Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterised by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

Though ADHD varies  in terms of how it appears, adults and children with ADHD often face unique challenges in various aspects of their lives, affecting everything from work and school life, to relationships and friendships with others.

ADHD is recognised as a spectrum, with individuals experiencing varying degrees of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

At Newcastle Psychologist & Counselling, our team of Psychologists, Therapists and ADHD Counsellors offer specialised ADHD counselling, empowering people with ADHD to manage their symptoms effectively and thrive in their daily lives.

Please note, we do not offer ADHD or Autism assessments.

Common ADHD Struggles

Although the issues caused by ADHD vary according to the individual, they often include:

  • Difficulty sustaining attention on tasks
  • Forgetfulness and frequent distractions
  • Challenges in organising tasks and activities
  • Hyperactivity and restlessness
  • Difficulty waiting turns or practicing patience
  • Impulsive decision-making
  • Procrastination and difficulty initiating tasks
  • Poor time estimation and planning skills
  • Impaired social skills and difficulty maintaining friendships.

As well as the practical and behavioural difficulties that might occur with ADHD, there are often also emotional difficulties that can lead to feelings of low self-esteem, low mood, and anxiety.  

Our team of Psychologists, Therapists and ADHD Counsellors in Newcastle are therefore also able to help you work through the emotional impact or effects of life with ADHD.

Counselling for People with ADHD in Newcastle

Our approach to helping through ADHD therapy in Newcastle is based around addressing your specific needs and difficulties, which can be unique to you. 

For some people, the attentional difficulties can cause appear as problems with memory, whereas others might face challenges with “rash decisions” or being impulsive.  There can also be emotional impacts from the effects of ADHD that can affect wellbeing (such as anxiety, depression, insomnia or other problems). 

Our aim is to help you manage your ADHD in a way that still allows you to function well in day to day life and reach your goals.

Working together with our clients, our team of psychologists and counsellors aim to identify the unique strengths of each individual. By providing tailored support, our goal is to equip people with the tools they need to navigate daily challenges, build resilience, overcome difficulty, and achieve their full potential.

With a number of evidence-based therapeutic approaches within our team, including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-focused Therapy, we can help people with ADHD to develop practical strategies for improving focus, organisation, time management and difficulties that might come with the difficulty.
