"I help people that are struggling to cope with ADHD to learn more about how your mind works, why you do the things you do, and what strategies you can put in place to live in a more carefree stress-free world for you and everyone around you"
Find the right ADHD Therapist
It’s so important that you find an ADHD therapist who really understands what ADHD is and how to treat it. As someone living with ADHD overcoming many adversities associated to ADHD, a parent of children with ADHD, a specialist therapist and coach treating people with ADHD, and a Certified Brain Health Professional, I am in a privileged position to provide experience, knowledge, education and strategies to help you use your SuperBrain effectively.
Why work with an ADHD Therapist?
An ADHD therapist will have professional accreditations in relation to understanding and working with people with ADHD, whereas coaching will normally be offered as a service once the emotional issues have been resolved by the therapist. My clinical training covers all aspects of living with ADHD, from understanding the neurodevelopment of the brain, ways to improve you and your family's life, and learning more about medication.
I am also experienced working with many issues associated with ADHD such as mental health disorders, behavioural issues, addictions and suicidal thoughts.
I am qualified in a number of different psychotherapy methods such as CBT, RTT and NLP as well as being a Clinical Trauma Professional and Certified Brain Health Professional to ensure I get the best results for my clients.

ADHD Enlightenment
“I wanted to understand my son more, why he was behaving the way he was, and how I could help him, because nothing I was doing was working, and it was daily warfare in the home. I felt burnt out. Sean has helped me see things from my son’s perspective in many ways, like how he can misinterpret my communications when I am not clear enough, and create his own (often inaccurate) story. It really is a game changer! Thank you!."
A Really Positive Experience
"Working with Sean was just a positive experience from start to finish. He talks you through exactly how things are going to work and really invests time in you to get to the source. Follow ups are consistent and relevant resources and materials are shared with you. It feels like a really safe environment to relax in while Sean gets to work. I’d really recommend as a way to tackle whatever your situation is.."
I Lost My Drive Focus and Happiness
“I had reached a point in my life where a lot had changed. This was all good change. Having children, working from home, being in a good paying stable job, potentially moving house with a bigger garden and scope to extend and beginning my business venture.
I know I will be back to Sean for further development down the line somewhere, but for now I am in a great pace and thank Sean for his help and work.”
Reach your goals in life
I have found that the one thing that the majority of my clients with ADHD have in common is that they feel that they are not reaching their true potential in life.
ADHD can hold you back from achieving your true goals in life, at home, at work or anywhere else. Especially if you do not understand how your mind works differently, and what strategies you can put in place to live a phenomenal life.
More clarity and focus
ADHD therapy is so effective because you are provided with the education, tools and coping mechanisms you need to feel empowered in managing your ADHD symptoms.
Many clients even find that once they apply this knowledge and strategies into their lives after their treatment, they can use the bursts of energy and extra focus that are part of their condition to their advantage!
Whether you are an adult or child with ADHD, or a parent or partner living with an ADHDer, this will change your life

What does an ADHD therapist do?
A typical ADHD therapist’s goal is to help change the behavior and thought patterns that make life with ADHD difficult.
Therapists will help you work through self-esteem issues that are common with ADHD, as well as teach coping techniques to control your symptoms and better manage tasks.
Sometimes therapists offer sessions to parents of young children with ADHD to teach them ways to support their children and become their best advocates.
Though ADHD looks different in children and adults, the root causes — from prefrontal cortex differences to the stress of living with ADHD — are often the same.
One vital way therapists help people heal from the stress and lack of motivation that often comes along with ADHD is by educating them on what ADHD is and how it impacts people.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a popular evidence-based method for ADHD therapy.
Standard ADHD therapy tactics also use behavioral therapy. This type of psychotherapy teaches you how to monitor your behavior and give yourself praise or rewards for controlling yourself or thinking before acting.
Which treatment is best for ADHD?
Many types of specialists can treat ADHD, each with their own specific skillset. For example, a psychologist or therapist can help people with ADHD manage symptoms and learn to cope with them, while an ADHD coach can help address specific needs and personal goals.
Research has found CBT is an effective treatment in helping adults living with ADHD develop new productive habits as well as increase self-esteem and happiness.
To be most effective, a therapist should have a specialty in working with people with ADHD and have several specific strategies geared toward the brain’s specific patterns.
An ADHD therapist will have a professional accreditations, whereas a coach is not required to have any.
In contrast to action-oriented ADHD coaching, therapeutic work is focused on healing, emotional regulation, and ADHD-specific strategies. Some experts believe coaching is most effective if clients work through their underlying emotional issues first.
