Why Your Mind Reacts Before You Can Think — and How We Rewire That
You have two minds that shape every moment: the one that thinks and the one that reacts. When something triggers old fear or shame, your reactive mind jumps in first — just like how you’d flinch at a spider before realizing it’s harmless. The ShiftGrit approach helps you retrain that automatic system so your reactions finally line up with what you know to be true — calm, confident, and in control.

- Structured support designed for ADHD brains

Identity-Level Therapy for ADHD in Edmonton
Identity-Level Therapy targets the belief patterns and emotional loops driving automatic reactions—not just the surface symptoms. By working at the identity layer, clients shift how they interpret safety, regulate threat, and relate to themselves and others. The result: reconditioning at the root of shame, self-sabotage, reactivity, and overwhelm.
It’s organized around three pillars:

What does ADHD look like in everyday life?
ADHD often appears as patterns of distraction, impulsivity, and difficulty staying organized — but it can also show up as perfectionism, burnout, or chronic overthinking. Many people describe feeling “always on” but rarely productive. In therapy, we help you understand why your mind works the way it does, and how to retrain your reactions so you can focus, follow through, and feel calmer day-to-day.
How does ShiftGrit’s approach help with ADHD?
Our therapists use a structured model called Pattern Theory™ to map the beliefs and habits that keep you stuck in ADHD-related loops. Then, through Reconditioning — a counter-conditioning technique — we help your brain respond differently to stress and distraction triggers. It’s not about masking symptoms; it’s about retraining your automatic responses so you can stay focused and confident in real-world situations.
Can adults benefit from ADHD therapy too?
Absolutely. Many adults with ADHD don’t realize how deeply it influences their motivation, self-esteem, and relationships. Therapy can help you recognize old coping patterns that no longer serve you and replace them with strategies that feel natural and sustainable. The result? Less chaos, more clarity, and a renewed sense of control — without needing to rely solely on willpower.
What happens in the first ADHD therapy session?
Your first session is an enriched intake where your therapist acts as a detective — learning how you function, what shaped your patterns, and what’s working or not working for you right now. You’ll explore daily habits, early experiences, and current challenges. By the end, your therapist will outline a personalized plan for your program, so you’ll know exactly what to expect — no guesswork or “just talking.”
Do you offer in-person and virtual ADHD sessions in Edmonton?
Yes. Our clinicians offer in-person ADHD sessions in Edmonton and secure virtual sessions across Edmonton. You can choose the format that fits best — start virtually, switch to in-person, or stay online long-term. Both options follow the same structured, transparent model that keeps therapy focused and effective.
