ADHD Therapy Can Help With

Struggling with Concentration

Difficulty focusing on tasks or sustaining attention can significantly impact daily life. Our therapists help you identify triggers for distraction and develop personalized strategies like time-blocking, environmental modifications, and mindfulness techniques to enhance your ability to focus on what matters most.

Emotional Regulation Challenges

Experiencing intense emotions or mood swings is common with ADHD. We work with you to understand your emotional patterns, develop grounding techniques, and build resilience. Learn to recognize emotional triggers and respond thoughtfully rather than reactively.

Social Interaction Struggles

Facing challenges in social settings or relationships can feel isolating. Our therapy sessions address communication skills, active listening, and social cue recognition. We help you build confidence in interpersonal situations and develop deeper, more meaningful connections.

Co-existing Conditions

Managing ADHD alongside other mental health issues like anxiety or depression requires an integrated approach. Our therapists are trained to address multiple conditions simultaneously, creating a comprehensive treatment plan that considers your complete mental health picture.

Academic or Work Performance

Needing strategies to improve productivity and performance is a common concern. We help you develop executive function skills including planning, prioritization, and task completion. Learn to leverage your unique ADHD strengths while building systems that support consistent performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about ADHD therapy

Do I need an official ADHD diagnosis to start therapy?

No, you don’t need a formal diagnosis to begin therapy. Many people seek support while exploring whether they have ADHD. Our therapists can help you understand your experiences and, if appropriate, guide you toward formal assessment resources.

What types of therapy are used for ADHD?

We use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns; mindfulness-based techniques for improved focus and emotional regulation; and coaching strategies for executive function skills like planning and organization.

How long does ADHD therapy typically take?

Treatment duration varies based on individual needs and goals. Some clients see significant improvements within 8-12 sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support. We’ll regularly assess your progress and adjust the treatment plan accordingly.

Can therapy help with ADHD if I'm already taking medication?

Absolutely. Therapy and medication often work best together. While medication can help manage symptoms, therapy provides skills and strategies that medication alone cannot. We can coordinate with your prescriber to ensure comprehensive care.

Do you work with adults who were recently diagnosed?

Yes, many of our clients are adults who received their diagnosis later in life. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have known about your ADHD for years, we tailor our approach to meet you where you are in your journey.
