Neurodivergent & Cognitive Support
Support That Celebrates How You Think
You don’t need to fit a mold to feel supported.
At Minnesota Behavioral Health, we believe that brains work in wonderfully different ways and each deserves to be understood, supported, and respected. Whether you’re navigating ADHD, autism, or challenges like sleep disturbances, our neurodivergent and cognitive support services are built to meet you where you are.
Our goal isn’t to “fix” you. It’s to help you thrive, function with more ease, and live in alignment with your strengths.
What Is Neurodivergence?
Neurodivergence refers to natural variations in how people think, feel, and process the world. It includes conditions like ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and learning or cognitive differences. These aren’t flaws, they’re different wiring that often comes with both challenges and incredible strengths.
At Minnesota Behavioral Health, we don’t pathologize. We empower.
How We Help
ADHD (Children & Adults)
Struggling with focus, restlessness, or time management? You’re not lazy; you may have ADHD. Whether you’re a parent concerned about your child, or an adult who’s tired of feeling “scattered,” we’re here to help you build structure and clarity.
What ADHD Can Look Like:
- Difficulty with attention and organization
- Impulsivity or hyperactivity

Our Support Includes:
- ADHD-focused therapy and coaching
- Executive function skill-building
- Medication evaluation and management

Let’s transform chaos into confidence—without shaming how your brain works.

- Social skills training
- Emotional regulation strategies
- Support with transitions and routine planning

We celebrate neurodiversity and help build tools for meaningful, empowered living.
Sleep Disorders
Sleep is a neurological necessity. And for many neurodivergent individuals, sleep is one of the first things to get disrupted.
Common Issues We See:
- Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep
- Sleep-wake cycle disruptions

We Offer:
- Sleep hygiene coaching and behavioral strategies
