What is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder?
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is more than just a buzzword – it’s a neurodevelopmental condition that can shape the way adults experience daily life. For many, ADHD means juggling challenges with attention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity, which can make time management, emotional regulation, and social interactions feel overwhelming.These are key areas where individuals with ADHD often experience challenges. But with the right support, these challenges can be transformed into opportunities for growth.
At our practice, our experienced clinical psychologists understand how deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects adults in unique ways. Through ADHD therapy and ADHD counselling services, we help you develop strategies to manage symptoms and thrive. Our approach often includes cognitive behavioural therapy, which is proven to support emotional regulation and improve mental health. Whether you’re looking to boost your focus, organise your day, or simply feel more in control, our psychologists are here to support you every step of the way.
Once you understand how ADHD can shape your day-to-day life, the next step is finding the kind of support that truly gets you – and that’s where our work begins.

This process is designed to be as comfortable and supportive as possible, giving you space to share your experiences and challenges. Our psychologists use evidence-based approaches to carefully review your medical history, symptoms, and behaviour patterns, ensuring an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan tailored just for you.

Emotional Regulation and Management
Emotional regulation is a key area where ADHD therapy can make a profound impact. Many people with ADHD experience strong emotional responses that can feel overwhelming or difficult to manage, sometimes leading to challenges in relationships or daily routines. By working with a psychologist, you’ll receive evidence-based support to better understand your emotions and develop practical tools for managing them.
Therapy provides a safe space to explore emotional triggers and patterns, helping you build emotional insight and resilience. With the right support, you can learn healthier ways to cope with stress, anxiety, and even co-occurring conditions like depression. As you strengthen your emotional regulation skills, you’ll notice improvements in your mental health, communication, and overall wellbeing. This journey not only enhances your self-awareness but also empowers you to respond to life’s ups and downs with greater confidence and calm.
Feeling Supported Throughout the Process
Feeling supported is at the heart of effective ADHD therapy. At The Indigo Project, our psychologists create a non-judgmental, collaborative space where you can openly explore your experiences and challenges. You’ll be met with understanding, practical guidance, and evidence-based tools tailored to your everyday life.
Therapy isn’t just about managing symptoms, it’s about strengthening self-esteem, building confidence, and creating habits that help you feel more grounded and in control. With the right support behind you, you can develop new skills, feel less isolated, and move through life with more clarity and ease. We’re here to walk alongside you at every step of your ADHD journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does ADHD get worse with age?
ADHD doesn’t usually get worse with age, but its symptoms can show up differently as life becomes more demanding. Many adults notice challenges with organisation, emotional regulation, or focus, especially when managing work, relationships, or family responsibilities. Factors like stress, sleep issues, or chronic fatigue can make symptoms feel more intense. Therapy can help you build strategies that improve daily functioning and increase your sense of control.

The Indigo Project supports adults with ADHD through practical, evidence-based therapy tailored to your strengths and challenges.

Get started with us here.
How do you get diagnosed for ADHD?
It’s important to note that The Indigo Project does not currently offer ADHD assessments. An ADHD diagnosis is completed by a qualified psychologist or psychiatrist who will explore your symptoms, history, strengths, and challenges through structured interviews or questionnaires. This helps determine how ADHD is affecting your daily life and what support you may need. Once diagnosed, treatment options like therapy can help you manage symptoms and improve overall functioning.
What causes ADHD?
ADHD doesn’t have one single cause — it’s influenced by a combination of genetic, neurological, and environmental factors, and often runs in families. Research also shows differences in the brain areas responsible for attention, motivation, and emotional regulation. What’s important to know is that ADHD is not caused by poor parenting, too much screen time, or a lack of discipline. With the right support and understanding, people with ADHD can build rewarding, meaningful lives.
