Our treatment

Cognitive behavioral therapy

CBT focuses on addressing behavioral patterns and practical skills, with an emphasis on the
core symptoms of ADHD. The goals are tailored to you based on your individual needs and the help you’re seeking.
Medication is effective in reducing concentration problems, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. However, your old behavioral patterns are persistent, and learning new behaviors doesn’t happen overnight.
In addition to medication and psychoeducation, you have the option of undergoing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). If you’re referred for CBT, the treatment plan will focus specifically on your cognitions and/or skills. During CBT, you’ll learn effective and practical skills and strategies for managing ADHD.
To get the most out of the therapy, it’s important to practice at home as well. The program is supported by eHealth modules. You can also access a wide range of eHealth modules focused on specific topics such as social skills, worrying, mindfulness, substance use, healthy living, and recovery. CBT is offered both individually and in group settings.

Sleep problems

ADHD is often accompanied by sleep problems. Sleep problems may be lessened by treatment for ADHD symptoms. If not, you may take “sleep therapy” as part of your treatment.

Sleep Therapy

Scientific research shows that sleep therapy is the most effective and safe treatment for many sleep disorders, such as insomnia (long-term insomnia) and delayed sleep phase disorder, for example. We officially call this Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i) or “sleep therapy.”
Sleep therapy not only improves the quality of sleep, but also affects overall well-being and daily functioning.
Sleep therapy is an online group treatment consisting of 6 sessions. These sessions consist of: psychoeducation about sleep and the biological clock and treatment methods (including stimulus control, sleep restriction, challenging irrational thoughts about sleep). Registration of sleep is an important part of therapy. The advantage of a group is that you can find recognition and support in the process with group peers. It is a short and intensive treatment that requires dedication and motivation on the part of the participant but, as a result, it can be very rewarding and we have had good experiences with it.

I finally understand how my sleep works! I am not there yet, but I am now more confident in my sleep for the future.
