a relaxed, judgment-free setting.
When people hear “Attention Deficit Disorder,” many times they feel it doesn’t describe them. After all, they can focus for hours on things that interest them.
The issue isn’t a deficit of attention, rather, a regulation of attention. This more appropriately describes the spectrum.
In adults, ADHD can manifest itself in many different ways, most of which can cause a lot of trouble at home, work or school.
Symptoms of ADHD in adults:
- Difficulty paying attention
- Difficulty concentrating
- Difficulty staying on task
- Anger
- Impulsivity
- Disorganization
- Procrastination
- Forgetfulness
- Poor time management
- Anxiety
- Depression
On one end of the spectrum, some have difficulty paying attention to one thing and staying on task. The smallest distraction can lead them away from the task at hand, such as deciding to shoot basketball when they should be packing the car for their trip in the morning.
On the other end of the spectrum, many adults will become so hyper-focused on the task at hand that they completely “zone out.” They forget their other responsibilities, such as picking up the kids or remembering when they said they were going to be home for dinner.
Wherever you may be on the spectrum, it may cause a great deal of issues in personal relationships or occupational success.
The good news is it IS possible to be free of distractions and forgetfulness and reach your full potential. Dr. Walker has treated thousands of adult ADHD patients, and can do the same for you.

Our Process
Step 1:
Evaluation Of Needs
Each patient starts with an initial consultation with Dr. Walker so we can better understand your needs. Interviewing the patient and (when appropriate) the family helps us establish a complete picture of the patient’s health. Whether you’re pre or post diagnosis, we’ll assess your unique situation and suggest the next steps.
Step 2:
Personalized Care Plan
After the initial consultation and taking into account your health history, we’ll develop a personalized care plan based on your unique needs. On a case by case basis, this may include testing and diagnosis, ongoing therapy sessions, and/or medication management.
Step 3:
Ongoing Support
As a therapist and a psychiatrist, Dr. Walker can develop an ongoing treatment plan unlike most traditional models. This includes professional development services, parent coaching, habits coaching, organizational therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy and more.

Patient
Like many, the pandemic gave me time to reflect, and I began to suspect that I had ADHD – something that had likely been affecting me for most of my life.
After over a year of research and discussions with my husband and business partner, I finally made an appointment with Dr. Walker. From that first visit, it was an incredible relief to realize that I wasn’t just failing at life – there was an explanation, and more importantly, a way forward.

Patient
Dr. Walker’s ADHD program combined with the medication has been very effective in improving my life with ADHD.
I appreciate that his program isn’t a ” here take this medication” and is instead uses medication+self accountability approach.
I look forward to seeing more improvements in my life as I get better applying what I learn from him in my life.
