For attention, follow-through, and task completion
ADHD to Action
Getting yourself to start or follow through shouldn't feel this hard. After this, it won't!
The Problem
You've been here before....
You know what needs to get done.
You think about it. You plan for it. You even intend to start.
And then… nothing.
The task sits there while your brain looks for an easier entry point. You reorganize, check something quick, adjust your plan, or tell yourself you’ll start in a few minutes. Hours pass and the important work never actually begins.
This is not a knowledge problem and it is not a motivation problem. It is an activation problem.
The brain hesitates at the moment action should start. When a task feels uncertain, effortful, or undefined, your attention shifts toward something immediately engaging instead. The result looks like procrastination, but what you are experiencing is a stalled start response.
The pattern is familiar:
You delay starting even things you care about
You wait for the “right mood” before beginning
Small tasks pile into large ones
Deadlines create last-minute sprints
You work hard but still feel behind
You know you are capable of more than your output shows
Over time this creates real consequences — missed opportunities, unfinished responsibilities, and growing frustration because your performance does not match your ability.
You are not struggling with intelligence. You are struggling with the gap between intention and action.
That gap is what this program is built to change.
The Solution
Reduce the friction
ADHD to Action addresses the “glitch” — the space between what someone knows they need to do and what actually happens.
These brains are always active. They scan, process, and look for patterns nonstop.
Because of that, they constantly look for relief.
Activities that provide immediate engagement, like gaming or fast content, supply it easily. Homework, chores, emails, and responsibilities do not. So the brain postpones them until pressure is high enough to force action.
From the outside this looks like laziness or avoidance. From the inside it feels like pushing against resistance that never turns off.
This program works by changing what happens at that moment of resistance.
In session, you'll learn to notice the internal signal — the tension and mental friction that appears right before avoidance.
Instead of escalating into frustration, shutdown, or last-minute panic, the signal becomes a cue to move. Action becomes possible without needing stress, crisis energy, or the right mood.
People often describe it as finally being able to shift gears without 'popping the clutch'.
Afterward, starting feels easier, switching tasks is smoother, and follow-through improves because the brain is no longer fighting itself. Strategies they already know how to use begin working because they can actually access them.
Common changes:
Starting tasks sooner
Less arguing, frustration, or shutdown
Better transitions between activities
More consistent work completion
Less shame and guilt around unfinished responsibilities
A steadier sense of control and confidence
This is hands-on. You are not lying back waiting to be fixed. You learn to catch the signal that used to stop you and respond to it differently. When that changes, action becomes easier to start and easier to keep going, and the results finally match what you know you are capable of.
The Protocol
How we fix the 'glitch'
This is not talk therapy and it is not a lecture about productivity.
We are not spending sessions discussing why tasks matter. We are changing what happens when your brain encounters the moment you need to begin, continue, or switch tasks.
The protocol follows a structured process designed to interrupt the automatic shift away from action and replace it with a usable response.
Phase 1 — Signal Mapping
We identify when the pattern starts: transitions, open-ended work, effortful thinking, decision points, or moments without clear structure. You begin to see how predictable the reaction actually is.
Phase 2 — Interruption
Using focused hypnosis, we step into that moment. The brain learns to pause instead of moving toward distraction, frustration, or avoidance. The automatic pull away from the task loses strength.
Phase 3 — Response Update
We change the reaction to the signal. Instead of delay, shutdown, or waiting for pressure, the brain moves into action. Starting requires less buildup and less emotional energy.
Phase 4 — Reinforcement
We stabilize the response under normal conditions so it holds during real school, work, and daily responsibilities.
We address one behavior loop at a time so the change is noticeable quickly.
Most people leave the first session noticing something specific: beginning feels easier. Tasks that previously required urgency, stress, or last-minute pressure can start without the internal resistance.
The mechanics: Why it works
Precision Work foR sustainable change
The difficulty with follow-through does not start with a decision.
It starts with a signal in the nervous system.
Effortful thinking, transitions, unclear steps, or pressure trigger the brain to look for relief. Over time the brain learns that shifting attention is the fastest way to reduce that tension.
The move away from the task happens automatically, often before you realize it.
This process changes the response at that level:
Nervous system regulation
Instead of sitting in a constant tension-and-relief cycle, your brain settles. When the internal pressure drops, the need to escape the task drops with it.
Interrupting the relief loop
Right now your brain expects relief whenever effort rises. We weaken that learned pattern so the cue no longer forces avoidance, delay, or distraction.
Somatic cueing
You learn a physical response that replaces the shift away from the task. Instead of switching activities, your brain has another action available and engagement can continue.
Behavior stabilization
Once the automatic reaction slows down, attention can hold. Starting and continuing no longer require last-minute urgency or emotional buildup.
We are not relying on reminders, planners, or willpower. We are changing what your brain does in the moment the signal appears.
Who this is for...
For those who can accomplish more than they are
This is for people who have already tried to get organized and watched the same pattern return.
You made schedules. You bought planners. You set reminders. It worked briefly and then things slid back.
You do not need another system. You need the gap between intention and action to change.
This fits if you recognize yourself here:
The delayed starter
You sit down to begin work, school assignments, or responsibilities and spend long stretches preparing to start instead of actually starting.
The last-minute sprinter
Nothing happens for days, then pressure hits and you complete hours of work in one intense burst.
The task switcher
You move between activities, clean, reorganize, research, or adjust plans but important tasks remain unfinished.
The shutdown or blow-up
Transitions create frustration, arguments, or avoidance. Small responsibilities feel disproportionately overwhelming.
The capable underperformer
You understand the material and know what to do, yet your output does not match your ability.
The parent watching it happen
You see a smart kid who wants to do well but cannot reliably follow through. Reminders, consequences, and support have not fixed the pattern.
This is not about forcing motivation or becoming a different personality. It is for people who want their effort to finally produce consistent results.
Who's behind this?
Your Partner in the Process
I see this pattern every day.
Students, professionals, and capable people who understand exactly what they need to do, but cannot reliably follow through.
They plan, intend, and care about the outcome, but action does not consistently happen. Over time that gap creates frustration, self-doubt, and a sense that they are underperforming their own ability.
I have worked as a therapist and a coach. Those approaches depend on insight, logic, and accountability. Many clients improved briefly, but the same pattern returned because the struggle was not understanding what to do. The struggle was accessing action at the moment it mattered.
Hypnosis changed that.
Instead of trying to reason through the resistance, we intervene at the signal that appears right before avoidance. When that response shifts, people no longer have to fight themselves to begin.
The friction drops and effort starts producing results.
What people notice first is simple:
Starting takes less buildup
Transitions are smoother
Emotional reactions settle faster
Tasks get completed
Confidence improves because follow-through becomes reliable
My background is in performance-based behavior change. I’ve spent years working in high-pressure environments where focus, decision-making, and follow-through matter — teaching, emergency response, leadership, and crisis management.
The same principles apply here: identify the glitch, update the response, and the output changes.
Sessions are structured, private, and conducted in person in Phoenix.

The Investment
Here's What You Get
3 Session Program — $795
This is a structured intervention designed to change the gap between intention and follow-through so the improvement shows up in everyday school, work, and responsibilities.
Before the first session you complete a brief intake, a self-sabotage assessment, and a personal profile. These allow us to identify where the pattern actually begins so the work is targeted from the start instead of spending sessions on background discussion.
The program includes one 90-minute initial session and two 60-minute deep sessions. Between the in-person visits you receive three 20-minute Zoom reinforcement sessions. Each step addresses a different part of the pattern, and the reinforcement sessions stabilize the change while you are applying it in real life.
The sequence follows behavior-change principles: interrupt the signal, update the response, and strengthen it under normal conditions so the change becomes reliable rather than temporary.
All sessions are private and scheduled in advance.
What people usually notice: starting takes less buildup, tasks begin sooner, transitions are smoother, emotional reactions settle faster, and follow-through improves. Work gets completed more consistently and confidence increases because effort finally produces results.
6 Session Program — $1,200
This option is for deeper patterns, long-standing habits, or clients who want extended reinforcement.
The structure begins with the same initial 90-minute session and continues with five 60-minute deep sessions, each paired with reinforcement work between visits. Additional sessions allow us to address multiple behavior loops, strengthen task initiation across different environments, and stabilize consistency over a longer period of time.
The extended sequence gives the brain repeated successful experiences initiating, switching, and completing tasks under normal daily conditions so the response becomes automatic rather than effortful.
All sessions remain private and scheduled in advance.
Clients choosing the extended program typically want steadier routines, improved organization, and reliable follow-through across school, work, and home responsibilities.
The goal is not forcing motivation. The goal is consistent action and dependable performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach me at dennis@tyrrellconsulting.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Yes. You are awake the entire time and you can talk, move, or stop the session whenever you want. Hypnosis is a focused attention state, not unconsciousness. Research using brain imaging shows people remain responsive and aware while attention is narrowed. You cannot be made to say or do anything against your will.
We review your intake so I already know your patterns. You sit comfortably, we guide your attention into a focused state, and we work directly on the urge-response loop. You will not be performing or revealing secrets. Most people describe it as a very calm, clear mental state where the brain finally stops scanning for stimulation.
Skepticism is normal and does not prevent hypnosis. The only requirement is the ability to follow simple instructions and focus attention for short periods. I work with skeptical clients regularly. They do not need to “believe in it.” They only need to participate.
Those approaches depend on reminders, logic, and accountability after the problem shows up. This work targets the moment right before the shift away from action happens. When that reaction changes, you do not have to rely on constant self-control to begin or continue tasks.
Attention states deepen more reliably in a controlled environment. Studies comparing in-person and remote hypnotic work show stronger responsiveness when distractions are removed. The office setting allows your brain to settle quickly and produce a noticeable change during the session.
Yes. Clinical hypnosis has been studied for decades and is considered a safe behavioral intervention when conducted by a trained practitioner. You remain aware, your memory remains intact, and you return to normal alertness at the end of the session.
No diagnosis is required. This is for anyone who struggles with challenges commonly associated with ADHD like procrastination, time management, task paralysis, or losing focus.
Yes. The difference is you can actually use them. Many clients already know effective strategies but cannot access them consistently. Once the internal resistance decreases, those tools begin working.
Many people notice a shift after the first session — the urge is quieter and easier to ignore. The following sessions reinforce the change so it holds during normal routines.
The 3-session program works well for clear, specific follow-through problems. The 6-session option is better for long-standing patterns, emotional shutdowns, or multiple areas of difficulty. If unsure, start with 3 sessions and extend if needed.
No behavioral change works for everyone. The structured sequence and reinforcement sessions are designed to improve reliability and reduce relapse. Most people experience meaningful improvement when they complete the full program and apply the changes between visits.
Ready to stop fighting your brain?
If you recognize this pattern, you already know how much energy it takes to keep fighting it. The next step is simply choosing a time and starting the process. Once you schedule, you will receive the intake forms and instructions so your first session is focused from the moment you walk in.
