Adults suffering from ADHD struggle more than kids due to a number of reasons: childhood safeguards that helped them overcome inattention and impulsivity to be able to perform socially mandated but mundane necessities of life are no longer available. Fortunately, behavioral psychotherapy combined with medication can help.

Counseling for adults with ADHD typically consists of psychological counseling (psychotherapy). Cognitive behavioral therapy could be a part of the program.

Support Groups

Support groups can be a great source of peace, as members discover -- often for the first time in their lives- that they are not isolated. Many of these groups are run by peer but there are also national organizations that sponsor regional educational and networking events. ADDitude magazine offers a number of virtual peer-support groups to its readers. These include groups for adults who have been diagnosed with ADHD and couples with ADHD as well as intellectually gifted adults, and those looking for jobs.

Meetings are typically scheduled at times and locations, but online support groups exist to help people who have scheduling conflicts connect with others from across the country. A quick Google search can provide a wide range of virtual options and new groups are formed all the time as ADDA readers share their unique needs and life experiences. Many of these groups are free, but some charge a nominal cost to cover costs for advertising and pay speakers.
