Hi, I’m Conor, an Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist. More importantly, I’m a person - just like you. I’ve experienced life’s joys, challenges and messiness - maybe not so different from what you’re facing now. I don’t believe in a one size fits all approach to therapy because no two people are the same, so I integrate various therapeutic approaches to tailor our sessions to what we feel is helpful for you and your unique experiences. To me, therapy can be a space for anything between serious work and humour but it isn’t rocket science – we're two people meeting, listening, and responding.

If you have reached a point in your life where you feel stuck — whether that's in your relationships, repeating anxious cycles, overwhelmed by stress, struggling to manage anger, or navigating the complexities of living with ADHD then we might be a good fit.

ADHD Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioural therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
