Working With Us
What ADHD Support Can Help With
Starting More Easily
Getting started is often the hardest part. We work on lowering the entry barrier to tasks, so you’re not waiting for the “right mood” or a deadline scare to begin.
When Systems Keep Failing You
If you’ve tried apps, planners, templates, and routines that worked for a week and then died, we look at why. Then we build lighter systems that fit how you operate.
Improve Capacity
Some weeks look reasonable on paper but are still too heavy in reality. We help you plan around mental and emotional capacity and work on ways to improve ‘time blindness.’
Effective Communication
Finding (the right) words under pressure is hard. We work on scripts, boundaries, and clearer ways to communicate needs, limits, and expectations without over-explaining yourself.
Transition Point Friction
ADHD friction often shows up during transitions (mornings, task switching, ending the day, role changes). We build simple reset points so the whole day doesn’t derail after one slip-up.
Shame Loops And Self-Trust
Many adults with ADHD carry a long history of self-criticism. We work on interrupting shame loops and rebuilding self-trust through small, repeatable wins.
When “Managing” Is Still Exhausting
Are you coping technically but still feeling constantly tired? We focus on lightening the load and improving how sustainable your days feel.
Our Related Services
ADHD Coaching
ADHD coaching is practical support for day-to-day life. We help you build a structure that fits your attention and capacity so you can plan, prioritise, start, and follow through. Sessions often focus on routines, time awareness, task initiation, decision fatigue, and simple systems that hold up when life is busy.
Therapeutic ADHD Coaching
This is our hybrid service that combines coaching and counselling in one space. Some sessions are tool-focused and structured. Others need room for emotional support, identity work, or patterns that keep repeating. It’s a good fit if you want practical change, and you also want support for what sits underneath the sticking points.
ADHD Counselling
Counselling is a space to work with the emotional load that often comes with ADHD. This can include burnout, anxiety, relationship patterns, self-esteem, shame, masking, or the impact of a late diagnosis. Sessions are paced, supportive, and focused on helping you understand yourself more clearly.
ADHD And Autism Assessments
Our assessments take a whole-person approach, looking at your history and current experience, including overlapping traits such as autism, anxiety, and burnout.
Careers And Workplace Support
Work can be one of the biggest pressure points for adults with ADHD. We support clients with boundaries, communication, workload planning, performance stress, and burnout prevention. This can be coaching-led, counselling-led, or a mix, depending on what you need.
Training & Consulting Services
Leadership And Business Coaching
Support for neurodivergent professionals and leaders navigating responsibility, growth, and visibility at work. Work can include executive coaching, organisational strategy, and neuro-inclusive leadership development, focusing on decision-making, communication, and workplace systems that work in practice.
Workplace Neuro-Inclusion
We work with organisations to build neuro-inclusive systems. This can include training, advisory support, recruitment and onboarding improvements, and changes that help teams communicate and work together more effectively.
Clinical Training And Supervision
Training and supervision for practitioners who want neuroaffirming, ethical, clinically informed support. Sessions are tailored to your role, scope, and the people you work with.
What Support Often Changes First
Many clients notice they can start tasks with less friction, recover faster after hard days, and rely less on panic to get moving. They also tend to feel more confident asking for what they need, without over-explaining or second-guessing themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I might have ADHD as an adult?
Recognising Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in adults can be tricky, especially if you’ve spent years masking or compensating. Many people notice patterns like inconsistent focus, time blindness, overwhelm, emotional swings, or burnout cycles. If you’re exploring ADHD in adults and want support, you don’t need to have everything figured out (or a formal diagnosis) before you book.
What happens in a first session, and is it a coaching or therapy session?
Your first session is a space to share what’s currently hard, what you’ve already tried, and what you want to change. Depending on the service you book, it may feel more like a coaching session or a therapy session.
Can you help with emotional regulation and mental health concerns?
Yes. Many adults with ADHD are also working through mental health concerns like anxiety, burnout, or low mood. We can support emotional regulation as part of the work, and we also keep an eye on areas that sometimes overlap with ADHD, such as eating disorders or other patterns that affect well-being.
Do you offer worklife coaching for adults with ADHD?
Yes. Our worklife coaching supports ADHD in adults who are managing workplace pressure, communication, boundaries, and workload planning. We also help you work with personal strengths so your approach at work fits your capacity and attention style.
Is social skills training part of ADHD coaching?
It can be, depending on what you need. Some people want support with social confidence, communication, and handling feedback or conflict. Where “social skills training” is relevant, we focus on practical, respectful strategies that feel authentic rather than scripted.
How do I access sessions from Geelong?
We offer telehealth access via secure online appointments, so you can attend sessions from Geelong and surrounding areas without needing to travel.
