Understanding ADHD and How Therapy Can Help Adults on the Gold Coast

Looking for ADHD therapy on the Gold Coast? Learn how a psychologist can help adults manage focus, organisation, and emotional regulation with a holistic approach.

ADHD in Adults: More Than Just Being Distracted

When people think of ADHD, they often picture a restless child bouncing around a classroom. But ADHD in adults can look very different—and often goes undiagnosed for years.

If you’re an adult living with ADHD, you might notice:

  • Difficulty starting or finishing tasks

  • Procrastination, even for important deadlines

  • Forgetfulness, misplaced items, or missed appointments

  • Feeling overwhelmed by everyday responsibilities

  • Struggling to focus on one task at a time

  • Emotional ups and downs that feel intense and exhausting

Many people describe ADHD as having a “busy brain” that doesn’t switch off, yet sometimes also feels flat or unmotivated. If this sounds familiar, therapy can help you understand your brain better—and work with it, not against it.

How Therapy Can Help Adults with ADHD

A psychologist can work with you to:

  • Develop practical strategies for organisation, time management, and focus

  • Build emotional regulation skills to help manage frustration or overwhelm

  • Identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns that impact self-esteem

  • Support your relationships, which can sometimes be affected by ADHD symptoms

  • Explore holistic lifestyle changes, like mindfulness, movement, and structured routines

At Satya Psychology, I use evidence-based therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based strategies. These can be tailored to your unique needs, strengths, and goals.

Holistic ADHD Support

ADHD isn’t just about focus—it’s about how you experience your whole life. That’s why I take a holistic approach, looking at mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing. For some clients, this might mean incorporating gentle movement, mindfulness, or even walk and talk therapy as part of the process.

Flexible Options for ADHD Therapy

Life with ADHD can be busy and unpredictable, so flexibility matters. I offer:

  • In-person sessions on the Gold Coast, including Broadbeach, Burleigh Heads, Southport, Robina, and Coolangatta

  • Telehealth psychology sessions for convenience—ideal if you’re working, studying, or caring for a family

  • Walk and talk therapy for clients who benefit from movement and a change of scenery

Taking the First Step

If you’ve been wondering whether ADHD could be affecting your life, or you’re looking for strategies to work with your brain rather than against it, therapy can help.

Contact Satya Psychology today to book ADHD therapy on the Gold Coast, either in person, via telehealth, or outdoors with walk and talk sessions.
