Effective Therapies for ADHD Couples: Insights from Anita Robertson

When one partner in a relationship is diagnosed with ADHD, many couples understandably turn to therapy and medication as their first steps toward support. After all, this is a common recommendation from the mental health professional, often a psychiatrist, would shared once they share the ADHD diagnosis. But what most don’t realize is that, according to Psychology Today, there are over 80 different types of therapy available—and without a background in mental health, figuring out which one is the right fit can feel overwhelming for both partners. ADHD couples often find themselves stuck in trial-and-error, unsure if the therapy they’re pursuing is truly helping them move forward—or why progress feels so slow. Even for those already working with a therapist, it’s not uncommon to be unaware of other therapeutic options out there that could further support their needs as individuals or as a couple.

That’s exactly why I invited Anita Robertson—ADHD couples therapist, coach, and author of ADHD & Us—to share her insights. Anita works directly with both ADHD individuals and couples navigating these complex dynamics, and she offers clarity on what types of therapy are most effective for ADHD relationships. Whether you're just starting your search for a therapist or realizing it's time to pivot and try a different approach, this conversation is full of practical wisdom to help you find the right support—and start thriving.
