ADHD Counselling and Coaching

Many adults with ADHD face challenges like being on time, starting tasks, and keeping track of personal belongings. 

These challenges are often due to executive functioning difficulties, a core aspect of ADHD. We help you understand and manage these difficulties with:

• An executive function questionnaire to identify strengths and areas for improvement.
• A personalized executive function management plan to address specific challenges.
• Education on how executive functions manifest in daily life.
• Neuroaffirming strategies, exercises, and practical tips for managing executive dysfunction.
• Therapeutic interventions to address procrastination, task paralysis, and other common issues.
• Motivational strategies to break free from perfectionism and achieve your goals.

Emotional regulation is an essential part of managing ADHD. For adults with ADHD, understanding and supporting emotional needs can lead to greater self-acceptance and well-being. We provide guidance on:

• What emotional regulation looks like for adults with ADHD.
• Understanding sensory needs and their impact on emotional well-being.
• Strategies for managing mood swings, including Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD).
• Addressing the long-term effects of late-diagnosed or untreated ADHD.
• Unpacking unhealthy coping strategies, low self-esteem, and self-doubt.
• Exploring masking behaviours and practicing radical self-acceptance.
• Tools for handling burnout and overcoming imposter syndrome.

 Living with ADHD means understanding what truly works for you. For many late-diagnosed ADHDers, unlearning outdated beliefs and learning to work with their unique needs is crucial. We help you:

• Embrace your ADHD by identifying what strategies work best for you.
• Integrate research on executive functions for a comprehensive understanding.
• Conduct a sensory profile to assess and meet your sensory needs.
• Focus on simplicity and minimize additional tasks between sessions.
• Shift perspectives on productivity, valuing progress over perfection.
• Challenge toxic beliefs about discipline and guilt as motivation.
• Empower self-advocacy and promote a balanced, fulfilling life.

 We offer comprehensive ADHD education and awareness on a variety of topics, including:

• Understanding executive functioning skills.
• The link between dopamine and ADHD.
• How ADHD impacts emotions and mood regulation.
• Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD).
• Navigating guilt and shame with a late ADHD diagnosis.
• How gender can influence ADHD presentation.
• Masking, self-acceptance, and neurodiversity-affirming support.
• The impact of productivity culture on ADHD.
• Strategies for maintaining a career and relationships with ADHD.
• Managing sensory sensitivities associated with ADHD.
