Join us for the second workshop in our ADHD counsellor training series, designed for professionals who want to better understand and support adults living with ADHD—whether diagnosed, self-identified, or exploring the possibility.
This full-day CPD event will explore how ADHD shows up in everyday life and how we, as counsellors, can help clients manage emotional dysregulation, executive dysfunction, and overwhelm.
🔹 What we’ll cover:
How ADHD impacts real-world functioning: work, relationships, routines, wellbeing
The lived experience of ADHD across a spectrum of presentations
Practical, adaptable strategies to support clients with time management, organisation, and focus
Tools for managing emotional dysregulation and sensory overwhelm
How to help clients build a personalised "coping toolbox"
Considerations when working with undiagnosed or late-diagnosed adults
✨ This workshop is interactive and reflective, with space to explore your client work, ask questions, and learn practical tools you can bring straight into the therapy room.
✔️ Ideal for counsellors working with neurodivergent clients or wanting to feel more confident supporting adult ADHD
✔️ Evidence-informed, inclusive, and grounded in real-life application
✔️ Certificate of CPD attendance provided
📩 Spaces limited – book now!

Let’s move beyond labels and into understanding. This is where compassion meets practical support.
Five specialist workshops will be held once a month, starting in September 2025. Mix and mix, or do all five.
About Us
These workshops are created and delivered by Helen and Chris Hoyte—two passionate, down-to-earth counsellors who both live with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and have spent years supporting others with it, too.
Between us, we run www.helenhoyte.co.uk and www.counsellingtorbay.co.uk, offering therapy and psychoeducation for people navigating ADHD, neurodivergence, trauma, and the challenges of modern life.
We don’t just talk theory—we live this stuff.
We understand how ADHD can show up in the therapy room, often disguised as anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, feeling ‘too much’ and believing they are ‘too sensitive’.
We also know how life-changing it can be when someone finally feels seen and understood.
This five-part training is designed by counsellors, for counsellors, bringing together lived experience of ADHD, up-to-date science, and years of hands-on therapeutic work.
Whether you’re completely new to ADHD or looking to deepen your existing knowledge, these workshops offer grounded, accessible tools and insights to support your work—and maybe yourself, too.
A Compassionate, In-Depth Training for Counsellors.
