Earlier this month we asked our practitioner, Tom to share some resources he often recommends to clients who want to better understand their ADHD — and this was the book he suggested.

Taking Charge of Adult ADHD (2nd Edition) by Russell A. Barkley is a practical guide that helps adults understand how ADHD can show up in everyday life. It explores common challenges such as organisation, time management, motivation, and emotional regulation, while also offering realistic strategies to help manage them.

What makes this book particularly helpful is that it combines clear explanations of ADHD with practical tools that people can start applying in their daily routines. For many adults, gaining this understanding can be an important step in learning how their brain works and finding strategies that support them.

If you’re interested in learning more about ADHD, this is a great place to start.

ADHD management doesn’t have to mean “try harder.” It often means make it visible.

In this video, Tom shares simple, practical strategies for working with an ADHD brain:
▫️ Externalise everything — calendars, lists, reminders, visual cues�▫️ Break big tasks into small, doable steps�▫️ Create mini-deadlines instead of one overwhelming finish line

When it’s out of your head and in front of you, it’s easier to act on. Small steps reduce overwhelm — and momentum builds from there.

This quote is a reminder that growth isn’t comfortable. The hard days are shaping you, the tougher days are strengthening you, and the breakthrough is closer than you think. Every challenge you face is preparing you for something better.

Keep going. Even when it feels heavy. Especially when it feels heavy. Your “wonderful” is on the way.

Neurodiversity doesn’t switch off after school.

It shows up in meetings.�In conversations.�In how you rest — or struggle to.

Our Senior Psychologist, Tom Kenny unpacks how ADHD can influence work, relationships and self-care. Understanding neurodiversity means understanding strengths and challenges. Different brains bring different ways of thinking, relating and moving through the world.

This quote reminds us that mental health starts from within. When we practice self-compassion, we reduce stress, soothe our inner critic, and build resilience. Kindness toward ourselves isn’t selfish—it’s the foundation that allows us to show up more fully for others.

Start with small acts of self-care today, and watch how it ripples outward.
