Dr. Kim Kensington, PsyD
You may be here because of one of these
Procrastination★ Disorganization★ Loads of unfinished projects★ Inertia★ Overwhelm★ Difficulty making decisions★ Constant rushing★ Frequent late fees★ Financial problems★ Fear that your life is a house of cards★ Worry you're not living up to your potential★ Time blindness★ Starting everything, finishing nothing★ Shame spirals★ Perimenopause & ADHD★ AuDHD★ Concerned friends and family★ Existential dread about all of it
I'm not going to tell you to try harder. That's not how this works.

I'm a licensed psychologist in California who specializes in adult ADHD — and I have it myself. The inattentive kind. The low-energy, hard-to-start, everything-takes-forever kind.

So when you tell me your brain won't cooperate, I'm not diagnosing you. I'm nodding.

My approach is practical, short-term, and genuinely fun when possible. We focus on where you want to go — not on endlessly rehashing how you got here.

Chemistry is real. Spend 3 minutes with me here — if it feels right, reach out. If it doesn't, no hard feelings. That's the point.

Sound like you?

I work well with people who are smart, self-aware, and a little tired of being told to "just make a to-do list."
