Frequently Asked Questions
-
ADHD Coaching is a collaborative and supportive process, where the coach and client work together to identify and achieve the client's goals by developing self-awareness, systems, skills, and strategies to unlock their full potential.
This process is confidential, client-driven, and seeks to empower individuals to implement practical strategies for day-to-day challenges.
In addition to goal-oriented support, ADHD Coaches play a role in educating clients about how ADHD can ‘show up’ in day-to-day experiences. They provide information on ADHD-related tools, resources, and research, ensuring that the coaching process is well-informed and meets the client's specific needs.
One of the unique aspects of ADHD Coaching is the emphasis on customisation. Coaches work with clients to customise strategies for working with ADHD, moving beyond generic tips and tricks.
In essence, ADHD Coaching focuses on leveraging strengths to navigate various aspects of life successfully. The collaborative partnership facilitates personal growth, awareness, and conscious choices to lead the client onto a transformative and rewarding path.

ADHD coaching is different for each individual. The ultimate goal is to gain knowledge, perspectives and implement strategies that support clients towards their path of positive progress. Fortnightly sessions help build momentum and as clients continue to implement changes in thinking and behaviour. I believe clients know what they need so the number of sessions is ultimately depended on you.

I strongly believe in the saying, ‘It takes a village to raise a child’. My focus is on empowering parents with the tools and knowledge they need. Through coaching, parents gain insights into adapting their environment, creating a supportive, understanding, trusting, and safe space. This collaborative approach extends its benefits beyond individual family members, positively impacting the entire family. ADHD's effects can ripple through the family, and coaching equips parents with the skills to navigate these challenges effectively.
