ADHD Therapy for Adults Melbourne

As a therapist with lived experience of neurodivergence and chronic pain, I offer a supportive and understanding space for adults navigating the complexities of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), sometimes referred to as ADD. Adult ADHD therapy focuses on recognising how ADHD manifests differently in adulthood and developing personalised strategies to manage its impact on various aspects of life, from executive function to emotional regulation. My approach acknowledges the unique strengths and challenges associated with ADHD. 

Engaging in therapy tailored for adult ADHD can provide significant benefits:

• Improved Executive Function Skills: We can work together to develop practical strategies for enhancing time management, organisation, planning, prioritisation, and task initiation – common challenges for individuals with ADHD.
• Emotional Regulation Support: Therapy can help you understand and manage intense emotions, impulsivity, and emotional sensitivity often experienced by adults with ADHD, fostering greater emotional stability.
• Enhanced Self-Awareness and Acceptance: Through therapy, you can gain a deeper understanding of your ADHD traits, patterns, and triggers, leading to increased self-compassion and acceptance of your neurodivergent identity.
• Strategies for Inattention and Hyperactivity: We will explore techniques to improve focus, manage restlessness, and channel energy in productive ways, tailored to your specific presentation of ADHD.
• Relationship Skills and Communication: Therapy can address challenges in interpersonal relationships, improve communication skills, and help navigate social cues, considering the impact of ADHD on these interactions.
• Support for Co-occurring Conditions: Many adults with ADHD also experience anxiety, depression, or other mental health conditions. My trauma-informed approach ensures these are addressed in a sensitive and integrated manner.
• Trauma-Informed and Neurodiversity-Affirming Care: My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed understanding of neurodivergence, providing a safe and validating space for your experiences as an individual with ADHD.
• Accessible Support Across Australia: Whether you reside in Melbourne or anywhere else in Australia, my online therapy services offer a convenient and flexible way to access specialised ADHD support.
• LGBTQIA+ Allied and Friendly: I am committed to providing an inclusive and affirming environment for individuals of all gender identities and sexual orientations within the ADHD community.
