Late-Diagnosed ADHD Women's* Processing Group

Starting Spring 2025

ADHD in people socialized as women is often misdiagnosed or missed completely due to the fact that, until recently, many parents and educators were not aware that ADHD in those people often manifests differently than the stereotypical symptoms associated with ADHD. While being diagnosed in childhood can present its own challenges, “late” diagnosis often means having lived a lifetime without support, accommodation, or understanding for why one might be struggling with things that seem so “simple” to everyone else. Many people who received their diagnoses later in life struggle with anxiety, depression, and negative self-concepts as a result. This group is for those people! 

This group will give those who received their diagnosis in adulthood a space to process how they are learning to reconceptualize themselves, reflect on their histories, foster self-compassion, and learn tools for managing their symptoms from others who share similar experiences.

*This group is gender-affirming and inclusive! Trans and Nonbinary folx welcome!
