Parental Consultations
Many parents of adults and older teenagers with ADHD have concerns about their offspring's wellbeing and how best to support them. Sometimes it's not easy to know what to do or where to go for support. As a parent of an adult or a teenager approaching adulthood, it can be challenging to support them whilst maintaining or developing their independence. I offer stand alone consultations where we meet online for 50 minutes to discuss your concerns and think together about what might already be helping and what might need to happen in future. I often encourage people to bring a "shopping list" of queries if they have one that we can address. Parents report finding these consultations very helpful and there is always the possibility of having another at a future time if appropriate.
