I'm Jeanmarie Roberts, psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner and doctor of behavioral health. I work with many different types of clients — depression, anxiety, PTSD, among others — and the common denominator seems to be wanting to be back to the way they used to be, to be "normal."

My goal is to help people live their best lives, and working with my clients is truly an honor. So I would like to invite you to schedule an appointment with me, and we will walk your journey together.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

My go-to approach for helping people in ADHD therapy is to use The New Attention Deficit for Adults Workbook by Lynn Weiss, PHD. Dr. Weiss uses a positive, brain diversity approach that emphasized the amazing abilities of those with this type of brain while providing practical ways to deal with things that might be challenging to that particular person.
I teach clients in ADHD therapy to value and affirm their gifts, while learning skills to manage practical challenges.
I know when a client is making meaningful progress in ADHD therapy when the client affirms themself in a more positive light and expresses more ease of management of their particular challenges.
Clients can supplement their time in ADHD therapy with using Dr. Weiss's workbook, doing work between sessions.
To prepare for their first ADHD therapy session, an individual can take some time to think about their particular challenges, how the challenge effects their career/relationship/self esteem, and prepare themselves to do the homework.
At Thriveworks, we offer ADHD therapy, which is an effective treatment for managing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms such as inattention, inability to sit still, and lack of self-control. It can be used as an alternative to ADHD medication or used in tandem.
ADHD therapy works by using behavioral interventions — focusing on helping the individual develop organization skills, improve time management, and work on adaptive behaviors. A range of therapies are effective in helping people manage their ADHD and, sometimes, both individual and family therapy are important, particularly when the individual with ADHD symptoms is a child.
Common symptoms of ADHD include:
ADHD is not a coping mechanism—but is instead affected by both genetics and environmental factors. The skilled therapists at Thriveworks in Asheville, NC know how to treat the unique triggers and stressors that may influence the severity of someone’s ADHD symptoms.
Yes—many individuals with ADHD live successful, ‘normal’ lives. Individuals with ADHD are not abnormal.
Common approaches to ADHD therapy include medication management, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral therapy, psychoeducation, and parent training.
ADHD counseling is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability.
The length of ADHD therapy can differ based on individual requirements and treatment objectives, spanning from a few weeks to several months or extending further, contingent on progress and personal needs.
At Thriveworks Counseling in Asheville, NC, we understand the challenges faced by individuals with ADHD and offer comprehensive assessments and treatments to help manage symptoms effectively. If you or your child are experiencing difficulties that might be related to ADHD, don’t hesitate to contact us for a professional evaluation. Call us today at Thriveworks Counseling to schedule your appointment.
