ADHD Counselling
Specialised ADHD Counselling for Adults
At Safe Haven Psychotherapy & Hypnotherapy, Worcestershire, we are a certified ADHD Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) and offer specialised counselling for individuals diagnosed with ADHD. Our tailored therapy sessions are designed to provide personalised support for those living with ADHD, Autism and AuDHD. Whether you are professionally diagnosed or self-diagnosed, we are here to help.
I learned I had ADHD as an adult in mid-life. To be honest, I can't say it was really a surprise, but finding out allowed me to learn about the biological effects of ADHD, how it develops, changes over our life-span (for example impulsive movement is less evident as you get older), the health effects and co-morbid conditions and that ADHD is genetic.
If you suspect that you are an adult with ADHD, understanding your behaviours and processing can be the most empowering feeling. If you know what it is then you can do something about it - right?
Understanding is key to being able to explore, adapt, manage and develop yourself in a new light. For me, never being able to find things (or remember where I put them, or sometimes if I had even had them in the first place!) really knocked my self-esteem. I knew I wasn't stupid, but for much of my life I felt it because I wasn't like others at school, at work, in relationships etc. If any of this sounds familiar it may be that you have ADHD (looking at a parent and identifying whether you think they have ADHD can be a really good indicator!).
Therapy sessions for ADHD allow you to explore who you are, how you interact and where you fit. It gives you knowledge about being neurodivergent and tools to adapt and make it work for you.
Although I am not able to diagnose (this should only be done by someone who is medically trained), I can discuss your options moving forward, as well as learning about and accepting where you are right now, giving you everything you need to move forward with your life.
Online Sessions Available
Sessions are available in person or online. If you would like more information please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Personalised Counselling for Neurodivergence
Our counselling sessions for neurodivergent individuals with ADHD, Autism or AuDHD are tailored to address their unique needs. We provide psycho-education to help understand the genetic, social, and psychological aspects of ADHD, allowing our clients to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their issues. We can explore where you are, your strengths and your challenges and look at how you make ADHD work for you.
Being neurodivergent can be challenging and isolating. Often 'being different' can be seen as a hurdle to overcome. By looking at your journey and experiences and understanding your 'inner world' therapy can help you to understand what is within your control and empower you to move forward.
Counselling for neurodiversity can also help you identify if you want or need a formal diagnosis and/or medication, signposting you for further medical support or formal diagnosis options. As a therapist working with neurodiversity I am able to signpost you further, however I am not medically trained and therefore unable to diagnose ADHD, AuDHD or Autism on your behalf.
For some people being formally diagnosed may be beneficial in education or the workplace, however it is not essential and regardless of whether you go down that route or self-diagnose, ADHD therapy can help you to find ways to understand your thoughts and behaviours and take control.
Nature Therapy and ADHD
Integrative psychotherapy, including nature therapy, can be highly beneficial for individuals with neurodiversity. Our nature therapy sessions offer a holistic approach to healing, providing a serene and calming environment that complements traditional counselling methods. It can be hard to focus with ADHD, AuDHD or Autism and nature therapy offers an opportunity to indulge in the desire to keep moving, allowing a more sustained focusing ability, particularly with 'walk & talk' therapy.
