What are the symptoms of ADHD?

Common symptoms include inattention, difficulty organising tasks, forgetfulness, restlessness and impulsivity — though how these show up varies significantly between children and adults, and not everyone with ADHD is visibly hyperactive.

How is ADHD diagnosed?

Diagnosis involves a structured clinical assessment covering developmental history and current symptoms across different areas of life, rather than a single questionnaire. For children this often includes parent and teacher input; for adults, we look at symptom history going back to childhood.

Can adults be diagnosed with ADHD for the first time?

Yes — many adults were never assessed as children, especially if they weren't overtly hyperactive. A first-time adult diagnosis is common and can bring real clarity to lifelong patterns that were previously misread as personal failings.

Do you prescribe ADHD medication?

As psychologists, we focus on assessment and behavioural/therapeutic treatment. Where medication may help, we coordinate with a psychiatrist so that medication and therapy work together rather than as separate tracks.

How is ADHD managed in adults?

Through a combination of CBT-based coaching, practical organisational strategies tailored to your actual routine, and, where appropriate, coordinated medication management with a psychiatrist.

How do I know if therapy is right for me?

Therapy can help if you're noticing persistent stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship conflict, grief, or emotional patterns that are getting in the way of daily life, work or relationships — you don't need to be in a crisis to benefit. A first session with one of our psychologists is simply a conversation to understand what you're dealing with, with no obligation to continue if it doesn't feel like the right fit.

How much does a session cost?

Session fees range from PKR 5,000 to PKR 15,000, depending on the therapist's experience and the type of appointment — individual, couples, or child therapy. Students receive a 20% discount with every therapist on our team, and fees are the same whether you attend in person at our Islamabad clinic or online.

Do you offer online sessions?

Yes — all of our therapists offer confidential online sessions by secure video call, in addition to in-person appointments at our F-11/1 Islamabad clinic. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person therapy for most concerns, and are used by clients across Pakistan as well as the UK, USA, Canada, UAE and elsewhere.

What happens in the first session?

Your first session is a conversation, not an assessment or diagnosis. Your therapist asks about what's brought you in, your history, and what you're hoping to get out of therapy, then talks through a realistic plan, including how often to meet and what approach might help. Sessions typically run 45-50 minutes, with no pressure to commit beyond that first conversation.

Are sessions confidential?

Yes. Everything you share in session is strictly confidential between you and your therapist, protected by professional ethical standards. The only exceptions, required by law, involve situations with a risk of serious harm to yourself or others — your therapist will always explain this clearly before you begin.

Can I choose a therapist?

Yes — you can browse our full team page and choose a specific therapist based on their specialisation, language or approach when booking. If you're not sure who's the right fit, you can also request guidance in the booking form or over WhatsApp, and our team will match you based on what you're dealing with.

Which languages are available?

Our therapists offer sessions in English, Urdu, Hindi and Punjabi, so you can talk about what you're going through in whichever language feels most natural, without needing to translate your thoughts into a second language first.

Do you work with children and families?

Yes — we have therapists dedicated specifically to child psychology, teen counselling, family therapy and parent guidance. Sessions for children and teenagers are adapted to their age and developmental stage, and parents are involved in a way that respects the child's privacy.

How long does therapy usually take?

This varies by person and what you're working on — some clients see meaningful change within a few sessions, while others benefit from ongoing support over several months. Your therapist discusses a realistic timeline with you after understanding your situation, and you're always free to stop or adjust the pace.

Do I need a doctor's referral to book a session?

No referral is needed — you can book directly with any of our psychologists or therapists through our website, WhatsApp, or by phone, and typically receive a confirmation within 30 minutes.
