ADHD PsychoEd Skills Group

Build focus, organization, and confidence with our ADHD PsychoEd Skills Group. Over six weeks, you’ll learn practical tools, gain support from peers, and leave with strategies you can use right away in daily life.

ADHD PsychoEd Skills Group

Build skills, not just awareness

The ADHD Education, Skills, and Strategies Group is a structured, psychoeducational program designed for adults with ADHD or those who suspect they may have ADHD who want to build practical tools for daily life. The group emphasizes skill-building, applied activities, and peer support. While the group is not a replacement for individual therapy, many participants experience therapeutic benefits such as reduced shame, increased self-awareness, and a stronger sense of connection. 

Structure

  • Format: Check-in, psychoeducation, applied breakout activities, reflection, and wrap-up
  • Virtual format (province-wide access)
  • Six weekly sessions (approx. 1 hour 50 minutes each)
  • Closed group format (same participants throughout)

Who this group is for

  • Adults who experience ADHD symptoms (formal diagnosis not required)
  • Folks who want structure, accountability, and a supportive pace
  • People who prefer hands-on strategies vs. theory only

Facilitator(s)

What you’ll learn (high-impact skills)

  • Time & task management: plan realistically, break down tasks, combat procrastination
  • Organization systems: externalize memory, set up calendars, lists, and capture routines
  • Focus & follow-through: cueing, environmental design, and distraction management
  • Emotion regulation: fast resets, de-escalation, and “good enough” completion
  • Impulsivity tools: pause prompts, decision frameworks, and urge surfing
  • Habits that stick: tiny start rules, implementation intentions, and reward loops

What to expect each week

  1. Foundations & wins – ADHD brain basics, quick wins, and group agreements
  2. Time made visible – scheduling that actually gets used, realistic planning
  3. Do the thing – task breakdowns, anti-procrastination playbook
  4. Declutter the mind – external systems, inbox zero(ish), and capture habits
  5. Steer the nervous system – emotion regulation & impulse tools you’ll use
  6. Make it durable – habit scaffolding, relapse planning, and personal playbook

You’ll leave with printable tools and a simple, personalized “ADHD Skills Playbook.”

Results people report

  • Less overwhelm; more day to day closure
  • Fewer dropped balls; more predictable routines
  • Better emotional steadiness and self-talk
  • Systems that survive busy weeks (not just slow ones)

How it works

This is a closed, guided cohort led by a ShiftGrit therapist with a co-facilitator. Sessions are structured, practice-heavy, and supportive. You’ll try tools in session, then apply them during the week with light accountability the next time we meet.

Coverage & fees

Most extended benefit plans cover group therapy delivered by (provisional) psychologists. We can direct bill where allowed by your insurer. Full fee details and dates are shown in the panel on this page.

How to join

Spots are limited to keep the group effective. A brief screening ensures fit and safety. Ready?
