Our clients often tell us they weren’t sure what to expect from ADHD Coaching when they signed up.
We’ve asked them to share in their own words about their experiences to help us explain our work. Read on to learn who our work is perfect for.
What our clients love about our coaching?
"What I loved was my coach’s flexibility to address whatever problem was most pertinent to me at that time, regardless of how silly it seemed to be. She was non-judgmental and brought her own personal experiences, and together we were able to tackle my problems."
— Paul, Psychiatrist
“My coach has a lightness of touch and challenges me in a friendly way. She doesn't get hung up on how tough something is, she is very practical and forward-looking which helped me to stay focused and take purposeful steps forward to land my promotion.”
— Danielle, Managing Director, Financial Services
“It is like finding a 'user manual' for yourself. There is no judgment, and it is teamwork together with the coach to find strategies that will help next time.”
—Janneke, Entrepreneur
“Having a coach that completely gets the subtle issues related to ADHD is invaluable.”
— Gemma, Partner at Law Firm
“In 4 months I was able to take a major step in my career which I never would have taken alone. My coach supported me to break down my goal into manageable actions, and achieve a huge milestone which has been completely life-changing for me."
— Adrienne, Entrepreneur
"You’ve helped me be more compassionate with myself and understand how my ADHD brain operates."
— Grace, Dietician, London
Who is our coaching perfect for?
"I can honestly say, anyone who is finding the struggles of ADHD frustrating will benefit significantly. In my case, it was professionally; I'd reached a level of seniority that the demands on my time had significantly outstripped my ability to deliver. I needed to find techniques I could implement to identify the possible, delegate the surplus and communicate around the rest. I can see this type of coaching working for anyone, truly."
— Max, Director of Business Intelligence & Analytics
"Someone who is feeling burned out and not sure why they find simple things like time management so much harder than other people."
— Emma, University Lecturer & Researcher
"Someone who has ADHD, doesn't feel they understand it fully and how they can overcome the challenges it can bring. Especially someone who feels like they have tried everything and is still struggling."
— Jonathan, IT Analyst
"I think most people could have amazing takeaways from this support. There is a general lack of understanding around the impact of ADHD, so why limit an amazing service that teaches the best ways to work with/for it and make lives easier?"
— Libby, HR Operations
"This is perfect for people who find life overwhelming at times, but don't understand why. It's also for people who are prepared to take that step to facing up to questions, or the need to do things differently."
- Chris, Engineer
What brings our clients to coaching?
"I'd hit a perfect storm: burnout at work, feeling like I was drowning in an unsupportive organization, and unable to stay on top of demands and expectations. With a newborn at home, I desperately needed help restoring some order.”
— Max, Director of Business Intelligence & Analytics
“My ADHD made it a struggle to keep routines, on top of tasks, and in general make the most of my life.”
— Jonathan, IT Analyst
“I was having difficulty prioritizing, managing my time, and saying no to things, which was leading to overwhelm and burnout at work.”
— Emma, University Lecturer & Researcher
“I sought coaching in a sense of deep confusion over next career steps after my adult ADHD diagnosis. How would I ever find work that I could enjoy and maintain?”
— Sacha, Freelancer
What do our clients get from coaching?
“What’s been incredible is after a few weeks of coaching, I'm no longer afraid of starting a new role and for the first time in my life feeling confident and comfortable that I'm on top of things. That feeling is rare, and it is valuable and... even more special than something my coach gave to me, it's something she helped me give myself."
— Max, Director of Business Intelligence & Analytics
“Coaching has been transformational for me. The tools that my coach has helped me put together mean that I now have a realistic sense of my workload and can communicate when I am too busy. I feel much more in control of my time. “
— Emma, University Lecturer & Researcher
“My coach helped me to find what works best 'with' my ADHD instead of fighting against it, using approaches that resonate with me. My coach helped me tap into my creativity to approach issues. I’m no longer forcing myself myself into a pre-supposed way of doing things.”
— Jonathan, IT Analyst
"I came into coaching thinking I needed to find the right structure, schedule, the magical words that would get me going. What I found instead is the ability to work with who I am today, the confidence that I can go with the unpredictable flow of my own brain and be calmer and happier for it. Instead of handing me the answers, coaching has helped me figure out how to find the answers for myself. I'm peeling back layer after layer of received 'wisdom' to discover a way of being that feels so much lighter."
— Sacha, Freelancer
"These coaching sessions over the last year have proven to be a happy and inspiring journey. I sought coaching in a sense of deep confusion over next career steps after my adult ADHD diagnosis. How would I ever find work that I could enjoy and maintain? My coach has offered me tools, strategies and understanding to reframe this early thinking. Her patient and positive approach has helped me to get clear on what’s next for me taking into account my strengths. I’ve started my business!"
— Anita, Business Consultant
"You helped me really see ADHD in a different way and gave me so many tools to try and deal with the big and small things. Above anything else, you helped me try to put me and what I actually want/need first, instead of trying to fit into the normal daisy field, and things went in an exciting direction since we finished coaching!"
— Rachel, Community Leader
