In this episode we are having a conversation about if CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) has a role to play in managing our ADHD presentations.

And for this conversation, CAMHS CBT therapist Eliza Brabbins has joined us to share her knowledge of this modality of therapy.

We talk about how CBT can be extremely helpful for managing various aspects of ADHD, but not all CBT is the same.

We also talk about what to expect from a therapy session as well as trying to understand what exactly you are struggling with and what you wish to get from therapy.

Talking about CBT and ADHD can not be fully done without mentioning the negative feedback in the press about treating ADHD presentations with CBT. With this in mind, our conversations covers making sure you get a therapist that you not only gel with but also and really importantly the therapist AND the therapy sessions are ADHD aware and the sessions adjusted for this.

Previous guest and ADHD Life coach joins me today to have a conversation about unmasking and more importantly how to unmask.

In this episode we talk about masking, what it is, why we do it and how we can look at starting the journey of removing this mask.

We talk about the differences in the type of masking that many of the general public do and how it compares to the masking of someone with ADHD.
