ADHD Support
Where to get help when
ADHD affects your life.
Counselling for ADHD
ADHD can affect many areas of adult life, from focus and organisation to emotional regulation, relationships and self-esteem.
For many adults, these patterns have been present for years without being fully recognised or understood affecting childhood, experiences of school and relationships with parents, friends and authority figures.
As an adult you may find yourself feeling stuck, overwhelmed or frustrated by patterns that are difficult to shift, even when you are trying hard to make changes.
Counselling or Psychotherapy can help to make sense of you, your thoughts, responses and actions. With greater awareness decisions can be made from a more informed and regulated perspective.
Rebecca offers neuroaffirming ADHD counselling and support
to adults and couples in the UK, Singapore and Worldwide.
Neuroaffirming therapy
My approach to ADHD in therapy and life is neuroaffirming.
How I view ADHD
For me, a neuroaffirming approach means seeing ADHD as something to understand rather than simply something to treat. It means keeping an open mind, continuing to learn, and looking beyond the individual to consider the world they are living in.
Neurodivergent and Neurotypical
Both neurostyles have strengths and difficulties. Understanding the differences in communication, behaviour and internal processes is essential for living well with or alongside ADHD.
Therapy I offer
I provide ADHD therapy and support for adults, couples and partners navigating the impact of ADHD at work, at home and in relationships.
Informed Approach
My work is informed by specialist ADHD training, ongoing professional development and learning from people with lived experience, alongside my own experience of living with a neurodivergent partner.
ADHD Qualified
My work is informed by specialist ADHD training, ongoing professional development and learning from people with lived experience, alongside my own experience of living with a neurodivergent partner.
No matter where you are on your journey with ADHD, it is never too late to start learning about how to make life easier.
ADHD and couples
When one partner in a relationship has ADHD, feelings of love, trust, safety and care can start to feel like complex and uncertain.
Love is founded upon many things - trust, intimacy communication and connection. For some couples, feelings of love can break down when ADHD symptoms and the partners response to them, overrun the relationship.
You may find yourselves having the same arguments repeatedly, feeling misunderstood, disconnected or frustrated despite genuinely caring about one another.
What often looks like a relationship problem can sometimes be linked to the way ADHD is showing up beneath the surface.
If ADHD is playing a part in how your relationship feels please get in touch - there are resources for both the ADHD partner and the neurotypical partner that can help and prevent the complete breakdown of the relationship.
ADHD can challenge us to question what we consider “normal”, which expectations come from a predominantly neurotypical society.
