Our ADHD treatment approach: therapy, medication, and holistic support


At Schoen Clinic Chelsea, we understand that each person’s experience with ADHD is unique. Our team of experienced ADHD specialists in London offers a range of treatment options, including therapy, medication, and holistic interventions, to ensure that your treatment is tailored specifically to you.


Therapy for ADHD


Our clinic specialises in a variety of therapeutic approaches designed to help you better manage ADHD symptoms:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Recognised as one of the most effective treatments for ADHD, CBT helps you develop practical strategies to manage impulsive behaviours, improve focus, and enhance emotional regulation.

  • Schema Therapy: A powerful method for addressing the underlying emotional triggers that can worsen ADHD symptoms, schema therapy helps you to identify and change long-standing thought patterns that may contribute to low self-esteem, anxiety, or relationship difficulties.

  • Psychotherapy: We offer individual psychotherapy sessions designed to provide emotional support, help you develop better coping mechanisms, and teach you to challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. This therapy can also address co-occurring conditions such as anxiety and depression, which often accompany ADHD.


We also offer a holistic ADHD treatment package for adults seeking practical strategies for managing their ADHD effectively.

Medication management for ADHD


Medication can be an essential component of ADHD treatment, particularly for individuals with more severe symptoms. Our experienced Consultant Psychiatrists are highly skilled in medication titration, ensuring that you receive the right dosage to effectively manage symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. We work closely with each patient to monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed.


At Schoen Clinic Chelsea, we offer:

  • Stimulant medications: commonly prescribed to reduce symptoms of ADHD.

  • Non-stimulant medications: may be recommended for individuals who experience side effects from stimulant medications or for whom stimulants are not effective.

How ADHD affects adults and children differently


ADHD can present differently in adults compared to children. Our ADHD specialists are experienced in treating both groups, tailoring treatment plans to meet the specific needs of each age group.


ADHD in adults


Adults with ADHD often face challenges in maintaining relationships, managing their workload, and dealing with time management and organisational skills. Treatment for adults focuses on building skills to manage impulsivity, improve focus, and develop better routines.


ADHD in children


Children with ADHD may struggle with hyperactivity, difficulty focusing in school, and emotional regulation. Treatment often includes a combination of behavioural therapy, family support, and, in some cases, medication to help the child manage symptoms both at home and in the classroom.

Holistic ADHD treatment options


At Schoen Clinic Chelsea, we believe that managing ADHD requires more than just therapy and medication. We offer a range of holistic interventions designed to complement your treatment plan and help you live a more balanced life:


  • Exercise programmes: Physical activity can help reduce hyperactivity and improve concentration by releasing beneficial brain chemicals like serotonin and dopamine.

  • Mindfulness and relaxation techniques: Practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and yoga have been shown to improve attention, reduce stress, and help individuals with ADHD develop better emotional regulation.

  • Nutritional guidance: A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients can play a crucial role in managing ADHD symptoms. Our team can help guide you toward a diet that supports brain health and reduces the risk of nutritional deficiencies that may exacerbate symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions about ADHD and treatment


  • Are ADHD and ADD the same?


Yes, ADHD is the medical term that encompasses both attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD), with ADD referring to the inattentive type of ADHD without hyperactivity.


  • Do women show different symptoms of ADHD?


Yes, women often display more inattentive symptoms of ADHD, which can lead to underdiagnosis. Unlike men, who may exhibit hyperactivity, women may struggle more with organisational challenges, emotional regulation, and maintaining focus.


  • Can you treat ADHD without medication?


Yes, many people benefit from therapy-based treatments such as CBT and Schema Therapy without relying on medication. These treatments focus on developing coping strategies and practical tools for managing symptoms day-to-day.


  • How is ADHD treatment different for children?


Children’s ADHD treatment often involves family therapy and school-based interventions to help them develop better focus and reduce hyperactive behaviour. Adults typically receive therapy aimed at improving work performance, relationships, and time management.
