Navigating ADHD in a Distractible World: A Comprehensive Approach at Kellyville Private Hospital
In an era where distractions abound, the rise in the need for ADHD assessments is palpable. The symptoms of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are not just prevalent but also multifaceted, often coexisting with mood-related challenges such as depression and anxiety. At Kellyville Private Hospital, we understand that these symptoms can significantly disrupt both personal and professional lives.
ADHD in the Community
ADHD is a prevalent mental health condition that presents challenges in daily life for both children and adults. ADHD is characterised by a range of symptoms, including a lack of focus, disorganisation, impulsivity, and restlessness. These symptoms can be not only debilitating but also complex, as ADHD often coexists with other mental health issues.
The condition can affect all aspects of life, leading to difficulties in academic, social, and occupational settings.
Kellyville Private’s Approach to Treating ADHD
Recognising that a diagnosis of ADHD can sometimes be an oversimplification, Kellyville Private Hospital advocates for a holistic assessment.
Dr Tanveer Ahmed, a leading psychiatrist at our facility, emphasises the importance of a comprehensive approach:
“A multi-disciplinary team conducting a thorough assessment and providing treatment through both inpatient and outpatient programmes offers the best possible chance at meaningful improvement.”
Our dedicated team of doctors and allied health professionals is committed to delivering exceptional care in a serene environment designed to promote healing and well-being.
We offer a range of treatment options tailored to individual needs. In addition to psychotherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy, lifestyle adjustments, including dietary changes, are integral parts of our treatment plans.
We are dedicated to offering a swift and thorough assessment and diagnosis process, followed by a secure group therapy programme.
Inpatient ADHD Program
About the Program
Our comprehensive ‘Managing Adult ADHD’ inpatient programme targets mood disorders that co-occur with ADHD, aiming to empower participants with a deeper understanding of their condition. The programme is steadfastly committed to offering patients a swift and thorough assessment, followed by a precise diagnosis. It ensures a secure and private group therapy environment, where participants receive robust, evidence-based psycho-education coupled with essential skills for managing mental health. This initiative is designed to empower patients with the knowledge and tools necessary for navigating their mental health journey with confidence and autonomy.
Program Purpose
The paramount objective of this initiative is to ensure that every individual with ADHD has the opportunity to explore and benefit from a diverse spectrum of therapeutic approaches and support systems. This is to ensure that each person can find and utilise the intervention methods and skills that resonate most profoundly with their unique needs and personal experiences, fostering a tailored path to wellness and self-mastery.
Patient Outcomes
In this program, our patients will gain a deeper insight into ADHD and the cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) model. They will be guided to identify and label overwhelming thoughts in a way that lessens their impact. The program offers a nurturing environment to understand the roots of negative thoughts, increasing self-awareness and reducing their influence on emotions and behaviours.
Our patients will learn about the effects of ADHD on their emotional well-being and will be equipped with strategies to manage distressing emotions. The program emphasises the importance of recognising one’s strengths, thereby enhancing self-esteem. It also provides practical time management strategies to help individuals make the most of their time. As a result, participants will experience an improvement in their overall well-being and daily functioning, leading to a more peaceful and fulfilling life.
