At Divergent North, we offer individualized therapy services tailored to the unique needs of ADHDers and other neurodivergent individuals. Whether you’re a parent, youth, or adult, our goal is to help you navigate life’s challenges by embracing your neurodivergence and harnessing your strengths.
ADHD Counselling and Advocacy
What We Help With
Life with ADHD or other forms of neurodivergence can feel like an endless balancing act. We provide supportive counselling for those who struggle with:
Procrastination and distractibility
Rejection sensitivity
Overwhelm, stress, and anxiety
Disorganization
Impulsivity and self-sabotage
Motivation and hygiene challenges
Difficulty maintaining household routines
Perfectionism, over-functioning, and low self-esteem
We help you embrace your strengths—like your energy, creativity, intuition, passion, resilience, empathy, big-picture thinking, entrepreneurial spirit, and hyperfocus. We also provide education and advocacy for schools, workplaces, and families.
Our Approach
At Divergent North, we focus on creating processes that work with your unique brain, not against it. Through ADHD education, knowledge-building, and strength-based therapies, we help you reduce unwanted behaviors, break down barriers to well-being, and celebrate your successes along the way. We also assess and support co-occurring mental health concerns.
Regulating the Nervous System
Life can be overwhelming, and for many neurodivergent folks, nervous system regulation is key to managing stress. We offer therapies like the Safe and Sound Protocol and sensory modulation to help you feel more grounded and in control.
What Does Neurodiversity-Affirming Mean?
To be neurodiversity-affirming means shifting the way we view mental health. We honour and validate the uniqueness of each individual, rejecting the idea that neurodivergent traits need to be "fixed" or "treated." Instead, we work with you to embrace your differences, and help you define and achieve your own version of wellness and success.
