Starting ADHD therapy

What is ADHD therapy?

At Thriveworks, we offer ADHD therapy, which is an effective treatment for managing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms such as inattention, inability to sit still, and lack of self-control. It can be used as an alternative to ADHD medication or used in tandem.

How does ADHD therapy work?

ADHD therapy works by using behavioral interventions — focusing on helping the individual develop organization skills, improve time management, and work on adaptive behaviors. A range of therapies are effective in helping people manage their ADHD and, sometimes, both individual and family therapy are important, particularly when the individual with ADHD symptoms is a child.

Symptoms of ADHD

Common symptoms of ADHD include:

  • Inattention and difficulty focusing on tasks
  • Impulsivity and acting without thinking
  • Hyperactivity or restlessness

Can ADHD develop as a coping mechanism?

ADHD is not a coping mechanism—but is instead affected by both genetics and environmental factors. The skilled therapists at Thriveworks in Phoenix, AZ know how to treat the unique triggers and stressors that may influence the severity of someone’s ADHD symptoms.

Can someone with ADHD lead a normal life?

Yes—many individuals with ADHD live successful, ‘normal’ lives. Individuals with ADHD are not abnormal.

What kind of therapy is best for ADHD?

Common approaches to ADHD therapy include medication management, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral therapy, psychoeducation, and parent training.

Is ADHD counseling conducted in person or online?

ADHD counseling is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability.

How long does ADHD counseling last?

The length of ADHD therapy can differ based on individual requirements and treatment objectives, spanning from a few weeks to several months or extending further, contingent on progress and personal needs.

ADHD: Common Symptoms and Types

There are three main types of ADHD — the inattentive type, the hyperactive/impulsive type, and the combined type. People can exhibit either a set of symptoms from one type or live with a combination of symptoms from both types.

Here are some of the most common ADHD symptoms:

  • Difficulty concentrating on tasks
  • Trouble listening or paying attention
  • Losing items
  • Being easily distracted or forgetful
  • Disliking time-consuming tasks
  • Fidgeting or restlessness
  • Interrupting others
  • Blurting out answers in school
  • Impulsivity
  • Trouble staying still

These symptoms can make it difficult to navigate work, school, or other focus-heavy activities. People with ADHD have a higher chance of dealing with another mental health issue like anxiety, bipolar disorder, or depression. Working with a mental health professional can help relieve symptoms of ADHD and concurrent disorders.

What Does ADHD Therapy Look Like?

Therapy for ADHD usually focuses on teaching time management skills, organizational strategies, or ways to control impulsive behavior. There are a few different therapeutic methods that can be used to treat ADHD, including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

Family therapy can be especially helpful when a child is dealing with ADHD so the family members learn how to support the child’s growth and development. Medication is another tool that can help manage ADHD symptoms for some people.
