OVERVIEW
Treatment that builds skills, not just symptom control.
Whether through one-on-one coaching, neuropsychological assessment, or advanced cognitive training, we are committed to helping you live the rich and satisfying life you're capable of. A standard ADHD diagnosis often lacks the specificity to understand exactly what's causing inattentive behavior. Our ADHD treatment program combines comprehensive assessment, targeted coaching, individual therapy, and cognitive training — meeting the need of the moment for children, teens, and adults.
Whether you're a professional facing a high-stakes project or a student struggling to find rhythm, we help you map out details, prioritize tasks, and beat procrastination to the finish line.
OUR APPROACH
Evidence-based tools for the need of the moment.
We use a variety of evidence-based tools, tailored to what each client needs. Depending on your situation, ADHD treatment may draw on any combination of the following:
Neuropsychological Assessment
A standard ADHD diagnosis often lacks the specificity to understand exactly what is causing inattentive behavior. Our comprehensive assessment evaluates all cognitive domains.
- Executive Functioning: Testing planning, organization, and working memory.
- Differential Diagnosis: We rule out or identify co-existing issues such as mood disorders, sleep disturbances, learning disabilities, or post-concussion symptoms.
- IEP & School Accommodations: We provide the expert reporting necessary to secure Individualized Education Programs (IEP), 504 Plans, or accommodations for standardized testing (SAT/ACT).

Individual Therapy
ADHD looks different at every stage, so our individual therapy adapts to where each client is developmentally.
- For Children: We meet children where they are, incorporating play, art, and storytelling. Our therapy dogs, Sammy and Tucker, are available to help alleviate anxiety and make the therapeutic process feel natural and engaging.
- For Teens: The middle and high school years are a critical time for mental health. We focus on academic pressure, peer relationships, and identity issues using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
- For Adults: Adult ADHD often manifests as struggles with organization and career performance. We focus on practical strategies to improve daily functioning and address co-existing conditions like anxiety or depression.
COGMED
We believe that success in school and life stems not just from following innate passions, but from the ability to create meaning in tasks that may not inherently spark interest.
COGMED Working Memory Training, a post-concussion treatment, strengthens the cognitive foundation required for this kind of persistence and can be an effective ADHD treatment.
By targeting the brain’s underlying architecture — specifically, working memory — the program empowers clients to hold and manipulate information in real-time. This builds the capacity to sustain focused attention, manage impulses, and maintain the stamina necessary to bridge the gap between present effort and future goals.

Testimionials
In their own words.
Dr. Heafey has had an incredible positive impact on me. He was able to very quickly identify underlying causes for issues that my previous therapists had all missed, and we either focused on them in our sessions or he gave me referrals where appropriate. I've grown so much and function so much better thanks to all the effort he puts in. He cares deeply about his patients and will always go the extra mile for them.

Dr. Heafey and his team at Unfold Psychology is amazing. I have been working with Dr Heafey for 3 years now and it's completely changed the way I see myself and attitude towards life. The Executive functioning, run by Talia Prince was life changing. I was horrible at following through, staying motivated and life management. I noticed great change just after 6 months of the EF program. Talia is incredible and works harder for you than anyone has before. Highly recommend Unfold and the EF program for anyone struggling with life management.

Best therapist I've known. Helped me through my couple years of college and dealing with PTSD, relationships and anxiety. I am so grateful to know him and to have had him there for my care. He feels so safe and creates such a safe space for you to explore and express your emotions.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does therapy cost?
Session fees range from $225–$550 depending on the service. We are an out-of-network practice, which means we don’t bill insurance companies directly. Instead, we provide superbills to make that process easy, and most of our clients receive partial reimbursement through their insurance.
Do you accept insurance?
We are out-of-network with all insurance plans. Many of our clients use out-of-network benefits to get reimbursed for a significant portion of our fees. In 2025, our insurance specialist helped clients recover over $54,000 in insurance reimbursements — and that doesn’t include superbill submissions. We provide detailed superbills and can help you understand your benefits before you start.
Can I contact my therapist between sessions?
Yes! This is one of the many things that makes our practice different from traditional models. Even when your therapy visits end, the door remains open — you are always encouraged to give your clinician a call or a text. You will have direct access to your therapist, with calls returned within two hours. We are here for you.
How long will I be in therapy?
It varies. Some clients come for a specific issue and finish in a few months; others stay longer for ongoing support. We’ll talk about your goals early on and revisit them together as things shift.
Do you offer online therapy?
Yes — we offer private, secure telehealth sessions to residents anywhere in California, in addition to in-person sessions at our four Bay Area locations.
