    Justin “ADHD Therapist Jay” Gillespie returns to share how his practice evolved from a 14-clinician operation to a tight-knit “training ground” for ADHD-focused care—and why smaller has actually meant better. He and Paula dig into why so many ADHD and neurodiversity trainings miss the mark, and Justin’s bold plan to build a more rigorous, lived-experience-informed ADHD certification for clinicians. Justin also opens up about parenting with ADHD and autism, from sensory surprises to alligator-roll diaper changes, and how that work has reshaped his clinical focus on supporting neurodivergent parents. They get candid about running family businesses with their spouses, navigating communication, trust, and executive functioning in love and work. Justin and Paula also highlight a necessary conversation about alcohol and substance use in social work and the ADHD community, inviting listeners to reflect on their own coping habits and what “getting your $h!t together” really looks like.


    In this episode, you will hear:

    • shifting practice direction
    • professional themes in ADHD care
    • parenthood and partnership
    • books and future work
    • insurance and business
    • well-being

She identifies some daily root causes that contribute to our mental overload and ways that it impacts our mental health and wellness. Paula also provides examples of how societal and cultural contexts contribute to why things can pile up in our minds, as well as why conversations about using brain dumping as a tool aren't readily explored.

    + mental overload and definition
    + why brain dumping can help
    + cultural context in real time
    + practice boundaries
