I know what it’s like to not fit in, to be criticized when you’re doing your best, to feel bad or wrong, and to be frustrated with knowing that you’re capable of so much more than you’re showing to those around you. It makes us doubt ourselves and how we view reality, undermines our ability to feel capable of functioning in the world, and often triggers the dreaded rejection sensitivity. While I don’t promise that life won’t still be hard some days, I can tell you that those days will decrease as you learn to use your brain in the way it works instead of fighting against it. 

How can coaching help? 

Therapy explores the past and makes connections to how you or your behaviors developed. Not everyone needs or wants this. Sometimes the answer isn’t found in the past and has more to do with figuring out what to do about an issue in the present. Coaching is different from therapy in that coaching manages the present and future. Coaching is more about finding solutions to current problems, learning skills that maybe you should have been taught but weren’t, and with regard to ADHD or trauma how to use the brain you’ve got which is just a little different. While my specialties are ADHD and trauma, I work with all kinds of people to help them build the skills they need to find more success in life.

What do we do in coaching?

If you feel that you need less processing how you got here and more how to move on from here then coaching is probably what you’re wanting. Coaching can teach you things like

  • Communication skills: boundaries, nonviolent communication, relational skills
  • How to find a method of keeping track of your schedule that works for you
  • Building consistency with an ADHD brain
  • Ways to get your ADHD brain to do things
  • Emotion regulation: managing anxiety, managing anger, decreasing codependency in a way that works for the ADHD brain (We process emotion differently)
  • How to stop letting perfectionism, fear of failure or success, or overwhelm get in your way
  • Troubleshooting current problems such as arguments, difficulties with work, trouble with school assignments, communicating yourself to others, dating, making friends, and more.
