Finding Balance with Anxiety & ADHD in the Workplace
For many working professionals, the demands of work and life feel like a constant balancing act. Long hours, tight deadlines, and the pressure to always be “on” can fuel anxiety. This can look like racing thoughts, restlessness, difficulty sleeping, or even avoiding tasks altogether.
If you’re also living with ADHD, these challenges can feel even more overwhelming. ADHD isn’t just about distraction; it often shows up as missed deadlines, disorganization, procrastination, or struggling to stay focused during meetings. For some, it looks like impulsivity or restlessness; for others, it’s the hidden exhaustion of trying to “hold it all together.”
Unfortunately, our culture often labels these struggles as laziness or lack of effort, leaving many adults with ADHD carrying a heavy sense of shame. Add anxiety on top of that, and the result can be burnout: feeling depleted, frustrated, and stuck in a cycle of stress.
At Serebro Health, we understand how anxiety and ADHD can reinforce one another, especially in high-pressure work environments. Our approach combines:
- Practical tools: Simple strategies for focus, organization, and stress relief that fit into your everyday life.
- Body-based techniques: Gentle practices, like breathing and grounding, to calm your nervous system and help you feel more present.
- Mind and thought work: Using methods like mindfulness and CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) to shift unhelpful thought patterns and reduce anxiety.
- Encouragement and support: A safe space to unpack shame, break old patterns, and build systems that actually work for you.
Whether you’re newly diagnosed with ADHD, suspect you may have it, or have simply been struggling with chronic stress and anxiety, we’re here to help you move beyond just “coping” into truly thriving.
ADHD and anxiety don’t have to define your career or your life. With the right support, you can build confidence, regain focus, and create a path forward that feels both sustainable and fulfilling.
