ADHD Therapy for Adults

Having ADHD doesn't have to mean feeling broken.

ADHD has real impacts in adulthood

You want to do the thing, but you're stuck. You don't want to say or do the thing, but you can't slow down enough to stop. You're either feeling everything all the time, or nothing at all. Your attention is out the window (literally). Oh, and you also have a full time job or studies, a relationship, maybe even some kids. You've got real-world responsibilities on your plate, and a sinking feeling about your ability to handle them. 

 

ADHD is more than a little boy running around a classroom. It's a pattern of challenges with attention, impulse control and activity that exists in all age groups and across the spectrum of gender, culture and income. ADHD is a collection of symptoms that are the result of differences in the way brains develop - and we often see other struggles like depression, anxiety and addictions alongside ADHD. It's not just one thing. 

 

Therapy for ADHD isn't about making you neurotypical, or the same as someone who doesn't have ADHD. It's about learning some new skills and new ways of relating to yourself and your brain that can help you navigate life more effectively and actually do the things that matter to you.
