ADHD-Informed Counselling for Anxiety & Self-Esteem – Edinburgh & online
- Feeling overwhelmed or exhausted by everyday responsibilities
- Feeling stuck in procrastination
- Never quite feeling like you’re enough
My name is Kerry Rae
I offer in-person counselling in central Edinburgh as well as online counselling.
If you’ve spent years feeling like you’re never quite enough, you’re in the right place.
ADHD can make everyday life feel harder than it should. It can make it difficult to switch off, leaving you tired from overthinking, anxiety or avoidance. Maybe you can relate to:
- Not trusting yourself
- Feeling like you’re letting people down
- A self-critical inner voice
- Struggling to stay on top of things
- Difficulty taking time away or resting
- Irritability or feeling easily overwhelmed
As an ADHD informed counsellor, I work with many people who have an ADHD diagnosis or who identify with ADHD. I understand the deep emotional impact that can have, particularly rejection sensitivity and how it shapes the way we talk to ourselves and our belief in how others see us.
- They want to better understand how their brain works.
- They’re overwhelmed or exhausted by work, family or daily responsibilities.
- They want to be less hard on themselves when things don’t go to plan.
How do Counselling sessions work?
I know from personal experience and through my training that the relationship between counsellor and client is at the heart of the work that we do.
Counselling offers a calm, supportive space to explore what’s been getting in the way and is increasingly heavy to hold, both emotionally and in your everyday life.
Together, we can work on things like:
- Managing stress and anxiety
- Being less hard on yourself
- Setting boundaries
- Improving focus, motivation or follow-through
- Feeling more confident in yourself
Why choose to work with me?
I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for support, especially if you’ve always been the one holding space for everyone else.
Perhaps you’re exhausted, running on coffee, constantly beating yourself up trying to push through — all while wondering how everyone else manages just fine.
If any of that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. That voice that pushes you doesn’t have to feel like a bully you’re living with forever.
