As an ADHD coach, I begin by assessing the structures that the client uses to manage their time, their memory, and their “stuff”. We then develop a strategy that allows them to use better management skills to reach a goal that they have chosen. ADHD coaching takes a very pragmatic approach to helping the client to set priorities, budget time in their weekly planner, and manage their “stuff.” An attention deficit coach can also help to maintain motivation while the client is establishing a new routine. The coaching relationship is individually tailored to meet the needs of each person.
A Coach And Client May Address:
Structuring a plan to lessen the gap between ability and performance.
Uncovering the client’s innate talents and utilizing those talents in building a foundation for success.
Developing stress management skills to avoid overwhelm.
Establishing a supportive relationship that is a complement to medication management and/or counseling.
Improving social skills as well as communication skills, and fostering a resilient approach to life.
