You don’t lack focus.

You’re just fighting yourself.

The struggles that come with ADHD aren’t caused by lack of discipline - they’re driven by internal conflict.

I help you resolve that conflict

After the first session, I saw a 70% improvement of my ADHD symptoms. - Cally Rempis

This isn't laziness. It's internal conflict.

You know what you need to do. You want to do it. And then… something stops you.

You ever say "part of me wants to do this, but part of me wants to (do the opposite)"?

That's real. We think we have one mind, but in reality, we all have different parts of us, that want to do different things.

Here's what that looks like:

You start with a plan, but you wind up paralyzed
You can hyperfocus on the wrong thing for hours, but can't even start the right thing
You procrastinate, feel guilty, beat yourself up, and then... procrastinate more. Ask me how I know what that's like
You sit down to work and then... do anything but work

That's a conflict inside your unconscious mind. That's why I work to resolve it there.

You've tried the systems, but they missed the point

Color-coded planners. Accountability apps. The Pomodoro Technique. The 5am Club. That book with the atomic habitss.

They just create a new way to "try harder". You've been "trying harder" your whole life.
They assume you just need better reminders. That's not the problem.
The systems are hard to use when you've got ADHD...oh goodie! Something new to feel guilty for not doing!

None of it addressed the part of you that was resisting doing the thing. That's not a "fancy system deficiency problem". That's an internal conflict problem.

And that's a different conversation entirely.

The Schmidt Shift

A structured method to resolve the unconscious conflicts that hold you back

Most approaches try to override the part of you that's resisting. This one finds out what that part actually needs — and resolves the conflict from the inside.

Here's how it works

Step one - Make the unconscious conscious. Instead of a vague "I just can't...", you can see the competing intentions. That's a relief by itself.

Step two - Clarify the parts: The part that's resisting becomes understandable.

Step three - Find the positive intention. Every behavior has a positive intention. Once you understand that part's intention, resistance softens.

Step four - Resolve the conflict by helping the part find another way to meet the positive intention. (Safety and autonomy come up a lot) Then align the parts for cooperation - not "do it through willpower". This is where things get easy.

Step five - Anchor in the new alignment. Then it feels automatic. You'll notice it most when you find yourself able to easily do things that used to be hard.

What my clients are saying…

Dr. Gloria Brame - Sex Therapist and Author

Sends me "clients with issues neither therapists nor drugs have been able to remedy"

"As a long-time sex therapist, I occasionally have clients with issues neither therapists nor drugs have been able to remedy. From body dysmorphia to deep anxiety to erectile dysfunction, sometimes my clients need to resolve deep-seated issues that years of psychotherapy and sex therapy still haven’t fixed.

I know from working with Terance myself that he has a special gift for using hypnotherapy to relieve anxiety. His acumen in his field, combined with compassion and empathy, make him the right choice to help my clients get strong and calm enough to make huge progress in sex therapy after years (in one client’s case 20 years!) of working with psychologists.

All the clients I’ve referred to Terance have been quite pleased with the results and returned to me ready and able to achieve their goals. I now know exactly where to send clients whose underlying issues have been blocking their progress."

I built this because I needed it

I was a certified hypnotist helping other people get their lives together, but I had a secret. I couldn't get myself to do the work I knew I needed to do.

I'd end the day having helped clients make real progress, then lie awake beating myself up for not doing the same.

Eventually, I had a lightbulb moment: "Why don't I use these skills on myself?"

That's where the Schmidt Shift came from - not from a textbook, but from figuring out what actually worked when the usual approaches didn't.

Now I go to bed at a reasonable hour, wake up with energy, and actually do the work. It turns out the method works on its creator too.

Hi! I'm Terance Schmidt. I work with adults whose ADHD-related struggles haven't budged despite a whole bunch of "trying harder", their best intentions, and - let's be honest - a truly impressive collection of systems and planners.

When you're ready to move past fighting yourself and staying stuck, frustrated, and exhausted, book a free 30-minute shift and see for yourself.
