The Stixrud Group is a lifespan neuropsychology practice with offices in Silver Spring, MD and McLean, VA, serving families throughout the DMV area since 1985. We specialize in the evaluation of ADHD across the lifespan, from young children to adults, and understand that ADHD often overlaps with learning differences, anxiety, and executive function challenges. Rather than stopping at a diagnosis, we take a strengths-based approach, helping families move forward with a clear, actionable plan. Dr. Salya Namazi serves as Board Secretary for this CHADD chapter. Learn more at stixrud.com.

The Sycamore School follows a mastery-based learning model that integrates academic development, social-emotional growth, and civic engagement. We serve a cross-section of students in the 5th-12th grade, including those who have anxiety, ADHD, and/or ASD. As an inclusive and progressive school, we are proud to serve a large LGBTQIA+ community. TSS creates a meaningful learning process, whereby teachers personalize instruction according to students’ interests, needs, and aptitudes. Learning is self-paced, offering both remediation and accelerated learning. Executive functioning and social-emotional skills are taught alongside academic skills. We’re intentionally small, maintaining a 1:6 teacher to student ratio. TSS offers a purposeful education that prepares students for college and the workplace through explicitly teaching higher-level thinking skills and creating opportunities for meaningful engagement with the community.
