One of the most valuable services the ADHD Foundation offers is ADHD counselling. This plays a vital role in helping individuals and families develop coping strategies, improve mental health, and build confidence.
ADHD Foundation Australia is dedicated to improving the quality of life for people with or affected by ADHD. With a commitment to raising awareness, reducing stigma, and offering practical support, the foundation provides essential resources for individuals, families, and professionals.
What does ADHD Counselling involve?
Counselling is a powerful tool for addressing the emotional, psychological, and behavioural aspects of ADHD. ADHD doesn’t just affect a person’s ability to focus or manage impulsivity. It often impacts their self-esteem, relationships, and overall mental well-being. The counsellors at ADHD Foundation Australia work closely with clients to provide guidance, helping them understand and manage their condition with tailored strategies.
Do I need to pay?
We fully understand the increased living costs, delays for mental health support and highly, sometimes overpriced services on offer to our ADHD Community across Australia. Therefore, the ADHD Foundation Australia has introduced a very successful and cost-effective counselling service to our ADHD community across Australia.
There is a small charge for the counselling services. If you would like to engage with a counsellor, please complete your details and submit them.
Who are our Counsellors?
The ADHD Foundation has engaged with Master of Counselling Students. These counsellors are in the final placement of their degree just before registration with PAFCA. Counsellors at the ADHD Foundation are people you can speak with to help you unravel and overcome difficulties in your life. They will listen to you in a non-judgmental, safe, and confidential way. You will be an active participant in the sessions.
How can ADHD Counselling help me?
It is important to note that Counsellors don’t diagnose issues, but they work with you to improve your mental health, help you understand yourself better and help you develop strategies and work towards goals. Counselling can help you gain new insight into situations and can improve your resilience.
In particular, counselling can benefit:
- Children and Adolescents with ADHD: Providing emotional support and teaching self-management strategies to cope with school, friendships, and personal development.
- Adults with ADHD: Addressing workplace challenges, relationship issues, and the day-to-day impacts of ADHD on adult life.
- Families: Offering a collaborative space to learn how ADHD affects the family dynamic and how everyone can contribute to creating a supportive environment.
