E84: The Reckoning: Making sense of a late in life diagnosis of ADHD

The Christina Crowe Podcast: Making the invisible VISIBLE

I’m your host, psychotherapist Christina Crowe, and I love making invisible things visible. Today I’m doing a solo, talking here on the podcast something I don't think I’ve ever dedicated an episode to, (despite talking about it ALL THE TIME), which is on the therapeutic tasks of ‘The Reckoning’, following a late-in-life diagnosis of ADHD.

I cover today:

The length of the reckoning, and its 3 distinct phases,

What the opportunities in a late-diagnosis of ADHD might be for you,

Questions to ask yourself if you have late-diagnosed ADHD, and

Where to find more resources.
