ADHD and How Therapy Can Help

ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention and impulse control. Contrary to common belief, it persists into adulthood and comes in various forms. Key features include difficulty focusing and impulsivity, while hyperactivity isn't always present.


Individuals with ADHD often experience "hyper-focus" on specific tasks but struggle with routine ones and may abandon tasks prematurely. The exact cause remains complex, involving genetics, neurology, and environment.


Diagnosing ADHD involves experts such as neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, pediatricians, and mental health professionals. ADHD affects diverse life aspects but can be managed effectively.


As a mental health counselor, I assist clients in identifying their ADHD challenges:

  • Vulnerable Periods: We pinpoint when ADHD symptoms intensify, developing strategies to mitigate these moments.

  • Stressors: We identify specific triggers worsening symptoms, forming the basis for effective intervention.

  • De-Escalation Techniques: I teach valuable techniques for managing stress and overwhelming moments.

  • Tailored Coping Strategies: Customized strategies are crafted when needed, matching individual circumstances.

  • Addressing Maladaptive Habits: We recognize and replace unhelpful coping methods with healthier alternatives.
