Approach

An ADHD coach helps clients address personal, social, and occupational obstacles encountered due to ADHD symptoms. Underlying ADHD symptoms are "Executive Functions" (EFs). EFs are mental functions guiding how we interpret and interact with the world. Being an ADHD coach, I would assist you in assembling effective strategies to improve managing day-to-day life. This would also include instilling an excellent structure and addressing skills and action plans. Recognizing EFs and where there are weaknesses could facilitate the coaching process and the client's success.

An ADHD coach may help you improve specific areas of your life that underscore executive functions.

ADHD coaching can encourage the development of more success in task performance, promoting social skills, and managing emotions. As a professional coach, I would help identify and reach your needs and goals, underscoring executive functions.

FAQs about ADHD Coaching

  • I begin with an approximately 20-minute complimentary consultation. In this session, we establish the potential for a partnership, followed by a 60–90-minute Strategy and Planning Session. You can choose from different packages reflecting your goals and preferences to pursue coaching with me.

  • I coach people with and without ADHD. There are multiple reasons people seek coaching, irrespective of an ADHD diagnosis. Coaching can help clients overcome a myriad of life's challenges, and you don't need to have ADHD to deal with those.

  • The length and duration of coaching is dependent on the client's needs. Typically, there is at least a three-month commitment, and the average duration is 3-6 months. The central goal is to create change that will last. To accomplish this, we would make a solid foundation, focus on overcoming weaknesses with strengths, and provide the time to allow strategies to overcome executive dysfunctions to become ingrained.

  • My role is to promote self-awareness and create a space for meeting goals. But the purpose of coaching is yours, and I support you in that process. You possess both the map and compass, but I am here to help you navigate your way toward your goals.

  • ]I will ask that you have an agenda before the session. This agenda can be a challenge or goal you would like to meet. The agenda can be simple to complex. Anything brought to light is accepted, but there should be an agenda. I will send you a "session preparation" form to journal 24 hours before each session.

  • Please alert me if you are running late to the session. If the session is missed, it will be at my discretion if there is a charge.

  • I am happy to receive emails and texts between sessions, but issues that have become more involved should be assigned more often for the session to work through adequately.

  • The payment is made before our meetings using any major credit or debit card through the PAYPAL invoice I will send to your email.

  • The session will be forfeited without a refund if I do not receive a payment.

Mindfulness

Discovering focus wherever I go—enjoying a moment of mindfulness abroad, sipping coffee uniquely and unforgettably. I deliver this form of intentionality to my ADHD coaching sessions, helping others learn more about themselves and pave their unique path to navigating their worlds, promoting success and empowerment.

ADHD doesn't represent a wall without a door. Instead, it's an obstacle you navigate with the strengths you can use. These include but are not limited to being resourceful, intelligent, creative, and using out-of-the-box thinking.
