Durham NH Therapist —
ADHD & Executive Functioning
Compassionate telehealth counseling for Durham-area adults, college students, and teens navigating ADHD, focus challenges, and executive functioning. Licensed in NH & VT · Free 30-minute consultation.
Working with the brain
you actually have.
Durham is home to the University of New Hampshire — a college town filled with students, young professionals, faculty, and families who understand what it means to have a lot on their plate. For many people in the Durham area, the challenge isn't effort or intelligence. It's a brain that works differently — and a world that wasn't entirely designed for it.
Aligned Associates PLLC offers telehealth counseling for Durham and Seacoast NH residents navigating ADHD, executive functioning challenges, and the emotional complexity that often comes with them. Stephanie Kimber, MA, LCMHC, provides practical tools and compassionate support for managing a brain that works differently — at school, at work, at home, and in relationships.
All sessions are via secure video — no commute, no waiting room, and flexible enough to fit into a student schedule, a busy work day, or a family routine.
ADHD & Executive Functioning:
Strategies for the real world.
ADHD is one of the most misunderstood conditions in mental health. It isn't a lack of attention — it's a difference in how attention is regulated. Many people reach adulthood without ever being diagnosed, having spent years quietly struggling with time management, organization, impulsivity, or emotional regulation while wondering why everything feels harder for them than it seems to for everyone else.
Whether you have a formal diagnosis or are simply recognizing patterns that have followed you your whole life, therapy can make a meaningful difference. Stephanie works with adults and teens to develop practical coping tools, understand the emotional layers that often accompany ADHD — including anxiety, low self-esteem, and relationship friction — and build systems that work with how your brain actually functions, not against it.
For UNH students and recent graduates managing academic pressure, career transitions, or the shift to independent adult life, ADHD support can be especially valuable during this demanding chapter.

A college town with
serious outdoor appeal.
Durham may be a small town but it punches well above its weight for things to do — from the banks of the Oyster River to the NH Seacoast just minutes away. Whether you're a UNH student, a faculty family, or a longtime local, here are some of the best ways to get outside and enjoy the area.
The Oyster River runs right through Durham with calm tidal stretches ideal for kayaking and paddleboarding. An interactive map at 7 Rivers to the Coast shows all access points and amenities.
A hidden gem right in Durham — Adams Point juts into Great Bay and offers stunning tidal views, birdwatching, and peaceful walking trails with almost no crowds.
A nationally protected estuary reserve just minutes from Durham — boardwalk trails, tidal wildlife viewing, interactive exhibits, and osprey nesting cams. Open year-round, free to visit.
NH's largest state park on the seacoast — rocky shoreline, tidal pools, nature center, and miles of walking paths. A wonderful family destination just 25 minutes from Durham.
Just 20 minutes from Durham, Hampton Beach is one of New England's most popular shorelines — wide sandy beach, ocean swimming, and a lively boardwalk for families and groups.
The University of New Hampshire campus features beautiful walking paths, open greens, and the College Woods — a 200-acre forest ideal for trail runs, quiet walks, and clearing your head.
