Understanding ADHD.

ADHD doesn’t look the same for every child. Some can’t sit still, others drift off mid-task, and many ride waves of big emotions. It’s not laziness. It’s not a lack of effort. It’s simply how their brain works.

Once parents see that, frustration turns into understanding. ADHD isn’t a flaw. It’s a difference in how the brain develops. And with the right support, kids can learn skills that help them succeed and feel proud of who they are.

Our Approach To Supporting Kids & Teens With ADHD.

At Unbound Minds, we use proven therapies and simple, practical tools that actually fit into everyday life.

Here’s how we help:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Gives kids ways to manage impulses, handle emotions and think more flexibly.
  • Executive Function Coaching: Teaches planning, organisation and task completion in a way that sticks.
  • Parent & Family Coaching: Equips families with easy strategies to bring structure and calm to daily routines.
  • Behavioural Supports & Social Skills Training: Builds stronger interactions, better focus and real friendships.
  • Strengths-Based Identity Work: Helps kids see their ADHD as part of their story - and something that makes them unique.

We don’t work in a bubble. We team up with families, schools and communities so progress in therapy shows up in real life.

Helpful Answers For Parents.

Parenting a child with ADHD often means riding a wave of boundless energy, creativity, and curiosity, while also navigating challenges with focus, emotions, and routine. At Unbound Minds, we help families channel that energy in positive ways. These FAQs highlight how we support children with ADHD and answer the questions parents most often ask us.

How does Unbound Minds support children with ADHD differently?

We focus on strengths first. Many children with ADHD are imaginative, energetic, and resourceful. By building on these qualities, we can teach skills in attention, organisation, and regulation in ways that feel natural and encouraging. Sessions are practical, playful, and always tailored to your child.

Do you work with parents as well as children?

Yes. ADHD doesn’t just affect the child, it impacts the whole family. We work closely with parents to create strategies that make home life calmer and more predictable, from morning routines to managing homework. You’ll feel supported, not blamed.

How do I know if my child’s behaviour is ADHD or just being energetic?

Lots of kids are busy and full of energy. With ADHD, the difference is the persistence and impact on daily life, like difficulty focusing at school, big emotional reactions, or struggling to follow instructions. At Unbound Minds, we help parents understand patterns of behaviour and respond in ways that support learning and wellbeing.

My child struggles to sit still. How can I help them succeed at school?

Movement breaks, fidget tools, and alternative seating can help kids channel their energy without disrupting learning. We work with families and teachers to set up strategies that make classrooms more ADHD-friendly while keeping your child engaged and included.

What strengths should I nurture in my child with ADHD?

Children with ADHD are often creative thinkers, natural problem solvers, and full of enthusiasm. We encourage parents to notice and nurture these qualities, turning what can sometimes feel like challenges into opportunities for growth and resilience.
