Dawn K. Brown, M.D.

Known as "The M.D. with ADHD," Dr. Dawn was diagnosed with ADHD while completing her child psychiatry fellowship program.  She is the owner, CEO, and sole practitioner of two private practices, ADHD Wellness Center which has multiple locations in six states, and Mental Healthletics™, which provides all-inclusive mental health services for elite athletes and their ecosystems. She also serves as a psychiatrist for four clinics in six states where she is medically licensed (Texas, Illinois, California, Florida, Colorado, and Georgia.)

In her best-selling book, The ADHD Lifestyle Series, her podcast, “From ADHD to Amaze-Ability,” and Facebook Live weekly broadcasts, she seeks to de-stigmatize mental illness and dispel myths about the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions.

Dr. Brown earned her doctorate degree and completed her Residency in General/Adult Psychiatry at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine and completed an additional two-year fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the Menninger Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. She is an official independent physician consultant for national sports organizations.
