Understanding ADHD: Navigating Life with Support and Strategies

Living with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can present unique challenges in daily life, affecting focus, organisation, and emotional regulation. At Islington Therapy House, we recognise the complexities of ADHD and offer tailored support to help individuals manage symptoms and thrive.

 

What Is ADHD?

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition characterised by patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects children and adults, influencing various aspects of life, including academic performance, work responsibilities, and interpersonal relationships.

Common Challenges Associated with ADHD

Individuals with ADHD may experience:

  • Difficulty sustaining attention: Struggling to focus on tasks or conversations.
  • Impulsivity: Acting without considering consequences, leading to challenges in decision-making.
  • Hyperactivity: Feeling restless or having trouble staying still can be disruptive in structured settings.
  • Disorganisation: Facing challenges in managing time, tasks, and personal belongings.
  • Emotional regulation difficulties: Experiencing intense emotions and difficulty managing stress.

These symptoms can impact self-esteem and lead to feelings of frustration or overwhelm.

How Can Therapy Help?

Therapy provides a supportive environment to explore the impact of ADHD on daily life and develop effective coping strategies. At Islington Therapy House, our therapists work collaboratively with clients to:

  • Enhance self-awareness: Understanding how ADHD affects thoughts, behaviours, and emotions.
  • Develop organisational skills: Implementing tools and routines to manage tasks and responsibilities.
  • Improve emotional regulation: Learning techniques to manage stress, frustration, and other intense emotions.
  • Strengthen relationships: Addressing communication challenges and building healthy interpersonal connections.
  •  

We utilise evidence-based approaches tailored to individual needs, ensuring respectful and non-judgmental support.
