What is ADHD Therapy?
There is no formal ADHD therapy modality, but rather, ADHD therapy is made up of an eclectic mix of modalities, skills, tools. At PRGRS therapy we utilize evidence based treatments. This includes a blend of DBT Therapy (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), ACT Therapy (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), some CBT Therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), as well as skills and tools that target executive functioning.
ADHD is a complex issue requiring a multifaceted approach. At PRGRS Therapy we teach practical and tactical skills and tools to address everyday struggles which include:
Distractibility
Disorganization
Procrastination
Impulse control
Forgetfulness
Time management issues
We also process through complex issues that occur as a result of living with ADHD. These issue include:
Low self esteem
Imposter syndrome
Deep rooted shame and guilt
Trauma
Perfectionism
How does ADHD Therapy Work?
Quality ADHD therapy begins by assessing the impact ADHD has on ones day to day functioning. At PRGRS we rely on quality measures and tools coupled with a strong knowledge of the client. This knowledge is obtained by building a solid working relationship with each client. Next, a personalized treatment plan is created together.
Depending on the client’s goals, a bespoke set of tools and skills are taught and implemented to address the most acute concerns. Progress is tracked and measured. Adjustments are made as needed to ensure consistent improvement. As treatment progresses, we anticipate that clients will begin to notice a decrease in their bothersome symptoms.
As clients learn skills and tools to better manage their ADHD, complex emotions, past histories, relationship patterns, and other deep level work is also done. This ensures that not only are the acute issues being addressed, but the deep rooted impacts of ADHD are also being resolved as well.
What Makes ADHD Therapy Different From Other Kinds of Therapy?
Unlike many therapies, ADHD therapy is comprised of multiple modalities. It must be customized to meet the needs of each unique client. ADHD therapy requires a deep knowledge of the condition coupled with a knowledge of evidence based skills and tools that can effect change in the areas of life impacted by ADHD.
Additionally, ADHD therapy is highly actionable and practical. Clients will walk away from sessions with tools and methods they can implement right away to see quick results.
When ADHD therapy is done well, clients achieve a greater sense of control over their lives.
ADHD Therapy Through PRGRS Therapy
At our practice, ADHD therapy typically involves a combination of evidence based DBT Therapy, ACT Therapy, and some CBT Therapy. Additionally, executive function skills are taught which will target issues such as time management, procrastination, emotion regulation, forgetfulness, distractibility, and other executive function issues. Progress is tracked, evaluated, and adjusted to ensure that progress is being made in the areas most important to the client.
In addition to the skills and tools, clients will also build a strong relationship with their therapist. A safe and supportive space is a priority at PRGRS Therapy. This cultivates an environment to process through underlying issues that permeate the life of someone living with ADHD (i.e. shame, guilt, frustration, etc.). This space can be used to process through relationship issues, shame/guilt, fear, traumas, and/or childhood experiences. At PRGRS Therapy we to treat ADHD on both the surface and at the deeper levels.
The PRGRS Therapy team is well versed in working with clients with ADHD. Some of our clinicians are ADHD-CCSP certified, and each team member at PRGRS is working towards this certification once they join the team. Additionally, the PRGRS Therapy team remains updated on effective treatments for ADHD through continuing education, conference attendance, and weekly supervision.
