Living Well with Now-Brain
ADHD support that’s practical, compassionate, and built around how your brain actually works.
ADHD isn’t just about productivity. It’s about shame, overwhelm, avoidance, sensitivity, and the loneliness of feeling like everyone else got an instruction manual you missed.
I help adults with ADHD build systems that work, calm overwhelmed nervous systems, and reconnect with their own sense of capability.
Why work with me?
I’m Benjamin “Binny” Kagedan, PsyD, a psychologist, somatic therapist, EMDR practitioner, and ADHD coach.
Sure, I’ve got training and clinical experience. But the real reason people work with me is that I understand ADHD from the inside.
I know the gap between being intelligent, creative, and deeply capable — and still struggling to answer emails, start tasks, keep track of life, or follow through on what matters most.
“Now-Brain” is a new term I came up with that depathologizes ADHD by describing it as a TYPE of brain, one of the many types found in nature. Like any other brain, it’s wonderful at some things, not great at other things. But not deficient nor disordered. In my view, this work is not about fixing yourself, but about learning how to love and and skillfully use the brain you have.
My approach combines teaching you about your brain and how it works, practical executive-function support, building somatic nervous-system regulation skills, learning how to take care of difficult feelings, and letting go of the shame and anxiety that has built up over years. The goal is not to turn you into someone else. It’s to help you design a life in which there is room for you to both be as you are AND grow into what you want.
The process
In weekly individual sessions, we’ll focus on what is actually getting in your way.
That may include:
procrastination and task initiation
organization and planning
emotional overwhelm
rejection sensitivity
shame and self-criticism
work, parenting, relationships, money, routines, and daily life
We’ll explore the ins and outs of what causes these issues, build simple systems and routines for overcoming challenges, and practice tools that help your body and brain feel less overwhelmed.
We’re not just here to get stuff done, but also to help you learn how to soothe challenging emotions, communicate widely about your needs, and bring calm to a noisy nervous system.
