"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
​-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Many of those diagnosed with ADD/ADHD struggle not only with managing symptoms such as inattentiveness, disorganization, hyperactivity, and impulsivity but also with feelings of frustration, hopelessness, and the belief that something is "wrong" with them. This could not be further from the truth!

​Individuals with ADD/ADHD posses a unique brain wiring and processing style. The key to success is twofold: understanding how ADD/ADHD is impacting your daily life and discovering how to make your processing style work for you, rather than against you.

How can coaching help me manage my ADD/ADHD?

As your coach, I will partner with you to create a safe, non-judgmental space where we can identify what may be standing in the way of you reaching your goals; explore ways in which you can maximize your strengths, passions, and talents; and develop strategies that are specific to your needs and what you want to achieve.

Please note, coaching sessions may be conducted in-person or remotely via phone or web/video conferencing, depending on the client's needs and preference. Clients may also choose to participate in monthly virtual group coaching sessions as a stand-alone or in addition to individual coaching sessions.
