ADHD Counselling Online UK

Support for overwhelm, burnout and feeling “too much” or not enough

Living with ADHD can feel overwhelming in ways that are hard to explain.

You might feel constantly “on the go” internally, while also struggling to get started or follow things through. At times, it can feel like your mind is racing, your energy is scattered, or everything becomes too much all at once.

I offer ADHD counselling online across the UK, providing a supportive space to better understand how your mind works and find ways of working with it, rather than against it.

How ADHD Can Feel

ADHD is often talked about in practical terms, but the emotional impact can be just as significant.

You might recognise:

  • Feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks

  • Starting things but finding it hard to finish

  • Difficulty focusing, or focusing too much on the “wrong” things

  • Racing thoughts or a busy, restless mind

  • Emotional ups and downs that feel intense or hard to manage

  • Feeling frustrated with yourself or like you’re falling short

Over time, this can lead to feelings of self-doubt, burnout, or believing there’s something “wrong” with you.

What to Expect

Starting counselling can bring up uncertainty, especially if you’ve felt misunderstood in the past.

Our first session is a space to talk about what’s been going on for you and to get a sense of whether working together feels like a good fit.

You don’t need to have everything organised or clearly explained.
We can begin wherever you are.

Online ADHD Counselling

Working online can offer flexibility and comfort, especially if structure, travel, or time pressures feel challenging.

Sessions take place via Zoom, allowing you to join from a space that feels familiar and manageable.

Many people find that online counselling:

  • Is easier to fit around changing routines

  • Reduces the pressure of getting to appointments

  • Feels more comfortable and less overwhelming

  • Allows for greater flexibility and consistency

How I Work with ADHD

My approach is understanding, collaborative, and adapted to you.

ADHD is not something that needs to be “fixed”. Instead, we can begin to understand how it shows up for you, and what support might help you feel more steady and able to cope.

Together, we might:

  • Explore patterns of overwhelm, avoidance, or burnout

  • Understand emotional responses and sensitivity

  • Look at how your attention and energy work

  • Develop ways of working that feel realistic and supportive

  • Build self-compassion and reduce self-criticism

We work at a pace that feels manageable, without pressure or expectation.

ADHD, Anxiety and Trauma

ADHD doesn’t exist in isolation. Many people also experience anxiety, overwhelm, or have had difficult past experiences.

You might find that:

  • Anxiety feels constant or difficult to manage

  • You feel easily overstimulated

  • You struggle to switch off or rest

We can gently explore how these experiences connect, helping you build a clearer and more compassionate understanding of yourself.
