ADHD Life Coaching

There is more information and support than ever before for people with ADHD. Coaching keeps you informed on best practices and new developments. Most people find there are too many options to manage it alone and end up more frustrated. What works for one person with ADHD is unlikely to work the same for everyone, so just as each person is unique, so must be the design for life.

ADHD: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

The Lived Experience

The boxes below are just a sample of the many things people describe about life with ADHD.

If you see some that fit you or a loved one, YOU ARE NOT ALONE...and coaching can help you find your way.

Lack of Focus

You know what you need to do but other thoughts intrude and dilute the focus you need to get things one.

Easily Bored

Boredom is like an invisible pain that cannot be described and you will go to great lengths to keep it from happening.

Time Blindness

Even with the best of intentions, there is always one more thing to do before you do "that" thing and you underestimate how long anything will take. You usually end up late.

Trouble Getting Started

Once you get things started, you get them done, yet you waste a lot of time thinking about it.

Underachievement

You know you are smart and there are some things you think you could be really good at, yet it seems like everyone else is always ahead of you.

Chronic Chaos

You have the desire for order in your life yet uninvited chaos shows up on a regular basis.

ADHD is so much more than being distracted or unable to focus. It is a daily dance of choosing one thing and doing another.
It's about incomplete projects, unfulfilled dreams, a need for stimulation and so much more.

It impacts

every

single

aspect

of your life.

Coaching helps you leverage the positive GIFTS and manage the problem areas!

YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN YOUR ADHD!
