ADHD Counseling
Have you recently noticed that you…
Get “lost” in things that you are interested in, but can’t focus on things you don’t enjoy?
Often get side-tracked by things that pop into your head that results in getting off task?
Find yourself missing deadlines and avoiding or procrastinating with things that require more in-depth thought?
Are quick to react and say things or make decisions without slowing down to consider the consequences?
Here are some common symptoms of Adult ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder):
- Problems with planning and executing tasks efficiently
- Difficulty with time management with the inability to anticipate how long a project will take to complete
- Forgetfulness no matter how clearly instructions are presented

- Trouble with detail-oriented work which can lead to mistakes and errors
- Challenges with getting started and staying on task with things that feel boring or repetitive
- Impulsivity or blurting out things without thinking them through or considering the consequences of words expressed
- Hyperactivity, trouble sitting still, or internal agitation/restlessness
- Frequently talking over others or interrupting
