Our Approach
Every woman with ADHD has a story, and that story often changes with the seasons of life. Each chapter brings its own challenges, triumphs, and, yes, heartbreaks—but also the possibility of profound growth.
The Blooming Spring:
20s-30s
These are years of hormonal storms and self-discovery. ADHD collides with the peaks and valleys of your menstrual cycle, often magnifying symptoms like PMDD and emotional dysregulation. Fertility challenges can add layers of guilt and confusion. It’s a time when your Brain craves clarity, your Body demands balance, your Beliefs in yourself waver, and your Behaviors feel chaotic.
The Overgrown Summer:
30s-40s
The season of juggling—career ambitions, relationships, and motherhood. ADHD may manifest as dropped balls, missed promotions, and simmering burnout. You might feel like you’re failing everyone, including yourself. Your Brain struggles to focus, your Body feels overtaxed, your Beliefs in your capabilities falter, and your Behaviors seem stuck in endless firefighting.
The Shifting Autumn:
40s-50s
As estrogen dips, ADHD symptoms often intensify, bringing brain fog, memory lapses, and emotional turbulence. It’s not just aging—it’s a neurological and hormonal perfect storm. Your brain feels sluggish, your body starts sending distress signals, your beliefs about your resilience are tested, and your behaviors may feel like they’re grinding to a halt. But autumn is also a season of transformation. With the right support, you can shed what no longer serves you and step into clarity.
The Restorative Winter:
50s-60s:
The estrogen plunge of menopause can feel like the final straw. ADHD magnifies the cognitive and emotional challenges of this time, leaving many women feeling adrift. Your Brain yearns for renewal, your Body calls for healing, your Beliefs in your identity need rebuilding, and your Behaviors demand recalibration. Winter is not the end—it’s the beginning of a new kind of wisdom and strength.
The triple threat
The ADHD Gender Gap
Women’s ADHD leads to lower productivity, reduced quality of life, and increased societal costs, estimated at ~$80B+ tied to mental and physical health challenges, as well as unemployment and social and professional setbacks.
Misunderstanding
ADHD in women often goes unrecognized or misdiagnosed, resulting in ineffective treatments and compounding health challenges.
Misdiagnosis
Given how ADHD presents differently in women and evolves quietly under the radar, it is often misdiagnosed for anxiety and/or depression until the symptoms become unmanageable, unbearable, and/or lead to serious mental and medical diseases.
Mismanagement
Traditional ADHD care focuses on pharmacotherapy as a first order of treatments and overlooks the unique biological, emotional, and behavioral needs of women.
“Remarkable! This team goes above and beyond to design the right care for women. They are truly closing the long-standing care gap, delivering the support and solutions that have been missing for far too long.”

A Legacy of Innovation and Inspiration
NovaVia Health was founded to close the debilitating care gap that has held women with ADHD back for generations. Misunderstood and misdiagnosed, they’ve struggled to reach their full potential—impacting not just themselves but their families, careers, and communities. We’ve assembled some of the most celebrated minds and boldest innovators to author a new, data-driven care model that meets the unique needs of women with ADHD.
Our founders saw what others overlooked—a system failing brilliant women with ADHD. Instead of adapting to a broken model, they built a new one—one that honors the neurodivergent mind, nurtures the body, and safeguards self-esteem. By aligning behavior with the environment, they unlocked true empowerment. With science, innovation, and lived experience, they are leading a movement—giving women the tools to rise, thrive, and take their place in the world.
