Finding Your People: A Supportive Space for ADHD Moms
For kids who are learning to navigate friendships.
If you’re an ADHD mom- whether you’ve had the diagnosis for years or just recently discovered it- you’re not alone. This group was created for moms just like you: Moms who are managing the unique challenges that come with ADHD while also juggling the demands of motherhood. No diagnosis is required- as long as you are noticing ADHD tendencies, this space is for you!
Many of us are also raising ADHD kids so that adds to our journey. Naturally these conversations will overlap into our space- what works, what doesn’t and how our own experiences have shaped who we are today. But, this group is more than just that. It is a supportive space to talk about all things ADHD and how it impacts you. Whether that is executive functioning, anxiety, or depression, this place is for you. We will navigate the ADHD journey together, sharing stories, tips and challenges under the guidance of a therapist to foster a supportive environment that focuses on validation, advice and providing a safe space.
