I’m Dr. Munn Saechao, PsyD, LCSW | Mountain View & California

I am Dr. Munn, a licensed clinical psychologist and clinical social worker specializing in ADHD therapy for adults, teens, and parents of children with ADHD in Silicon Valley and across California.

Much of my work centers on a pattern I see again and again: individuals who are bright, driven, and deeply capable, yet privately exhausted from navigating a world that was not designed for their brain. Many of my clients have spent years trying harder, masking their struggles, and wondering why it still feels so difficult despite their best efforts. The answer is rarely a lack of effort or intelligence. It is most often a lack of the right understanding and support.

I bring both extensive clinical training and personal understanding to this work. As an Asian American woman, a child of refugees, and a first generation doctoral student, I know what it means to carry high expectations, cultural pressure, and a brain that does not fit the mold. That lived experience, alongside over 17 years in the mental health field, shapes the way I show up for every client I work with.

My approach is collaborative, evidence-informed, and grounded in deep respect for neurodiversity. I do not view ADHD as a deficit to be corrected. I view it as a distinct neurological profile that, with the right understanding and support, can be a genuine source of strength. Therapy with me is tailored, individualized, and focused on helping clients build sustainable ways of living that are aligned with how their brain actually works.

The articles on this blog are written to offer accessible, evidence-informed insights on ADHD, anxiety, burnout, emotional regulation, and related topics. Whether you are newly diagnosed, years into understanding your ADHD, or a parent trying to support your child, I hope you find something here that helps you feel less alone and more informed. If you are ready to take the next step, I would welcome the opportunity to connect.
