Counselling for ADHD in Harrogate

Life with an ADHD diagnosis can at times feel overwhelming. In many ways, you feel like you’re playing a constant juggling match with yourself to overcome distractions, stay organised or feel frustrated with the knowledge that you’re working your hardest and still falling short.

Daily tasks that seem mundane to others become mountains and can set you up for procrastination, missed deadlines or incomplete tasks.

In addition to tasks taking longer to complete or feeling like a struggle to accomplish you can struggle with your time, memory and ability to concentrate through both your work and your life.

This can all combine over time to create feelings of inadequacy, anxiety and burn out.

However, it’s important to know that ADHD doesn’t mean a lack of trying and is instead a different brain organisation and attention regulation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I completed a number of in-person EMDR sessions with Louise, and I can confidently say it has genuinely changed my life. Over the years I tried different forms of treatment, but none addressed the root cause of my trauma. I often felt stuck in a cycle of depression and anxiety, but starting EMDR therapy with Louise helped me finally understand and process what had happened to me. Louise is incredibly kind, patient, professional, and highly knowledgeable in her approach. She creates a safe and supportive space, taking the time to truly get to know you while guiding you through the process with great care and valuable insight. During my time working with Louise, I began to feel more present in my life and no longer live in a constant fight or flight state. While some things can still be difficult at times, I now feel equipped with the tools needed to move forward in a healthy way. I truly believe I would not be where I am today without Louise’s guidance. Her support throughout this process has been fundamental to my recovery and I am beyond grateful to her for that!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Andrew at Clear Mind. His knowledge and expertise helped me relax and open up which is something I have never done before. Over the last few months with his help, I've managed to understand my feelings and emotions to a level which I now feel in control. I will always recommend his services to anyone and everyone who requires CBT.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After reading such positive reviews, I contacted Andrew and his team. I can't thank him enough for his empathy, time and continued advice. His expert couselling offered key CBT support and ways for me to manage moving forward. Andrew's expert counselling and talking therapies have helped in ways beyond measure. I couldn't recommend him more highly. His team offer a fantastic service, valued support and continued trust. Thank you for such a postive change, when I couldn't seem to do so myself.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m so glad that I found ClearMind as it’s been life-changing. Hannah has been so patient and understanding, supporting me to make changes that have helped me move forwards in life without doubting myself constantly. Thanks so much for everything Hannah. It really has changed my life. I know I’m still working on a lot of it but I can already see the difference in so many areas of my life. I’m not afraid of anxiety anymore and I do have to remind myself at times but you’ve taught me that I can handle it and uncertainty doesn’t mean bad. I can tolerate it so much more :) I think the part that really helped was when you gave me permission to give myself a break. I really needed that and now can do it for myself. I didn’t realise just how badly I was talking to myself and how low my self-worth actually was but I can now recognise when that creeps in and I can treat myself better. Thanks for helping me learn to trust myself more 😊 Not sure why this didn’t publish at the time but here I am over a year later and I’m still feeling so much better. I have to remind myself at times but this is much rarer and I can honestly say I’m so grateful for the therapy - lifechanging!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Without Andrew, I’m not sure I’d be here. I had been suicidal and in a pretty sorry state, but with his experience, patience and guidance, I’m still here. My wife has her husband back and my children their father. I owe that to Andrew. As a complex individual who has faced a range of childhood traumas and challenges in adult life too, I would highly recommend Andrew’s practice. His manner is mild and non-judgemental, which makes you feel relaxed, trusting and comfortable. He provides the space to examine, to challenge and to correct and re-set one’s thinking, but without boiling the ocean. One step at a time. Andrew has re-set the course of my life. I am certain he could do the same for you too. Good luck.

A friendly, professional service that helped me get my worries into perspective and develop more positive ways of looking at things. The practical tips for managing anxiety proved useful. I’m very glad I took the step towards CBT that led to me meeting Andrew.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My dr recommended Clear mind for CBT, I had no idea what to expect so attended with a sort of open mind.  Now I would recommend CBT to everyone (I frequently do) .  Andrew at Clear Mind has helped me feel better about myself and my life which manifests to a happier family too, I know I have support if I need it in future but whatever alchemy  Clear Mind has I say think you, it worked.
