About

Steven Ponec Counseling is a virtual-only therapy practice focused on people with ADHD and AuDHD, the overlap of autism and ADHD. Steven Ponec is a Professional Counselor Associate who completed a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at George Fox University in 2025 and practices under the clinical supervision of Mary E. Roberts, MA, LPC, LMHC. Having lived with ADHD their whole life, Steven brings personal understanding as well as clinical training to the work, and supports teens and adults, including those who received a diagnosis later in life. Sessions pair emotional support with practical tools. Clients work on managing emotions and impulses, building routines and organizing systems, practicing mindfulness and growing frustration tolerance, with methods drawn from ACT, DBT and CBT and shaped around how each person's brain works. Anxiety and depression tied to ADHD are often addressed along the way. Steven does not prescribe medication but can refer clients to medication providers. Individual sessions run 60 minutes at $150, paid out of pocket, with limited sliding scale options, and a short video consultation helps both sides decide on fit. The practice website currently notes a pause on new clients, so please check availability when reaching out.
