Guided discussion

The rest of the session is an open, facilitated conversation about the topic, questions and experiences that come up in the group.

Participate your way

Share if you’d like, ask questions, or simply listen. There's no pressure to speak or disclose anything you'd prefer to keep private.

A different conversation each month

ADHD can affect many different areas of adult life.

Each month, the group focuses on one specific topic related to the experience of living with ADHD.

Frequently asked Questions

Who can attend?

The group is for adults aged 18 and over with ADHD who would like to take part in a facilitated conversation about the month’s topic.

Do I need a formal ADHD diagnosis?

You do not need to have been assessed or diagnosed by Spectrum Centre to attend. If you have not received a formal ADHD diagnosis, the group cannot be used to assess or confirm whether you have ADHD.

Do I need to attend every month?

No. Each month focuses on a different topic, so you can book the individual sessions that are relevant to you.

Do I have to speak during the group?

No. You are welcome to contribute, ask questions or simply listen. There is no pressure to speak or share personal information you would prefer to keep private.

Is this group therapy?

No. This is a psychologist-facilitated support group that includes psychoeducation and group discussion. It is not individual or group psychotherapy, an ADHD assessment, diagnosis or crisis service.

How does the online group work?

The group takes place online. Your joining information and instructions will be sent to you after booking.

How long is the session?

Each session is approximately 60 minutes. The group begins with a short introduction to the month’s topic, followed by facilitated discussion and support.

How much does it cost?

Each monthly session costs R320 per person. You only pay for the individual session you choose to attend.

Can I attend from outside South Africa?

Yes, as this is an online psychoeducational support group rather than a clinical assessment or therapy service. Please note that the session time is shown in South African time (CAT).

What if I need individual support?

The support group is not a substitute for individual psychological care. If you are looking for an ADHD assessment or individual therapy, you can book a separate appointment with Spectrum Centre.
