Imagine your child tossing aside homework in frustration or being told to “sit still” one more time. At home the mood winds tight with tension, at school the grades slip, at dinner the connection feels lost. ADHD can feel less like a diagnosis and more like a fog — but what if finding the right help could lift it, letting everything come into clearer view
In Fort Worth, Texas, Amy Fowler Therapy offers more than comfort. It offers tools, compassionate guidance, and hope for children, teens, and families navigating ADHD. As an ADHD therapist, Amy Fowler helps turn confusion into understanding, scattered energy into grounded potential, and family strain into shared resilience.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder shows up in many forms. Sometimes children struggle with paying attention, managing time, or organizing tasks. Other times they feel restless, impulsive, or emotionally volatile. These symptoms do not just affect school work. They can tangle friendships, family routines, self perception, and emotional wellness
Every child with ADHD lives a unique experience. Some may fall behind because distractions pull them from their work. Others may feel embarrassed by impulsivity or frustrated by inability to self-regulate. Without support, ADHD symptoms can lead to anxiety, low self esteem, and emotional struggles. Recognizing how ADHD impacts daily life is the first step toward compassionate change

Amy Fowler brings more than credentials. She brings deep experience, especially with children and adolescents facing not just ADHD but learning disabilities, autism spectrum concerns, emotional disturbance, and other developmental needs. With more than seventeen years of experience working in counseling and special education settings, she understands the intertwined nature of attention challenges, emotional responses, and social relationships.
Her approach is evidence based, using therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral therapy. She combines research driven methods with a heart centered style. She creates environments where children feel safe to express themselves without judgement. She works not only with the child but with parents and caregivers, building routines, communication, and consistency across home and school
When therapy begins, there is an intake that helps Amy learn your child’s strengths, routines, challenges, and environmental factors. She tailors each plan to the individual temperament, developmental level, and social environment of the child. Therapy includes behavior modification strategies that support self regulation, routines, and structure. Games, play, and creative activities may be used with younger children to help them learn focus, impulse control, and emotional regulation without feeling lectured.
For school aged children, Amy works on skills such as organization, time management, and handling school expectations. She supports parents to understand their child’s needs and to create an environment of consistent support. For teens, therapy may include academic coaching, peer relationship skills, managing emotional reactivity, and preparing for transitions. She collaborates with schools when relevant, helping with Individualized Education Programs or 504 Plans to ensure the academic setting reinforces rather than undermines therapeutic gains
Many families feel guilt, misunderstanding, or frustration before beginning therapy. Some expect quick fixes, but change often feels gradual. Impulsive behavior does not simply stop; emotional reactivity does not vanish overnight. Therapy asks for patience. Another misconception is that medication is the only solution. While medication can help in many cases, therapy plays a crucial role in building skills, self awareness, emotional regulation, and long term coping. Some believe ADHD is about willpower or discipline, but the neurodevelopmental basis of ADHD shows that brains process attention, impulse, reward, and regulation differently
Therapy also asks families to change. Routines, expectations, communication styles all matter. This can be a challenge, especially if there are other stressors at home or school. But involving caregivers in the process tends to make progress steadier and more meaningful.
Early sessions with Amy Fowler often involve building rapport with your child, learning patterns of behavior, attention, emotion, and how ADHD affects daily life. Amy may use assessments, checklists, or behavioral observations to understand what works well and what does not. There is safety in openness: children are encouraged to share what feels hard, parents to share what is overwhelming. An ADHD therapist will teach self regulation tools, coping strategies, ways to manage impulses and frustration. Over time, the child begins to practice those tools in real life tasks—homework, social settings, family routines
Progress is measured not only by symptom reduction but by improvements in confidence, emotional balance, relationships, academic consistency, and overall wellbeing. Small wins—less meltdowns, better ability to finish a task, improved communication—count. Therapy is a journey with many steps.
At Amy Fowler Therapy, being an ADHD therapist means believing children are more than their struggles. It means seeing strengths hidden under distractibility, courage buried under frustration. It means equipping families with tools to turn chaos into structure and criticism into understanding. When ADHD is met with skilled guidance and empathetic support it stops being a barrier and becomes a part of a child’s story of growth
If your child struggles to focus or regulate their energy or emotions reach out. Begin with that first intake session. Let understanding replace worry. Let consistent support replace chaos. Let your child discover what they can become with an ADHD therapist who cares deeply and works skillfully.
