SUMMARY:Talk: ADHD & Women: Misunderstood\, misdiagnosed & moving forward for change
DESCRIPTION:Discover the nuances of how ADHD presents itself differently within women in a neuroaffirming environment. Followed by Q&A. \nJoin us for an insightful talk exploring how ADHD uniquely affects women – from late or missed diagnoses to the emotional toll of being misunderstood. \nDespite growing awareness\, many women are still overlooked or misdiagnosed due to outdated assumptions and gender bias. Drawing on the latest research and real-life experiences\, we’ll unpack key topics including emotional regulation\, masking\, burnout and Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria. We’ll also explore how hormonal changes can intensify ADHD symptoms – and what can be done to support wellbeing throughout these shifts. \nThis talk takes a neuro-affirming approach\, offering practical strategies and insights to empower women to better understand themselves and advocate for the support they need. \nSpeaker Bio: \nDr Emilie Moorhead (DClinPsych\, CPsychol\, BSc) is a Clinical Psychologist with nearly two decades of clinical experience working with Neurodivergent people. She is a Registered Practitioner Psychologist with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and Chartered Clinical Psychologist with the British Psychological Society (BPS). Dr Moorhead runs her own successful Psychology practice\, This Is Me Psychology\, which specialises in supporting Neurodivergent people to gain the best possible understanding of themselves. She adopts a neuro-affirming approach\, helping Neurodivergent people to recognise the strengths and values that they have to enable them to embrace their full potential. She strongly believes that everybody should be able to access Neurodivergent support in a proactive and preventative manner\, without needing to reach crisis point first.  \nDr Moorhead has also worked in a range of NHS and private mental health services\, including Clinical Lead at two specialist Neurodiversity Services. She works with individuals across the lifespan. She is a guest lecturer on a number of University courses\, specialising in Neurodivergent conditions and post-diagnostic support.

The StrayHorn band sounds settled and cohesive… Duality Pt. 1 is an accomplished and highly accessible release that effectively whets our appetite for part two.” – Jazzwise Magazine **** \n“Local sax hero Franks is a Cheltenham based musician with a national reputation and has been featured on national radio and in the national jazz press.
