ADHD Support Sessions

ADHD Support Sessions

Our ADHD Support Sessions are designed to help young people understand how their ADHD mind works — and to develop practical strategies that make everyday life feel more manageable.

Sessions are delivered online by James Turley (QTS), Specialist Teacher and Specialist Assessor, who has extensive experience supporting neurodivergent young people across educational, executive functioning and emotional contexts. James works within our multidisciplinary team and is guided by psychological formulation arising from assessment.

Each session lasts 50 minutes and is collaborative, structured and tailored to the individual.

ADHD coaching is not about fixing or changing a young person. It is about helping them recognise their strengths, understand their challenges, and build tools that genuinely work for their brain.

What Do ADHD Support Sessions Focus On?

While every young person presents differently, sessions are typically shaped around six key areas that commonly underpin the ADHD experience:

Attention and Focus
Understanding how attention fluctuates, managing distractibility, and working with (not against) interest-based attention.

Emotional Regulation
Recognising intensity, frustration, rejection sensitivity or overwhelm, and developing practical regulation strategies.

Executive Functioning
Supporting planning, organisation, time management, task initiation and study skills.

Impulsivity and Inhibition
Building awareness, pause strategies, and reflective thinking.

Motivation and Energy Regulation
Understanding interest-based motivation, avoiding burnout, and creating realistic routines.

Self-Concept and Confidence
Developing a compassionate and accurate understanding of self, strengths and neurodivergent identity.

How Sessions Work

Sessions are practical and interactive. Young people are encouraged to try tools and strategies during the session, reflect on what helps and what does not, and adapt approaches to suit their own thinking style.

This may include:

  • Visual supports and planning systems

  • Study and revision strategies

  • External reminders and scaffolding tools

  • Emotional regulation frameworks

  • Strategies for school, home and social situations

The approach is strengths-based and collaborative. James works alongside the young person to make sense of their experiences, normalise difficulties, and build strategies they can realistically use in daily life.

Who Are These Sessions For?

ADHD Support Sessions are particularly helpful for young people who:

  • Feel overwhelmed by school demands

  • Struggle with organisation, focus or time management

  • Experience emotional intensity or frustration

  • Have low confidence or feel misunderstood because of ADHD

  • Are aged 15+ and willing to engage in structured online sessions

The aim is to help young people feel more in control, more confident, and better understood — while equipping them with tools that fit the way their brain works.

Fees

£125 per 50-minute online session

To ensure support is psychologically informed and appropriately targeted, either our Comprehensive Pre-Screener or one of our full assessments must be completed prior to commencing sessions. This allows James to work from an established formulation and ensures continuity across our multidisciplinary team.

“Sending your child to a Psychologist can be a daunting process for both child and parents. Dr Black and her team were extremely considerate of our needs and spoke to us and our daughter in easy to understand language, putting us all at ease in a professional, considerate, sympathetic and non-judgemental way. Thank you to Tamasine and the team at Tabla Psychology for making our experience comfortable and worthwhile.”
