ADHD can affect much more than attention. You may struggle to start tasks, stay organized, manage time, follow through, regulate emotions, or keep up with responsibilities - even when you are trying hard. Over time, this can lead to frustration, shame, anxiety, and the feeling that you are constantly falling behind in daily life.
Our psychologists help adults and teens with ADHD better understand their patterns, reduce self-criticism, and build practical strategies for daily life. Therapy may focus on executive functioning, procrastination, emotional regulation, perfectionism, motivation, and the anxiety or low self-esteem that often develops alongside ADHD.
Many of the world's greatest thinkers, inventors and entrepreneurs have had aspects of ADHD, and the ability to hyperfocus to the exclusion of the outside world has given them the advantage of being able to think outside of the box. For many people with ADHD, it can be hard to tap into the adaptive side of ADHD in the midst of the distractions of everyday life or when so many thoughts are going in so many directions that it’s difficult to focus on the best way forward. By integrating hypnosis with a variety of therapy techniques, our therapists help clients with ADHD to calm their minds, identify goals, mitigate procrastination, and implement a plan moving forward so they can enjoy more productive and satisfying lives.
Our therapists are highly skilled and specialized in addressing the challenges related to ADHD, offering a comprehensive approach that combines evidence-based modalities such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and hypnosis. Their extensive training has shaped a unique therapeutic approach that helps clients strengthen attentional networks and improve emotional regulation. While ADHD has neurological foundations, our therapists use a strength-based approach, helping clients recognize the positive aspects of their condition rather than seeing it as a deficit. They emphasize that individuals with ADHD can be just as successful, if not more so, than their peers, focusing on the adaptive strengths of the condition.
In addition to traditional therapies, hypnosis can be particularly helpful in navigating ADHD. Hypnosis teaches clients how to exercise control over their attention—learning when to focus intensely and when to allow the mind to wander without judgment. This self-regulation skill is crucial for managing ADHD symptoms, as it helps clients strike a balance between harnessing focus during key moments and using mind-wandering as a creative or restorative tool.
Our therapists not only address the core symptoms of ADHD but also help clients manage the emotional and psychological difficulties that often accompany it. By developing personalized strategies to improve focus and emotional resilience, they help clients navigate academic, work, and personal settings more effectively. They also address co-occurring concerns such as performance anxiety, low self-esteem, and the social stigma that can lead to feelings of shame or embarrassment.
In therapy, clients are also supported in managing anxiety and depression, which commonly coexist with ADHD. Our therapists focus on reducing internalized self-doubt and building resilience, self-compassion, and confidence, providing coping skills that allow clients to thrive despite societal pressures and misconceptions.
