Chester ADHD Therapy – How can we help?

Adults and teenagers with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) face particular challenges in their day-to-day lives, yet having ADHD is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, many young people with ADHD are attuned to the unique edge that the symptoms of ADHD can give them. These include the ability to hyper-focus on things they love or are interested by; being driven by new experiences and eager to try new things; having a positive approach to challenges; and being spontaneous and flexible. The latest medical research shows that both CBT and  mindfulness-based interventions can help you manage difficult symptoms of ADHD.

At Chester ADHD therapy all our therapists are mental-health professionals qualified and registered. Between us we have over 75 years of experience specialising in all aspects of mental health. Our therapies include mindfulness training, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), mindful cognitive behavioural therapy (MCBT) and  ACT ( acceptance & compassionate therapy).
