READ THIS BOOK!

Awareness around ADHD and neurodiversity is growing rapidly, with diagnoses increasing and many more recognising symptoms without formal diagnosis. But when it comes to sleep, it is common to spread the same advice – go to bed earlier, wind down, cut screen time – without considering the uniqueness of the individual.

In The ADHD Sleep Book, accredited therapist and sleep specialist, Heather Darwall-Smith will guide you through sleep advice tailored for your unique brain. Through relatable scenarios and practical interventions, this book help you understand how:
  • Sleep deprivation hits people with ADHD so hard
  • Traditional sleep advice fails and what to do about it
Timely and compassionate, The ADHD Sleep Book is an inviting guide and a distinct pathway toward restful nights.

About Heather Darwall-Smith

Heather Darwall-Smith is a UKCP accredited psychotherapist and sleep specialist who works with individuals with ADHD and sleep disorders, bridging the gap between mental health and sleep medicine. Heather was diagnosed late in life with ADHD herself – which meant she could join up the dots that others hadn’t. Determined to understand why sleep is so uniquely difficult for neurodiverse minds, she’s spent years combining scientific research with therapeutic insight. She knows first-hand what it’s like to live with a disco ball of a brain that refuses to switch off, especially at night. This blend of professional expertise and personal experience allows her to speak with both authority and deep empathy.
