Therapy for Attention, Focus, and Emotional Regulation Challenges

If you’re constantly distracted, overwhelmed, or beating yourself up for not being “productive enough,” you’re not alone, and you’re not lazy. You may be living with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), whether formally diagnosed or still figuring it out.

At Four Wings Psychology, we offer ADHD-informed therapy in Nepean and online across Ontario. We help tweens, teens, and adults better understand how their brains work and how to work with those brains, not against them.

What Is ADHD?

ADHD affects more than just attention. It can impact how you plan, manage time, regulate emotions, and handle everyday tasks. It often shows up differently depending on age, gender, or environment, and many people go undiagnosed well into adulthood.

Signs of ADHD can include:

  • Trouble focusing or staying organized
  • Forgetfulness, procrastination, or time blindness
  • Impulsivity or difficulty managing emotions
  • Difficulty completing tasks or following through
  • Feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks and responsibilities
  • Sensory sensitivity or frequent restlessness
  • Persistent self-criticism or shame

ADHD isn’t a failure of willpower: it’s a difference in how the brain processes information, responds to stimulation, and regulates behavior.

How Therapy Helps with ADHD

At Four Wings Psychology, our therapists provide compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming support for people with ADHD and ADHD traits. We tailor therapy to fit your goals, challenges, and strengths.

Therapy can help you:

  • Understand your emotional patterns and regulate strong feelings
  • Shift out of shame-based thinking and build self-compassion
  • Navigate relationships, work, school, or parenting with more clarity
