ADHD
Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
I have ADHD myself and lived with it undiagnosed for much of my life, so I understand firsthand how deeply it can affect confidence, relationships, work, emotional regulation, and everyday functioning. Since my diagnosis, I have done extensive research and additional training in this area, while also developing a much deeper understanding of the patterns that can sit underneath years of struggle, overwhelm, shame, and feeling misunderstood. Having a therapist who genuinely understands ADHD, with both personal and professional experience, can make a real difference. I bring both to my work, helping clients understand their minds more clearly, cultivate self-compassion, and receive practical support. My approach is less about labels and more about understanding how your mind works, what keeps repeating, and how you can build a life that fits you better. For some people, finally having a diagnosis can feel incredibly validating and freeing. For others, labels can start to feel limiting or become part of how they define themselves in ways that are not always helpful. What matters most to me is helping you understand yourself more deeply, feel more empowered, and recognise both your struggles and your strengths.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
It was an interesting journey for me as I discovered my ADHD traits, and learned new ways of dealing with certain situations. I feel it is important to have some understanding that you might do things differently from a lot of others, and to find ways which work for you. We all process in our own unique way, and a strategy that works for others, might not work for you. Together we will work out what difficulties you face, and try to find the best ways for you to make the changes that suit your way of doing things.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
I am a late diagnosed therapist who has an ADHD diagnosis so I know first hand the challenges that self-diagnosed and medically diagnosed people face. I have found that neurodivergent clients naturally gravitate towards me, and now I have my diagnosis it all makes sense! It’s so lovely being able to have that immediate understanding of things that neurotypical people just don’t experience, saving the need to over explain and welcoming in supposed “weirdness”. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Cardiff's identity as the Welsh capital creates a therapy culture shaped by Wales's distinct national identity — including a meaningful demand for Welsh-language therapy, particularly for clients who find expressing emotional complexity most natural in their first language. Cardiff University and Cardiff Metropolitan University maintain active clinical training programs, and the city's large student population generates sustained demand for therapists addressing academic pressure, identity, and young adult transitions. Cardiff and Vale University Health Board provides NHS mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Pontcanna, Roath, and Cardiff Bay. The city's growing diversity, driven by university populations and recent immigration, is increasing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
