Your home is making ADHD harder — it doesn’t have to.
Interior Design solutions for homes with neurodivergent families. Design that understands your child and helps when you can’t be there.

We design for those tired of the daily ADHD struggles
The “Sensory Dump” at the Front Door
Low-friction, open drop-zones (hooks instead of hangers, open cubbies instead of closed closet doors with latches).
The “Bedtime Routine Drag-Out”
Closed, visual-noise-blocking bedroom storage, concealed toy bins, and warm, low-kelvin dimmable lighting zones that signal the brain to decompress.
The “Out of Sight, Out of Mind” Toy Disaster
Clear-front bins, shallow shelving, and visual zoning that give items an explicit “home” while keeping visual clutter contained.
The Guilt of the “Unwelcoming” House
Integrated, beautiful hidden storage systems that allow the house to be “reset” in under 5 minutes without complex organizational steps.
Designers are trained to care about how you live, not just how it looks.
An organizer decides where things go. A designer decides why — at what height, in what order, and how few steps it takes on the hardest day. That reasoning is what’s still working two months later.

Sensory Design Consult
You send in up to 6 photos, measurements, and what your biggest struggle is in that space.
We set up a discovery & vision call. Within 10 days from the call we’ll send back a workable floorplan, a design board with 3–5 purchasable items, and a 3D image of the room with our suggestions and feedback on solving struggles for your specific needs.
Then you decide — complete it on your own, or let us do the heavy lifting with our Full Service Sensory Design options. Your full $300 can be applied to a Full Service option.
Virtual Full Service Sensory Design
Initial design consult and discovery call or video chat. You can send up to 10 photos and 2 videos.
Within 10 days you’ll receive a workable floor plan and a 3D image of the room with actual selected items shown in a design presentation. We set up a presentation call to discuss the plan, and you receive access to our trade resources and discounts for selected products.
Installation — we coordinate ordering, assembly, haul away and install via a third party, with virtual project management throughout.
We’ve been doing this a while, so there’s no need for hourly services — one flat fee. For any additional furniture or products we suggest purchasing, we will confirm pricing, placement, and delivery. We will keep you in the know, with no hidden costs.

Sometimes new routines just aren’t working, and we like to make sure our plans do stick and help you. In Full Service Sensory Design we offer a complimentary mini recheck (up to two design changes). If a whole new design is needed, a full ReCheck is $500.

In their words
“Shellee made a process that felt overwhelming feel manageable by guiding me through every color and material decision.”
Sarah H.“Shellee took the stress out of decorating by patiently guiding me through the decisions and creating a space that truly works for my family.”
Pauline H.“Shellee took the stress out of our remodel, guiding us through the decisions and creating spaces that truly work for our family.”
Stacy D.“Shellee listened to how I wanted my spaces to feel and created an environment that is organized, inviting, and still full of personality.”
Katie B.Shellee Anderson, Allied ASID
Founder of Dwell with Purpose
Shellee believes your home can be one of your biggest tools for helping an ADHD brain thrive.
After more than 15 years in interior design, she’s seen firsthand how much our environment can affect the way we think, function, and feel. She’s taken that experience — from cabinetry and space planning to hospitality and medical design — and applied it to a purpose that goes beyond creating beautiful spaces: designing homes that support the way ADHD brains actually work.
Because sometimes the problem isn’t that your child needs to try harder or be more organized. Sometimes their environment needs to work differently, too.
Her goal is to create thoughtful, practical spaces that reduce overwhelm, support independence, and help your family feel more successful and at ease in your own home.
Before you book
Does my house need to be clean or guest-ready first?
No — and please don’t tidy it. Seeing your home the way it actually lives is what tells me where the real problems are. The pile on the counter, the shoes by the door, the drawer nobody opens: that’s the information I need. A staged photo hides the exact thing you hired me to fix, and I promise I have seen worse.
Is my space too small, too messy, or too far gone?
No. Start with one area, get one win, and decide from there. Some of the biggest changes come from the smallest spaces — a four-foot entry wall can change how every school morning goes.
What if I don’t like the design?
You see it before you buy anything. Your plan comes back as a 3D image of your actual room, and we walk through it together on a call. Nothing gets ordered until you’re happy with it.
Do you have to come to my house?
Not at all. Everything can be done virtually from photos, measurements and a video call — that’s how most clients work with us, anywhere in the country. If you’re local to DFW and would prefer an in-person visit, contact us for an in-person design fee.
Will this actually help my child?
Design supports how your child functions — it doesn’t treat ADHD, and anyone who tells you otherwise is overselling. What a well-designed room does is take away the friction that turns an ordinary morning into a fight, so your child can succeed without being managed through every step.
Do I have to buy everything you recommend?
No. The plan is yours to use at your own pace. Many families start with two or three pieces and add the rest later — and with Full Service you get our trade resources and discounts on the items we select.
How much will the furniture cost on top of the design fee?
That depends entirely on the room and what you want to replace. We confirm pricing, placement and delivery on everything we suggest before anything is ordered, and we’ll work within the budget you give us. No hidden costs, and no hourly billing — the design fee is flat.
What if it stops working after a few months?
Routines change, and sometimes a plan needs adjusting — that’s normal, and it isn’t a failure on your part. Full Service Sensory Design includes a complimentary mini recheck at six months for up to two design changes. If the space needs a whole new design, a full ReCheck is $500.
My child isn’t formally diagnosed. Can you still help?
Yes. You don’t need a diagnosis to want a home that works better for how your family actually lives. Tell us what the hard parts of the day look like and we’ll design around those.
How long does the whole thing take?
Your design comes back within 10 days of your call. For Full Service, ordering and installation timing depends on lead times for the pieces we select — we’ll give you a realistic schedule at the presentation call and keep you in the know throughout.
