The approach here is integrative: ADHD-informed psychotherapy, hypnotherapy for emotional regulation, structure and executive support coaching, delivered inside a clear structure. It's not open-ended talking therapy — sessions are focused, and change is expected inside a sensible window.
The approach in practice
- Step 1
Review and adjust
Every few sessions we step back and check the direction — nothing is done to you without your say-so.
- Step 2
Bridge sessions with tools
You leave with practical tools so between-session weeks are worked, not wasted.
- Step 3
Consolidate the change
Change has to hold beyond the session. Self-hypnosis, a short practice or a home task keeps it embedded.
The evidence behind the work
Trust in therapy is earned session by session. It is also underwritten by proper credentials: BACP-registered, CNHC-registered on the PSA-accredited register, and GHSC-accredited for hypnotherapy.
- ✓ Therapy adjusted to how ADHD brains actually work — not a neurotypical model with tweaks.
- ✓ Hypnotherapy is used to reduce internal noise and improve emotional regulation.
- ✓ Sessions are structured to hold your attention, not lose it.
