Psychotherapy for Late-Diagnosed ADHD Adults

Receiving or considering an ADHD diagnosis in adulthood can bring relief, grief, anger, confusion, and a new way of understanding your life.

You may begin to look back at school, work, relationships, burnout, or self-criticism through a different lens.

I offer relational psychotherapy for late-diagnosed ADHD adults in Swansea, Carmarthen, and online across the UK.

You May Be Exploring

  • masking and exhaustion
  • shame or self-criticism
  • grief about the past
  • a changing sense of identity

A diagnosis can explain a great deal, but it does not automatically resolve the emotional impact of years spent trying to cope.

Therapy After Diagnosis

Therapy can provide space to make sense of what ADHD means for you personally, not just as a list of symptoms.

This may include understanding old survival strategies, relationship patterns, emotional intensity, or the pressure to appear more “together” than you feel.

I aim to offer therapy that is:

  • neurodivergence-aware
  • reflective and collaborative
  • emotionally attuned
  • respectful of your own pace

You Do Not Need Everything Worked Out

You do not need to arrive with certainty.

Some people come with a diagnosis. Some are waiting for assessment. Others are simply beginning to recognise patterns that may have been present for a long time.

Sessions

I offer:

  • face-to-face psychotherapy in Swansea
  • face-to-face psychotherapy in Carmarthen
  • online psychotherapy across the UK

Sessions last 50 minutes and are usually held weekly.

Booking

If you would like to arrange an initial session, you are welcome to book online.
