💙 Emotions, Intimacy and ADHD: A Conversation We Need to Have 💙

The emotional and sexual life of neuroatypical individuals is still treated like a taboo. Yet the cognitive, sensory, and social traits linked to ADHD shape how someone loves, connects, and builds relationships — every single day.

People with ADHD often bring intensity, passion, spontaneity, and deep emotional presence into their relationships. But they may also face challenges that are rarely talked about:

• Impulsivity that feels exciting at first but becomes hard to regulate
• Difficulty sustaining interest and attention over time
• Disorganisation, forgetfulness, and procrastination that create tension
• Words or actions expressed without filter that unintentionally hurt
• Sensory overwhelm that affects emotional and sexual closeness

None of this means someone is “too much” or “not enough.”
It simply means they need a different roadmap.

As a psychologist, my role is to support neuroatypical individuals in discovering their own way of loving and being loved — one that honours their mind, their sensory world, and their emotional needs.

The goal isn’t to squeeze anyone into rigid societal expectations.
It’s to help them build an emotional and sexual life that feels authentic, fulfilling, and safe — a space where connection becomes a source of well-being, confidence, and personal growth.

Because everyone deserves a relationship that matches who they truly are.

Love,

ADHD is so much more than distraction or restlessness.

It’s living with a constant mental noise that others can’t see.
It’s the highs of creativity, passion, and energy —
followed by the lows of self-doubt, overwhelm, and exhaustion.

Many individuals with ADHD describe a lifelong pattern of:
✨ Feeling “too much” or “not enough.”
✨ Struggling with shame after missed deadlines or emotional outbursts.
✨ Overthinking every small mistake.
✨ Battling perfectionism to hide the chaos inside.

These aren’t character flaws — they’re emotional echoes of a nervous system that never quite rests.
When ADHD goes unrecognised or unsupported, it can lead to anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, and emotional dysregulation.
But with understanding, strategies, and self-compassion, emotional balance can be restored.

When it comes to ADHD or other neurodiverse conditions — such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Dyslexia, or Dyspraxia — it’s important to remember that the implementation of pedagogical accommodations and compensatory strategies requires a genuine shift in perspective and attitude from educators, families, and society as a whole.

It means moving from a uniform approach to a differentiated one — accepting that not all students learn in the same way or at the same pace.
It means valuing progress over performance, skills over errors, and cooperation over competition.

As Charles Gardou reminds us:

“It’s not enough to welcome diversity — it must be accompanied.”

This is the very essence and richness of inclusive education, which strives to ensure that all students can succeed, regardless of their differences and specific needs.

💬 When we understand and accompany diversity with empathy and flexibility, we create spaces where everyone — regardless of their wiring — can thrive.

Albert Einstein. Isaac Newton. Mozart.

All believed to have shown traits of what we now call high-functioning autism — a reminder that extraordinary minds can sometimes experience the world differently.

High-functioning autism often goes unnoticed during childhood.
Early language and cognitive strengths can mask underlying social and emotional challenges, leading others to assume that “everything is fine.”

As a result, diagnosis is frequently delayed — sometimes not until adolescence or even adulthood.
By then, many have endured years of confusion, exhaustion, and the painful feeling of being misunderstood or out of step with others.

Over time, this internal struggle can give rise to anxiety, depression, or burnout — not because of autism itself, but because of living in a world that doesn’t always understand it.

Recognising high-functioning autism isn’t about labelling — it’s about understanding, validation, and self-compassion.
Awareness helps us move from judgement to empathy, from misunderstanding to connection.

Let’s remember: not all brilliance shines in the same way.

Love,

Szeri

Why do I Offer a Free 15-Minute Introductory Call?

Starting therapy is a big step — and it’s completely natural to want to get a sense of who you’ll be working with before committing.

That’s why I offer a free 15-minute introductory call — not as a formality, but as an important first step in building the foundation for meaningful therapeutic work.

This short conversation gives you the chance to:

* Get a feel for the way I work and what therapy with me might look like
* See if my style and energy feel like the right fit for you
* Ask questions and share what’s bringing you to therapy
* Experience what it’s like to feel heard, respected, and safe

Because therapy isn’t just about techniques or approaches — it’s about connection, trust, and feeling comfortable enough to be open and vulnerable.

For me, this call is also a way to meet you where you are — without expectations, labels, or pressure — and to hold a safe, flexible space that supports your pace and needs.

If you’re curious, or simply wondering whether therapy might help, this first chat is a gentle place to start.

Love,

Szeri 💙

Hello everyone,

Allow me to re-introduce myself :)

I’m Dr Szerenke Kovacs (Szeri) — a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner, and ADHD Assessment Specialist.

Over the past years, I’ve had the privilege of helping hundreds of individuals reclaim their confidence, heal from trauma, and better understand their minds. My work combines evidence-based approaches like CBT, EMDR, ACT, and Mindfulness, always tailored to the unique person sitting (or logging) in front of me. I also offer resilience building and stress management workshops, which I greatly enjoy.

My passion lies in:

✨ Supporting those recovering from trauma to feel safe, grounded, and empowered again
💡 Providing comprehensive ADHD assessments that bring clarity and direction
🌱 Helping people embrace who they truly are, rather than who they’ve been told to be

Becoming an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner this year in July has been a meaningful milestone — a reflection of years of dedication to trauma recovery and continuous learning.

My mission remains the same:

To empower people to unlock their full potential, cultivate self-awareness, and build resilience — so they can thrive, embrace their strengths, and live authentically.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey so far - those who mean a lot to me-
whether colleagues, clients, friends or family members... Here’s to continuing the work of healing, growth, and self-discovery together. 💫

✨ Client Feedback Highlight ✨

"I appreciated that it wasn’t a tick-box exercise. You went into real depth, took time to understand me, and reflected back my thoughts accurately. The level of detail gave me confidence that I was in very good hands."

⭐ 10/10 – Highly Recommended ADHD Assessment Experience ⭐

It means so much to receive feedback like this.
Every assessment I conduct is more than a process — it’s a collaboration, built on empathy, depth, and understanding.

Thank you to all my wonderful clients who place their trust in me — you are the reason I do what I do. 💛
