About UniMAAP

*Based on Understanding and Managing Adult ADHD Programme (UMAAP).

*Research by the UCD School of Psychology  (Seery et al., 2024) / (Seery et al., 2023).

What can I expect from a session?

  • All sessions are run via Zoom and are structured as a webinar, with psychoeducation and the opportunity to reflect on guidebook exercises.
  • The UniMAAP Facilitators will share their own experiences as ADHDers and provide examples of having ADHD in third-level settings and beyond.
  • There will be an opportunity to connect with others in the group via the chat and optional breakout rooms. We know from UMAAP that having a community to connect with is invaluable and empowering.
  • Our assistant psychologists monitor the chat during sessions so that they can share the key themes being discussed and ask questions to the UniMAAP Facilitators.
  • We provide optional home practices each week so that you can put what was covered in the session into practice. For each session, there is a selection of audio, video, and written resources which you can feel free to dip into in your own time.

Who can sign up for UniMAAP?

Once you are a third-level student with ADHD in Ireland and over 18 (including mature students), you are welcome to join UniMAAP!

UniMAAP is open to students who either self-identify as having ADHD or have a formal diagnosis, at all stages of their ADHD journey. Whether you are awaiting a diagnosis, are in the early stages of learning about ADHD, or are looking for some new coping skills or strategies, we hope that you will find a sense of support, inclusivity, and connection in our wonderful neurodivergent UniMAAP community.

To join us, you do not need a referral. You must be 18 or older, and enrolled in a third-level education institute in Ireland. You can be a student from a traditional CAO entry route, HEAR/DARE entry routes, registered or not registered with your college’s disability services, undergraduate, postgraduate, or enrolled in a further education and training course.

Dr Christina Seery (one of the programme’s developers and facilitators) talked about the programme.
