Positive ADHD
by Deirdre Coyne
Confident ADHD Adult ADHD isn’t just about attention. It can affect how you think, feel, plan, prioritise, manage emotions and get things done — even when you know exactly what you should be doing. I’m Deirdre Coyne, an accredited CBT therapist and coach specialising in adult ADHD. In these short, practical episodes, I make sense of the ADHD brain and share evidence-based ideas from CBT, psychology and neuroscience that you can actually use in everyday life. No judgement. No quick fixes. No pretending you just need to try harder. Instead, we’ll look at why you get stuck, what’s happening underneath the behaviour, and the small changes that can help you move forward with more confidence and less self-criticism. Whether you’ve recently discovered you have ADHD, have suspected it for years, or simply want to understand yourself better, you’re in the right place. Real ADHD. Real life. Practical psychology.
