Individual talk therapy can help him control his anger and restore his self-esteem. Psychotherapy for adult ADHD includes counseling (psychotherapy) and teaching techniques to improve functioning. This can include cognitive behavioral therapy, coaching and coping techniques and coping methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) CBT is a type of therapy that focuses on changing the unhelpful patterns of thoughts and behaviors. It's based on the idea that your thoughts, feelings, and behavior are all connected. If you're pessimistic about a particular event it can trigger negative emotions and bad behavior. CBT helps you recognize and alter negative thoughts so that you can better manage difficult situations. In the case of ADHD, this can include retraining the brain to break situations down into trigger-thought-feeling-reaction-consequence so that you have a more rational response. This can also help with impulse control by teaching you to "put on the brakes" before making a risky decision. CBT can also aid in overcoming executive dysfunction. It teaches you how to develop more adaptive cognitive and behavioral skills to manage these difficulties like using the planner or filing system. These new adaptive cognitive skills and behaviors are a good complement to each other, and you can get better and better at managing your emotions and time. Self-regulation is a different area where CBT could be helpful. CBT for ADHD will teach you how to manage your emotions and practice mindfulness, making you less prone to mood swings or an impulsive behavior. This can be done either in group or individual sessions, and may include some exercises, such as mindful breathing, which you can practice at home. There are therapists that specialize in CBT to treat adult ADHD.
