ADHD is far more than difficulty focusing: it’s a unique way of thinking, learning, and moving through the world. This workshop invites you to explore ADHD through a neuro-affirming, strengths-based perspective that moves beyond outdated deficit models. Whether you’re an ADHDer yourself, supporting someone with ADHD, or working in education or health, this session will help you understand ADHD with clarity, compassion, and evidence-based insight.
What You’ll Learn
🌟 Seeing ADHD Through a Strengths-Based Lens
Challenge old stereotypes by looking at ADHD through a modern, neuro-affirming framework. We’ll explore the creativity, innovation, curiosity, and intuitive problem-solving commonly found in ADHD, and why these strengths deserve more recognition.
🌟 Understanding Attention, Motivation, and Executive Function
Discover how ADHD brains process information, shift focus, and stay motivated differently. We’ll unpack why certain tasks feel effortless while others feel impossible, and how these differences shape everyday routines, learning, and relationships.
🌟 Regulation, Sensory Needs, and the Nervous System
Explore how sensory input, movement, and energetic demand affect emotional regulation and overwhelm. We'll discuss practical ways to support transitions, reduce stress, and help ADHDers feel grounded and balanced.
🌟 Masking, Rejection Sensitivity, and Burnout
Understand why many ADHDers mask their struggles to “fit in,” the impact of rejection-sensitive experiences, and how chronic stress can lead to burnout. Learn what environmental and relational supports help reduce pressure and promote wellbeing.
🌟 Practical, Compassionate Strategies for Everyday Life
Leave with realistic, affirming tools that support autonomy, communication, routines, planning, co-regulation, and self-advocacy. These strategies emphasise flexibility, collaboration, and respect.
