Ottawa Adult ADHD Therapy
With Waystone Psychology
ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders and is often associated with children. However, ADHD can persist into adulthood, where it continues to influence behavior, work, and relationships. Adults with ADHD may find it challenging to stay focused, regulate impulsive actions, or manage organizational tasks required for daily life.
Adults with ADHD may face a range of symptoms that can vary widely in their intensity and impact. These include issues with attention, impulsivity, and often, a unique presentation of hyperactivity. It can also interfere with achieving life goals, maintaining relationships, and performing daily activities.
