ADHD & ND SUPPORT - EDMONTON & ST. ALBERT PSYCHOLOGISTS



More and more, we are realizing that Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is
more prevalent than we think. ADHD is usually diagnosed in childhood, but
recently, more adults have realized the struggles they had in childhood and are
exploring the possibility of having adult ADHD. ADHD, like most disorders exists
on a spectrum, what works for one person with ADHD may not work for another. Our
ADHD therapists explore how ADHD is impacting your life and work with you to
develop tools to improve work performance, personal struggles and relationships
and manage your ADHD symptoms. Our goal with ADHD counselling is not to try and
make you think and behave in a neurotypical box but instead to create your own
path where you thrive!

Understanding ADHD and Neurodiversity:

ADHD affects millions of people worldwide, with symptoms ranging from difficulty
concentrating and impulsivity to hyperactivity. Similarly, neurodiversity
encompasses a wide range of neurological differences, including autism,
dyslexia, and ADHD. While these conditions present challenges, they also bring
unique strengths and perspectives to the table. Our ADHD psychologists aim to
find these unique strengths with you.

Statistics:



According to the Centre for ADHD Awareness Canada (CADDAC), Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in
Canada, affecting 4-6% of adults and 5-7% of children, or approximately 1.8
million Canadians. In other words, 1 of every 21 people in the country has the
disorder. Everyone who has ADHD is impaired or has more difficulty than normal
with regulating their attention or focus.

Benefits of Psychotherapy for Managing ADHD and ND Symptoms:

Summit Counselling Service’s ADHD/ND psychologists at both our Edmonton and St.
Albert locations provide support for clients in the following areas:

 1. Skill Development: Therapy equips individuals with ADHD and ND with
    practical strategies to manage their symptoms effectively. ADHD Counselling
    provides valuable tools for navigating daily challenges, from organization
    skills to time management techniques.

 2. Emotional Regulation: Many individuals with ADHD and ND struggle with
    emotional regulation. Therapy helps cultivate emotional awareness and coping
    mechanisms, empowering individuals to navigate their emotions in a healthy
    and constructive manner.

 3. Improved Relationships: Communication difficulties and social challenges are
    common among individuals with ADHD and ND. Through counselling, individuals
    learn valuable communication skills and strategies for building and
    maintaining healthy relationships with others.

 4. Self-Acceptance and Empowerment: Counselling provides a safe and
    non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their identities and embrace
    their strengths. By fostering self-acceptance and empowerment, therapy paves
    the way for personal growth and fulfillment.

 5. Enhanced Academic and Professional Performance: With the right support and
    strategies, individuals with ADHD and ND can excel academically and thrive
    in their careers. Counselling helps identify academic and professional goals
    and provides tailored support to achieve them.

 6. Trauma Therapy: Growing up feeling different, struggling with academics and
    social relationships. Peers and parents are frustrated with you because they
    don’t understand why you can’t just “DO THE THING.” Feeling not good enough,
    feeling different, feeling… anything. Trauma is often present in people who
    have been formally or informally diagnosed as neuro-spicy. Processing this
    trauma, if evident, is an important aspect of our ADHD counselling process.



Our Approach:

Our psychologists take a holistic approach to ADHD and ND therapy, addressing
each individual's unique needs and strengths. Our experienced psychologists
specialize in evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
(CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Accelerated Resolution therapy
(ART), Play Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapies, Animal-Assisted Therapy and
Mindfulness-Based Therapies.

The psychology team at both our Edmonton and St. Albert offices believes in
collaboration and empowerment. We work closely with clients to develop
personalized treatment plans that align with their goals and aspirations. Our
goals are symptom management, personal growth, resilience, and overall
well-being.

Some areas of focus on ADHD counselling:



 * Memory and attention struggles

 * Motivation

 * Trauma

 * Self-esteem

 * Problem-solving

 * Negative thoughts

 * Anxiety

 * Depression

 * Relationships

 * Impulse control

 * Emotional regulation

Our therapists provide ADHD counselling for children, teens and adults. Our goal
with ADHD counselling is not to try and make you think and behave in a
neurotypical box but instead to find the tools that you connect with and work
well for you to create your own path where you thrive!
