If you’ve been told you’re gifted — but you’ve had to work twice as hard to keep up — you might not be lazy or broken.
You might be neurodivergent.
I specialize in adult ADHD care that’s practical, humane, and not rushed.
What I mean by “ADHD care”
I’m not here to put you through endless testing.
We’ll do a focused assessment, talk through your real life, and get clear on whether ADHD is part of the picture.
If it is, we’ll build a treatment plan that helps you function with more ease and less shame.
What you can expect
- Validation and a framework that makes sense
- Practical strategies that fit how your brain works
- Careful medication support when appropriate
- Attention to sleep, anxiety, depression, and the way stress hits an ADHD nervous system
Important note on autism
I’m comfortable working with people who have autism traits, but I don’t offer formal autism diagnostic testing. That kind of comprehensive testing is usually done by a neuropsychologist.
What my patients are saying
I don’t admire many people, as you know, Dr Goldman, and I truly dislike most doctors. You’re the first doctor I have ever admired.
Always available when needed and easy to schedule appointments.
I’ve been under psychiatric care for 25 years across a range of doctors, Dr Goldman is by far the best psychiatrist I’ve ever had. Her devotion and commitment to my care is beyond what I ever would have expected from a psychiatrist before I started working with her. I’ve always felt that a large part of my mental health is done alone, I’m in charge of where I am and what’s working or what’s not. I was surprised to find with Dr Goldman that’s not true. I learned that a great psychiatrist is a partner, the best and most knowledgeable one could ever have. With Dr Goldman I’m no longer alone in my struggles, I have her with me 24 hours a day. The impact of her support is something I might never really be able to fully measure, because it continues to unfold and shape my future every single day.
Dr Goldman took the time over the course of many months to find an optimal medication regimen, which has kept me stable for years.
Dr Goldman has been a critical component of my health care team. In addition to being an excellent provider for her areas of expertise she has provided high quality referrals for issues outside her domain.
I think of you and how grateful I am for all that have done for me.
Dr Lisa, Thank you so much for all the information. I truly love working with you, and I have never met a doctor that goes as far as you do with your patients.
Dr Goldman is an excellent communicator and focused listener. I feel comfortable talking about any personal or medical topic with her, and she is well trained and experienced in her work. She knows my personal history and understands what I have been through. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she gives focused attention to my concerns. I feel Dr Goldman gives me the exact amount of time and care that I need. She is truly a wonderful and caring physician.
