Individual and group treatment

Build practical ADHD skills without ignoring the emotions underneath.

Choose individual psychotherapy for a plan built around your life, or a structured skill group for the core executive-function toolkit with peers.

Two useful routes

Practical skills work best when the clinical pattern is understood.

ADHD systems fail when they depend on perfect motivation, perfect memory or a week with no surprises. Treatment builds external supports and flexible recovery plans instead.

✓ One-to-one depth when the picture is complex
✓ Group structure when shared practice helps
✓ Clinical counselling—not generic coaching

Individual psychotherapy

A plan built around your actual calendar

One-to-one care is useful when ADHD interacts with anxiety, burnout, relationships, work pressure or longstanding self-criticism.

Understand

Map the pattern precisely

Identify where activation, working memory, emotion, avoidance and environment interact.

Build

Create systems outside your head

Use visible cues, realistic scheduling, decision rules, environmental changes and accountability that do not rely on willpower.

Repair

Work with the emotional cost

Address shame, rejection sensitivity, conflict, missed expectations and the “I should be able to do this” story.

The skill curriculum

What practical treatment targets

The goal is not to become perfectly organized. It is to reduce friction and recover faster when a system slips.

01

Attention and activation

Mindfulness, cueing and the 10-minute rule for beginning before urgency takes over.

02

Planning and time

External calendars, time-blocking, transition buffers and scheduling based on actual capacity.

03

Organization and distraction

Physical and digital systems, environmental design and fewer places for important information to disappear.

04

Thinking and relapse prevention

Catch all-or-nothing stories, review breakdowns without shame and build a reset process.

Choose the format

Which format makes sense?

The right format depends on privacy needs, complexity, learning style and whether the main barrier is mechanics or emotional load.

Individual

Choose one-to-one therapy if…

You want flexible scheduling, privacy and a plan built around a specific job, household and clinical history.

Skill group

Choose the group if…

You want the core toolkit, live practice and peers who understand the pattern without needing personal deep-dives.

Signal Group

Consider Signal if…

Rejection sensitivity, shame, emotional intensity and relationships are as important as the practical systems.

What you keep

Treatment should leave something usable

Insight matters, but the work is designed to create tools you can return to after treatment ends.

Systems

A small number of durable supports

Fewer moving parts, clearer homes for information and a recovery plan for inevitable disruption.

Language

A more accurate explanation

Replace lazy, careless or undisciplined with a specific model of activation, capacity and regulation.

Resources

STG Online Clinic access

Use 25+ self-paced courses and tools between sessions and after the formal program ends.

Treatment questions

What adults often ask

Is this coaching or psychotherapy?

The work includes practical executive-function methods but is delivered as clinical counselling or psychotherapy, with assessment, formulation and scope-aware treatment.

How many sessions are typical?

Individual plans vary. The current individual pathway is organized around approximately ten sessions with review points, while group programs follow defined curricula.

Can therapy help if medication already works?

Yes. Medication can improve access to attention and reward, but it does not automatically teach planning, communication, emotional regulation or recovery after disruption.

What if I keep abandoning every system?

That is treatment information, not failure. The work identifies why a system required too much memory, motivation or stability and redesigns it.

Build one system that can survive Tuesday

Stop rebuilding your life from scratch every two weeks.

The screening helps determine whether individual therapy, a skills group or the Signal Group is most appropriate for your goals.
