Why this role exists
Diagnosis is the beginning, not the end. Women diagnosed at 40 have to reinterpret twenty years of perceived personal failure, usually while managing a household and a job. Nobody funds that work and almost everyone needs it.
Who you would be looking after
Women recently diagnosed with ADHD, many also navigating perimenopause, which sharpens symptoms considerably.
A day in the diary
- Four to eight 50 minute sessions, scheduled entirely by you
- Blocks of six or twelve sessions, so endings are planned
- Written session summaries, because ADHD memory makes them essential
- Monthly peer group with the neurodevelopmental team
What the work involves
- Deliver post-diagnostic therapy and skills work over defined blocks of sessions
- Address rejection sensitivity, burnout and self-concept alongside practical strategies
- Adapt for cyclical and perimenopausal symptom change
- Coordinate with prescribers where medication is part of the plan
What we ask for
- BACP, UKCP, BABCP or HCPC registration
- Current work with adult ADHD, ideally with women
- Understanding of the hormone and ADHD interaction
What you get
- Referrals straight from our assessment pathway
- Sessions you schedule
- Peer group monthly
What this pays, and why
Private therapy self-pay rates sit around £60 to £100 an hour in the UK, but most platform work pays therapists £35 to £50. We pay closer to the self-pay rate because we are not taking a large platform margin.
