Presentation

Beyond the Symptom: The CHaNT™ Approach to Anxiety, ADHD, Overthinking & Emotional Dysregulation

Why do so many adults with ADHD know exactly what they need to do… yet still struggle to follow through consistently?

Why do motivation, focus, emotional regulation, and procrastination continue to create chaos even when someone is intelligent, capable, and highly self-aware?

In this practical and thought-provoking presentation, Ivan Rose offers a refreshing and deeply compassionate perspective on adult ADHD — one that moves beyond outdated assumptions about laziness, lack of discipline, or simple “attention problems.”

Instead, Ivan reframes ADHD as what it often truly is:

A challenge of regulation.

Designed for hypnotists, coaches, therapists, and practitioners working with adults experiencing ADHD-related patterns — diagnosed or not — this session explores how nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and cognitive overwhelm directly impact behavior, consistency, and long-term change.

This is especially valuable for clients who:

  • Are resistant to medication
  • Still struggle despite medication
  • Feel frustrated by repeated cycles of procrastination and self-criticism
  • Understand what to do intellectually but cannot consistently implement it

Ivan introduces a neuro-informed framework that combines:

  • Hypnosis
  • Neuroscience
  • Emotional regulation tools
  • Cognitive reframing
  • Practical behavior strategies

…into an approach practitioners can immediately apply ethically and effectively in real-world sessions.

One of the Core Insights of This Session:

Insight alone does not create change for ADHD.
Emotional regulation is the missing link.

Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of why many traditional approaches fail when they focus only on productivity, discipline, or mindset without addressing nervous system regulation underneath the behavior.

In This Session You’ll Discover:

✔ A modern, regulation-based understanding of adult ADHD
✔ Why emotional dysregulation often drives procrastination and inconsistency
✔ Practical tools to help clients improve focus and follow-through
✔ Neuro-informed strategies practitioners can use immediately
✔ How hypnosis can support regulation, self-awareness, and sustainable change
✔ Ethical ways to work with ADHD patterns without shame or pathologizing

Ivan’s grounded and accessible teaching style makes complex neuroscience easy to understand and immediately applicable for practitioners working with real clients facing real struggles.

Attendees will leave with:

  • A more compassionate and effective framework for ADHD work
  • Practical interventions for emotional regulation and behavioral change
  • Greater confidence supporting adults with focus, motivation, and overwhelm challenges
  • Tools that help clients move beyond frustration into sustainable progress

For practitioners seeking a modern, human-centered approach to ADHD and behavioral change, this session delivers practical insight, usable tools, and a powerful reminder that many ADHD struggles are not failures of character — but challenges of regulation that can be understood and supported more effectively.
