How it works

Builds compensatory strategies for executive function deficits. Reduces secondary anxiety and depression that commonly develop alongside ADHD. Provides structured problem-solving for ADHD-specific challenges.

Most effective as an adjunct to medication in adults. Requires an ADHD-trained therapist. Results vary — ADHD CBT is skills-focused, not insight-focused, which suits some more than others.

Finding a practitioner

Seek a qualified and registered practitioner. In Australia, check AHPRA (ahpra.gov.au) for registered health practitioners including physiotherapists, psychologists, and Chinese medicine practitioners.
