Is adult ADHD treatment available in Kathmandu?

Yes. Assessment and support are available through hospitals, psychiatry, and private psychotherapy practices. Bhatta Psychotherapy offers assessment-informed adult ADHD therapy in person at Anurag Marg and secure online sessions across Nepal and the diaspora.

Can psychotherapy alone help adult ADHD?

For many adults, psychotherapy and ADHD-informed coaching significantly improve daily functioning. We are a team of psychologists — we do not provide psychiatric services or prescribe medication. If medication may help, a psychiatrist assesses and prescribes; you can find one yourself or ask us for a referral to someone in our network. Many clients work with us for therapy while seeing a psychiatrist separately when they choose both.

I'm not hyperactive — could it still be ADHD?

Yes. Inattentive presentation is common, especially in adults and women. Executive dysfunction (starting tasks, time management, emotional overwhelm) counts — you do not need to match the childhood hyperactivity stereotype.

Why do I feel lazy or ashamed instead of 'having ADHD'?

Nepali families and schools often label struggle as laziness or low motivation. Shame and depression frequently follow years of self-criticism. Therapy helps separate your worth from symptoms and build systems that work.

If I accept ADHD, will I use it as an excuse to stop working?

Understanding ADHD is not permission to give up — it is clarity. Good therapy increases accountability with realistic goals. You learn what your brain needs so effort goes where it actually works.

Do women experience ADHD differently?

Often yes. Inattentiveness, internal restlessness, emotional sensitivity, and burnout are common. Symptoms are frequently missed because they do not match male hyperactivity stereotypes. Assessment-informed care respects these patterns.

Do you offer adult ADHD therapy online outside Nepal?

Yes. Many adults attend secure video sessions from the US, UK, Australia, Europe, and across the Nepali diaspora. We confirm time zones and format at booking.

Is this the same as a medical prescription for ADHD medication?

No. We are psychologists, not psychiatrists — we do not prescribe ADHD medication. We offer psychotherapy and skills-based support. If you want to explore medication, we can point you to psychiatric care in Kathmandu or refer you to a colleague in our network if you ask.

Do I need a formal diagnosis before starting?

No. Many adults start because daily life feels unmanageable. We use an assessment-informed approach and clarify next steps together in session.
