ADHD individuals are often masters of masking — appearing capable and composed while quietly carrying an enormous cognitive load. The overwork, the shame, the exhaustion of keeping up: none of this is inevitable.
Our programme is built on three interconnected pillars, each grounded in the latest neuroscience. Together, they address the full picture — not just the symptoms.
| Aspect | Traditional Approach | The Lyceum Way |
|---|---|---|
| Approach | Medication-first | Non-medication, science-led |
| Assessment | Symptom checklist | Comprehensive neuro-profile |
| Biology | Rarely addressed | Central to the programme |
| Goals | Manage symptoms | Thrive — not just cope |
| Duration | Ongoing, open-ended | Structured programme with clear milestones |
| Masking | Not addressed | Core focus — break the cycle |
Our programme is built on peer-reviewed research in neuroplasticity, ADHD neuroscience, and non-pharmacological interventions. We stay at the forefront of our field so you benefit from the best available evidence.
The brain can change. Our protocol is designed to leverage this — building new neural pathways through targeted, consistent practice.
Research consistently shows that sleep dysregulation is both a symptom and a driver of ADHD. Our biological baseline addresses this directly.
Aerobic exercise has been shown to increase dopamine and norepinephrine — the same neurotransmitters targeted by ADHD medication.
"I spent 30 years thinking I was lazy. The Strategic Mapping phase alone changed how I see myself. The rest of the programme gave me the tools to actually change my life."
"I was sceptical about a non-medication approach. But the biological baseline work — especially the sleep protocol — made more difference than anything I'd tried before."
"The Performance Protocol helped me finish my degree after two failed attempts. I finally understand how my brain works — and how to work with it."
