Nope! No formal diagnosis is required to work with me. I welcome anyone formally diagnosed, self-diagnosed, questioning if they may have ADHD, or believe ADHD coaching will help them in any way.

I have completed the basic ADHD & life training certification program at ADD Coach Academy, which is over 100 hours of training. I am also working with a mentor coach to further develop my skills.

I am currently working towards becoming ICF (International Coaching Federation) and PAAC (Professional Association for ADHD Coaches) certified.

Additionally, I have completed level 1 certificates of study in ADHD and foundations with the Institute for Challenging Disorganization.

While coaching can provide many benefits, it is not the same as therapy. Therapy can support you with mental health conditions, unpacking trauma, patterns, etc. ADHD coaching is all about finding future focused, actionable ways that you can work with the challenges that come up in your day to day life.

A few example coaching topics include:

- I'd like to figure out strategies for combatting time blindness

- My life is so overwhelming and I'm always playing catch up, how can I feel on top of things?

- I'm struggling with school and managing all my classes, I need to get this sorted out

- I can't seem to stay on top of my laundry

A few examples of things that are not coaching topics include:

- I need strategies for coping with anxiety

- I've been feeling depressed lately and need someone to talk to

- I want someone to help me process a trauma I experienced

I offer a free discovery call which can be a great opportunity to discover if ADHD coaching is the right fit for what you'd like to work on.

You can participate in coaching and therapy at the same time, and they have the potential to compliment one another.

That being said - you do need to be in a stable enough state of mind to get the full benefit of coaching.

If you are already actively in therapy, I would recommend discussing with your therapist if ADHD coaching would be appropriate for you at this time.

I am located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada! I offer coaching virtually remotely which means I can work with clients all over the world.

I have a limited amount of sliding scale spots available. Please reach out if this is something you need!
