ADHD
Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist
Receiving or living with an ADHD diagnosis can bring many different experiences—relief, grief, confusion, validation, or a new way of making sense of yourself. Rather than making assumptions about what ADHD means, I'm interested in understanding your unique experience and the relationship you have with it.
My work is grounded in the belief that understanding comes before fixing. Together, we'll explore how your nervous system, relationships, personal history, and the broader context of your life have shaped the ways you move through the world. Alongside practical challenges, we'll pay attention to the emotional experience of living with ADHD and the patterns that may have developed in response to feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or different.
I draw on attachment-informed, embodied, and relational approaches to support greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and a stronger sense of agency. Above all, my approach is about understanding who you are, what has shaped you, and what you need now—not reducing you to a diagnosis.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
ADHD-like behaviour often emerges during development in an environment of absent, inconsistent or misattuned caregiving. It is often an adaptive response to the pain or discomfort of being left alone and bored at a very young age. I draw upon the work of Gabor Mate and others in helping you understand why you have ADHD-like behaviours, and how you can relate to them differently, supporting you to embrace greater agency, self-forgiveness, stability and healing.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Living with ADHD can feel like your brain is working against the systems everyone else seems to move through with ease — deadlines missed, follow-through that falls apart, a constant undercurrent of "why can't I just do this." If that sounds familiar, let's work together to help you build a life that actually fits how your mind works.
The first step in working with ADHD is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you — your brain is simply wired differently, and most of the world wasn't built with that wiring in mind. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore the patterns getting in your way and develop strategies rooted in how you actually think and function, not how you're "supposed to." My approach focuses on self-compassion, practical structure, and working with your strengths instead of against them.
You don't have to keep white-knuckling your way through. Let's take the first step toward a rhythm that finally feels sustainable.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
ADHD rarely shows up on its own. In the women I work with, it often sits alongside traits of dyslexia, dyspraxia or autism, overlapping rather than separate boxes, sometimes diagnosed only in adulthood, sometimes never formally diagnosed at all. I trained specifically in the emotional repercussions of dyslexia and neurodivergent learning differences, and I bring that lens to ADHD too: less about managing symptoms, more about understanding a mind that was likely misread for years, especially if you were also learning in a second language or a different culture's school system.
