ADHD Groups
Online ADHD Support Group for Adults
Now enrolling!
This is a small online group for adults with ADHD who want to stop figuring it all out alone. We meet on Zoom once a week for six weeks. Each week we take on one of the places ADHD tends to get stuck, like motivation, avoidance, and rejection sensitivity. You'll get strategies, coaching from me, ideas from people who have been stuck in the exact same spot, and a lot of "wait, you do that too?"
The next group starts Tuesday, November 10 at 12pm Central. I'm always adding groups and I'm open to adjusting the time, so don't let a scheduling conflict stop you. Just note your timing preferences on the form.

Why join an ADHD support group?
Do you ever notice the difference when you're in a social situation with only other neurodivergent people? It's like your whole nervous system can relax, at least a little bit. The weight of masking comes off your shoulders and things start to feel lighter. Or maybe you've met someone new and clicked instantly, like your whole brain lit up talking to them, only to later learn they also have ADHD and think, "Oh, well that explains that!"
Being around people whose brains work like ours, after a lifetime of often feeling our brains are broken, can be deeply healing in any setting. My hope is that when you come to a group focused on helping each other understand, work with, and love your ADHD brain, it can also be transformational.
What happens in each ADHD group session
Our small group of 5 to 8 ADHDers meets weekly on Zoom for six weeks. Each session focuses on a common ADHD struggle area. I'll start with some education and strategies I've seen work. Then it's your turn:
Each member has the (optional!) chance to share where they're stuck and frustrated in that area. In response, you'll get tailored coaching from me, brilliant creative ideas from other members who have done battle with the same obstacle, and so much "oh my god I thought that was just me" validation.
My goal is for you to leave these sessions with new ADHD tools you don't hate, feeling deeply seen, glowing from offering ideas and support to others, more confident in your ability to reach your goals, and filled with compassion for your unique self.
What we cover
- Self-compassion and understanding your brain
- Task Initiation & Motivation
- Perfectionism & People Pleasing
- Rejection sensitivity & other interpersonal challenges
- Emotional Regulation
- Overwhelm, decision fatigue, and all kinds of executive functioning hacks
The strategies are practical. The conversation usually goes deeper. Yes we'll work on habits and strategies that get you closer to where you want to go, but we'll also work on shedding shame and just understanding yourself better.
When you're burned out on trying
Let's be honest. There are a LOT of barriers to making consistent change when you have ADHD. It's exhausting and sometimes demoralizing to keep trying. This group isn't immune to those barriers, but we will talk about them openly. I sincerely believe you'll come out the other side with more confidence and hope about your ability to take on a challenge, and a lot less shame when things don't go according to plan.

Why I run ADHD groups
I'm a therapist with ADHD who specializes in working with other ADHDers. Of all the work I do, ADHD groups are my absolute favorite service to provide. One of the things I think about most is how often my clients are going through such similar things at the same time, yet each of them feels alone and isolated in it. I keep thinking that if they could just meet, they might start to see themselves in a different light.
The people I work with are some of the most vibrant, interesting, funny, and creative humans out there. They're often blind to their own light, because sometimes they forget appointments, or spend an entire workday in task paralysis, or their brain is telling them they said an unforgivably weird thing at dinner the other night.
I get so excited about sharing strategies that make living with ADHD easier and more fun. I get even more excited about the creative ways my clients adapt those strategies and make them their own. These groups are a chance to learn from each other, rethink what you believe is "wrong" with you, and realize how not alone you actually are.
