Supporting ADHD Students at University

Supporting ADHD Students at University

This week, Sam and Katie dive into one of the biggest transitions for ADHDers- leaving home and starting university. Why does it feel like falling off a cliff? And how can parents, students and universities work together to make sure ADHD minds don’t just survive, but actually thrive?

They’re joined by ADHD advocate and coach Stephanie Camilleri from Empower ADHD, who specialises in supporting students as they navigate the chaos of deadlines, laundry, lectures and life away from home. Together they unpack why executive function suddenly feels like an impossible mountain, how rejection sensitivity can fuel risky choices, and why interdependence- not independence- is the key to success.

From the stress of dissertations to the reality of burnout, from scaffolding support before Freshers’ Week to finding the right kind of coaching, this is a frank, reassuring and practical conversation for students and parents alike.
