ADHD Specialised Support

ADHD Facilitated Support is a specialised program designed to help individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) manage their symptoms and improve their daily functioning. 


ADHD facilitators work with clients to develop strategies that address challenges related to attention, organisation, time management, and other areas affected by ADHD. Here are some key aspects of ADHD facilitated support:

1. Goal Setting: ADHD facilitators help clients identify personal and professional goals, breaking them down into manageable steps.

2. Time Management: Techniques for prioritizing tasks, using calendars, and setting reminders to help clients stay on track.

3. Organisation Skills: Strategies for decluttering physical spaces and managing digital information effectively.

4. Accountability: Regular check-ins to monitor progress and keep clients accountable for their goals.

5. Self-Advocacy: Empowering clients to communicate their needs and challenges in various settings, such as work or school.

6. Stress Management: Techniques to manage stress and anxiety that can accompany ADHD, such as mindfulness or relaxation exercises.

7. Building Confidence: Fostering self-esteem and self-acceptance, helping clients recognise their strengths.

8. Skill Development: Teaching specific skills that may be lacking due to ADHD, such as social skills or study techniques.

9. Support System: Helping clients identify and utilise their support systems, including family, friends, and professionals.

10. Flexibility and Adaptation: Encouraging clients to be adaptable and find creative solutions to obstacles they encounter.

Finding an ADHD facilitator can be daunting, so finding the right ADHD Specialised Support is beneficial for individuals of all ages, including children, adolescents, and adults. It is not a substitute for therapy or medical treatment but can be a valuable complement to those interventions.

Empowering Bodies & Minds program

Importance of consent, safety/sex & intimacy/pregnancy support (for Disability, Teens, LGBTQIA and other vulnerable, diverse communities) 


Empowering bodies and minds in the context of consent, safety, sexuality, intimacy, and pregnancy support is crucial, especially for individuals in diverse and vulnerable communities, including those with disabilities, teens, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. 


Here’s a detailed overview of why these topics are important and how they can be addressed effectively: 


 1. Understanding Consent: 

Definition: Consent is an agreement between participants to engage in sexual activity. It must be informed, voluntary, and reversible. 

 

Importance: Teaching consent is essential for establishing healthy boundaries and mutual respect in all relationships. It empowers individuals to communicate their needs and desires clearly.

 

Education: Providing age-appropriate and accessible education about consent can help individuals understand their rights and responsibilities, fostering a culture of respect.  


2. Safety and Intimacy:  

Physical Safety: Ensuring that individuals understand how to protect themselves from harm, both physically and emotionally, is vital. 


This includes discussions around safe sex practices and recognizing abusive behaviors. 

 - Emotional Safety: Creating an environment where individuals feel safe to express their feelings and boundaries is crucial for healthy intimacy. 


 Support Systems: Encouraging the development of supportive networks can help individuals navigate relationships and seek help when needed.


 3. Sexual Education - Tailored Approaches: 

Sexual education should be inclusive and consider the unique needs of individuals with disabilities, LGBTQIA+ youth, and other marginalised groups. This includes addressing different sexual orientations, gender identities, and varying abilities. 


Comprehensive Curriculum: A well-rounded sexual education program should cover anatomy, relationships, consent, safe sex, and emotional aspects of intimacy. 


4. Pregnancy Support - Access to Resources: 

Providing accessible information about pregnancy, contraception, and reproductive health is essential for empowering individuals to make informed choices. 


 Inclusive Care: Healthcare providers should be trained to understand the specific needs of individuals with disabilities and LGBTQIA+ individuals concerning pregnancy and reproductive health. 


Support Networks: Establishing peer support groups can offer emotional and practical assistance for those navigating pregnancy, parenting, or reproductive choices. 


5. Empowering Diverse Communities - Culturally Relevant Education: 

Education and resources should be culturally sensitive and relevant to the communities being served. This helps ensure that all individuals feel seen and understood. 


 Advocacy: Encouraging advocacy within communities can help.
