Featuring Carey Heller, PsyD

Being a dad is demanding enough—but when you add ADHD into the mix, the challenges can multiply quickly. From emotional ups and downs to struggles with organization or follow-through, ADHD can quietly shape everything from family routines to how fathers are able to connect with their children. Yet with the right tools and mindset, these same challenges can become opportunities for stronger relationships and more confident parenting.

Carey Heller, PsyD, dives into practical strategies for fathers with ADHD—how to recognize what’s getting in the way, use effective interventions, and find support that truly fits. Dr. Heller shares insights on building structure without rigidity, managing stress, and discovering the strengths that come with the ADHD brain. He offers real-world advice and resources that can help dads move from frustration to confidence.
