Join us at WHWS for a six-week group therapy program designed for women. This supportive and empowering group experience is tailored to help you navigate life’s challenges with more resilience and self-awareness. Whether you’re dealing with stress, life transitions, or emotional upheaval, you can count on a supportive environment to explore and grow.
Weekly Themes: Each week, we focus on various aspects of emotional health, from understanding your emotions and managing stress to building self-esteem and improving interpersonal relationships.
Week 1: Understanding ADHD in Women
Focus: Know your ADHD, especially how symptoms present uniquely. Discuss common misconceptions, the problem of late/misdiagnosis, and the impact of hormonal changes on ADHD symptoms.
Week 2: Self-Awareness and Self-Compassion
Focus: Explore the emotional and psychological impacts of living with ADHD. Exercises in self-compassion to help manage feelings of frustration, guilt, or inadequacy that usually accompany ADHD.
Week 3: Organisation and Finding Time
Focus: Address practical challenges like organisation and time management. Introduce tools and strategies specifically tailored for ADHD, such as time-blocking, prioritisation techniques, and clutter control.
Week 4: Strengthening your Strengths
Focus and Reducing Distractions Focus: Techniques may include mindfulness practices, making your environment more friendly, and implementing workarounds.
Week 5: Building Resilient Relationships
Focus: Examine the impact and offer strategies for communication that foster understanding and patience. Role-play scenarios to practice new skills in real-time.
Week 6: Embracing Change and Planning for the Future
