Counselling for People with ADHD in York

ADHD Counselling in York

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects millions of people worldwide.

Although ADHD is recognised as being on a spectrum, many individuals experience symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that impact their day to day life.

While often diagnosed in childhood, ADHD can also be identified in adulthood, where it can continue to present challenges in all aspects of life including memory, work, learning, relationships, and overall well-being.

Here at York Therapy Clinic, we offer ADHD counselling designed to empower individuals to manage their symptoms effectively and thrive in daily life.

Please note, we do not offer ADHD assessments at this time, though do offer skilled counsellors and therapists that can help deal with the challenges that ADHD can bring.

How ADHD Counselling Can Help

People with ADHD can face the same difficulties as those without ADHD, including depression, anxiety, sleep problems, OCD and a range of other problems though having ADHD can bring about its own challenges.

There are a number of ways that specific ADHD counselling in York can help. These include:

Understanding Your ADHD: We’ll work with you to gain a deeper understanding of your specific ADHD presentation and its impact on your life so you can recognise it better.
Building Skills & Strategies to Maximise Your Strengths: We’ll teach you practical tools to improve focus, organisation, time management, and emotional regulation so that you can minimise the impact that ADHD might have on your day to day life.
Developing Coping Mechanisms: Our ADHD Counsellors and Therapists can help you develop effective coping strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and frustration that commonly comes with ADHD to help you regulate your emotions better.
Improving Relationships: ADHD can lead to difficulties with maintaining relationships. Our therapists can help you work through relationship difficulties with loved ones and colleagues to prevent relationship breakdown.
Boosting Self-Esteem: You’ll learn to manage negative self-talk and develop a stronger sense of self-confidence so you are able to maximise your effectiveness in everyday life.

Though therapy and counselling might not eliminate ADHD, your counsellor will be able to help you learn new strategies and overcome challenges that can minimise its impact, so that you can function better in day to day life.

Our Approach to ADHD Counselling

At York Therapy Clinic, our team of ADHD Psychologists, Counsellors and Therapists believe in working collaboratively with you to help you overcome your difficulties and the challenges that ADHD can bring.

Since those with ADHD can experience the same difficulties as those without the diagnosis, counselling and therapy can be helpful to overcome and learn to manage problems with depression, anxiety, sleep and other problems that are known to be affected by ADHD.

Our therapists utilise a variety of evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), tailoring them to your individual needs so that your therapy and counselling is specific to you.

ADHD can often co-occur with anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Our counsellors in York can address these concerns within your ADHD counselling plan, helping you to develop resilience and problem-solving skills to navigate life’s challenges.
