Work With Your Brain, Not Against It A 6-Week 1-1 Programme for ADHD Adults & Young People

Your brain moves fast

It makes connections others miss. It hyperfocuses like nothing else. It just doesn't run on other people's timelines.I have ADHD myself, and I've spent 15 years as a psychotherapist supporting adults to understand and work with their own minds — not force them into someone else's system. 

A 6-week, Neurodiversity affirming 1-1 programme, delivered over video so it fits around your life — not the other way round.

What we'll work on together

Over six sessions, we'll make space for:

• Understanding your own patterns — what drains you, what lights you up
• Tools that actually stick — built around how you think, not how you're "supposed" to think
• Untangling shame spirals, overwhelm and task paralysis
• Routines flexible enough to survive real life
• Trusting your own way of doing things

The 6 Weeks

Week 1 — Getting to Know Your Brain

We start by mapping your patterns: energy, focus, motivation, and what tends to trip you up. No generic ADHD checklist — this is about your specific wiring. We'll set a direction for the programme based on what actually matters to you. 

Week 2 — What Drains You, What Lights You Up

A closer look at the difference between tasks/environments that deplete you and those that genuinely energise you. We start identifying where you've been working against your own grain — and where you've already found things that work, even if you didn't trust them.

Week 3 — Tools That Actually Stick

Most productivity advice isn't built for ADHD brains, which is why it doesn't last. Here we build (or adapt) practical tools and strategies shaped around how you actually think, not a neurotypical template.

Week 4 — Untangling Overwhelm and Task Paralysis

We dig into what's happening in moments of shutdown or paralysis, and build a personal toolkit for getting unstuck — grounded in CBT and EMDR-informed approaches where relevant, not willpower.

Week 5 — Routines That Flex With Real Life

Rigid routines tend to collapse the first time life gets messy. This week is about designing structure with built-in flexibility, so a bad day or a change of plan doesn't mean starting from scratch.

Week 6 — Trusting Your Own Way

We bring it together: consolidating what's worked, naming what you now understand about your own patterns, and building confidence in your own way of doing things going forward — plus a plan for maintaining momentum after the programme ends.
