ADHD

Neurodiversity

Living with ADHD means your brain regulates attention, energy, emotions, and motivation differently. It’s not about effort or discipline, but about how the nervous system processes stimulation and focus. ADHD can affect daily functioning in subtle or significant ways and is often misunderstood, especially when struggles aren’t outwardly visible.

Indicators

ADHD can show up as difficulty staying focused, starting or finishing tasks, managing time, or keeping things organized. You may feel mentally overstimulated, restless, or constantly “on,” even when you’re tired. Emotional intensity is also common—frustration, irritability, or feeling easily overwhelmed by small stressors. Over time, these challenges can impact self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being, especially when they’re misunderstood or dismissed.

How therapy can help

Therapy can support greater self-understanding, emotional regulation, and practical strategies tailored to how your brain works. The goal isn’t to “fix” ADHD, but to reduce distress and support a more sustainable, balanced life.
