In brief. A group for adults in the first months after an ADHD diagnosis. Eight weekly 90-minute sessions by video, up to 8 people (or 10 with a support worker), led by a psychologist. A short online questionnaire first, no call needed. $399 for the program.
Who it is for
- Adults who have received an ADHD diagnosis from a psychiatrist, GP or psychologist in the last year or so
- People feeling relief, grief, confusion or all three
- Anyone wanting to meet others at the same point
You do not need to talk in the group if you would rather not. Cameras can stay off, and you can type in the chat instead. The first session starts with a short welcome, so you know how everything works before we begin. You will not be asked to speak. If you would like to, you can say or type your first name, and skipping is completely fine.
What you will cover
The group moves from understanding to action, at a pace that leaves room for whatever the diagnosis brings up.
What your diagnosis means, and what it does not
Separating ADHD from the stories you have been told about yourself.
Looking back with new eyes
Making sense of school, work and relationships in light of ADHD.
Relief, grief and identity
The mixed feelings that often follow a late diagnosis.
Telling others, or not
Deciding who to tell, how, and what to say.
Support options and questions for your clinicians
Understanding your options and preparing for appointments with your treating team.
First practical strategies
Two or three changes that make the biggest difference early on.
Strengths and interests
What ADHD brings, and building your week around it.
Your plan for the year ahead
Next steps, support and how to keep going after the group.
How it works
Short online questionnaire
About five minutes, no call needed. It helps us check the group suits you and lets you tell us what makes it easier to take part.
Small and online
Up to 8 people, or 10 with a support worker. Join from anywhere in Australia. The facilitator may be in a different state.
Our own curriculum
Every group follows the same Inner Help program and handouts, so you know what to expect each week.
Who runs it
Each group is led by a psychologist on our roster who understands neurodivergence. Some groups also have a trained support worker who helps with the video room, the chat and anyone who needs a quiet word, so the session can keep going for everyone.
Price
- Eight weekly 90-minute sessions by video
- A short online questionnaire before you start, no call needed
- Handouts after each session
- Charged once your group is confirmed
Your card is saved when you sign up and charged only once your group is confirmed. A group goes ahead once at least 5 people join. If yours does not go ahead, you can move to the next start date or get a full refund.
Ways to pay
- Privately. Most people pay for groups themselves, for the whole program, paid once the group is confirmed.
- NDIS. Self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants can use their funding where the group is an eligible therapy support for them. We confirm this with you after you complete the online questionnaire.
- Medicare. Medicare rebates for group sessions by video only apply in some regional and remote areas, so most people pay privately or use NDIS funding. We will let you know after your questionnaire if a rebate applies to you.
Not a crisis service. Groups are not a crisis service and are not monitored between sessions. If you are in immediate danger, call 000. For 24-hour support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or the Suicide Call Back Service on 1300 659 467.
Prefer one-to-one support? Get matched with a practitioner instead, or as well.
Be first to hear when a group starts
No payment now and no commitment. We email you with the start date once a facilitator is confirmed and enough people have joined.
