ADHD Therapist for Women in Columbia, SC | Kristen McClure, LCSW
Neurodivergent-affirming telehealth therapy for women in Columbia and across South Carolina
If you are in Columbia, South Carolina and looking for an ADHD therapist who understands how ADHD actually presents in adult women, you are in the right place. I offer telehealth therapy for women across South Carolina, including Columbia and the surrounding Midlands region.
ADHD Therapy for Women in Columbia, SC
Many women in Columbia have spent years being treated for anxiety, depression, or burnout without anyone identifying the ADHD underneath. Women with ADHD are frequently missed — not because they aren't struggling, but because their struggles look different from the ADHD most clinicians were trained to recognize.
I specialize in ADHD in women: the internalized version, the high-masking version, the late-diagnosed version. The woman who held everything together for decades and is now running on empty. The woman who just got a diagnosis at 38 and is trying to make sense of her whole life through a new lens.
Why Telehealth Works Well for ADHD
I work exclusively through secure telehealth, which means you can access therapy from anywhere in South Carolina — including Columbia — without the added demands of commuting, traffic, or managing logistics around your sessions.
For many women with ADHD, telehealth removes one of the most common barriers to consistent care. You meet from a familiar environment, on a schedule that works for your brain, without the sensory and executive demands of getting somewhere. Many clients find they are more focused and more regulated in their own space.
All sessions are conducted through a HIPAA-compliant video platform.
What I Specialize In
I work with adult women navigating ADHD and the conditions that commonly co-occur with it:
ADHD — including late diagnosis, burnout, masking, and twice-exceptional presentations. Anxiety — particularly when it has developed as a long-term response to unrecognized ADHD. OCD, depression, and trauma — including the particular shame that builds when ADHD goes unrecognized for years. Rejection sensitive dysphoria, hormonal transitions, and the relational impact of living with an ADHD nervous system.
My Approach
My work is explicitly neurodivergent-affirming. I don't treat ADHD as a deficit to be corrected. I treat it as a nervous system that works differently — and focus on building a life that fits how your brain actually works.
My framework is built around five areas: self-awareness, self-compassion, self-accommodation, self-advocacy, and self-care. The goal is not symptom management. It is a life that fits who you are.
Fees and Insurance
Session fee: $110 per session | Session length: 55 minutes | Most BCBS plans accepted | Out-of-network provider — superbills available
Frequently Asked Questions
You can find me through Psychology Today or by emailing me directly. I offer telehealth for women across South Carolina, so location within the state is not a barrier to access.
I do not offer in-person sessions. All therapy is conducted via secure telehealth, which allows me to work with women throughout South Carolina from wherever they are most comfortable.
I accept most BCBS plans. I am also an out-of-network provider and can provide superbills for reimbursement through other insurance plans. It is worth contacting your insurance to ask about out-of-network mental health benefits.
Yes. Many of my clients are navigating a late ADHD diagnosis and processing what it means for their past, their present, and their future. That is a significant part of what therapy addresses.
Neurodivergent-affirming therapy means I do not approach ADHD as a deficit or disorder to be fixed. I approach it as a nervous system difference that deserves accurate understanding and a life designed around how it actually works — not how it is expected to work.
