Understanding the Relationship Between ADHD and Trauma: How They Impact Each Other and the Role of Therapy

As a trauma recovery therapist, I find it deeply rewarding to work with clients who are navigating the intersection of ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) and past traumatic experiences. This dynamic can be challenging, but it also reveals the strengths and resilience of individuals with ADHD. I take great satisfaction in helping clients uncover these strengths, work through the complexities of ADHD and trauma, and create lives that feel more manageable, balanced, and meaningful. In this blog, I’ll explore the relationship between ADHD and trauma, how they impact each other, and how therapy can be a powerful tool in the healing process.
