People with ADHD often have real strengths — creativity, energy, the ability to hyperfocus on things that interest them — alongside genuine difficulties with attention, organisation, restlessness, or impulsivity. The goal of support is not to "fix" a personality, but to understand how an individual's mind works and build the routines, skills, and strategies that let those strengths come through and the difficulties get in the way less.

Wondering whether what you're seeing is ADHD or something else? A psychological assessment is the clearest first step — book a session to talk it through.

Adult ADHD frequently sits alongside anxiety or low mood. If worry is part of your picture, see anxiety counselling too — treating both together works best.

Girls and women more often have the inattentive presentation, without the obvious hyperactivity that gets a child noticed. Instead of disrupting the classroom, they tend to daydream, lose focus quietly, over-prepare to keep up, and internalise the struggle — often becoming anxious, perfectionistic, or hard on themselves rather than visibly "difficult." Many become skilled at masking, which hides the difficulty but is exhausting to maintain.

If you've spent years feeling you're falling short despite trying hard, an assessment can be genuinely clarifying. Book a session to talk it through.

This is where psychological support makes a practical, everyday difference: not by asking someone to "focus harder," but by building the external structures and skills that take pressure off the executive functions that ADHD makes harder.

Support typically includes psychological assessment to understand attention, learning, and emotional patterns; therapy to address the anxiety, low self-esteem, or frustration that so often build up around ADHD; and concrete executive-function strategies — for organisation, routines, focus, and managing impulsivity — that fit real life. For children, this usually includes coaching and guidance for parents, since the right support at home and school makes an enormous difference.

As a clinical psychologist, Dr. Kohli does not prescribe medication. Where medication may be helpful — and for many people with ADHD it is one useful part of a plan — she works alongside a psychiatrist who can assess and prescribe, so the psychological and medical sides of care stay coordinated. The aim throughout is a plan built around the individual, not a one-size-fits-all label.

1. You reach out

   Book through the website or message the clinic on WhatsApp. You'll be offered a time that fits, in-clinic or online.

2. Understanding the picture

   The first session is about understanding the difficulties in detail — at home, at school, or at work — and how long they've been present.

3. Assessment where needed

   Dr. Kohli advises on whether a structured psychological assessment would help, and coordinates with a psychiatrist if a medical view is relevant.

4. A practical plan

   Together you'll shape a realistic plan — strategies, therapy, parent guidance, and next steps — built around the individual.
