Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Murray offers evidence-based group programs for adults and young adults.
Explore current and upcoming groups below.
The goal of group therapy for ADHD is to gain a deeper understanding about ADHD, recognize that you are not alone, learn skills to set goals and complete them, deal with difficult emotions, thoughts, and reactions, and learn tools to maintain the new habits and changes you make.
Dr. Murray uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in a group therapy format. CBT is the best (most effective) psychological treatment available for managing ADHD.
The focus of the group treatment is to:
-
Learn about ADHD and how it impacts your life
-
Improve executive functioning (e.g., goal setting, prioritizing, time awareness and management, organization & planning)
-
Deal with distractions
-
Cope with strong and difficult emotions (e.g., anxiety, sadness, anger)
-
Recognize that you are not alone
Please note that a confirmed diagnosis of ADHD/ADD is required to participate in our groups. For parenting groups, this requirement applies to the child rather than the parent.
