Aged 33 I was diagnosed with dyslexia in my final year of university.
Shortly after starting my first qualified Social Work role, I was diagnosed with ADHD at age
34.
This led to a journey of self-discovery that changed my life.
And honestly? It's the
best thing that's ever happened to me.
But, once upon a time, my neurodivergence made me feel like a burden.
Before diagnosis, I spent 3 decades 'muddling through' relationships, University and my
professional career constantly in survival mode.
My life wasn't my own and I wasn't reaching my full potential.
My diagnosis helped me recognize my brain is unique and requires a different approach, one with
specific knowledge about why I process information the way I do and how I could harness my
strengths.
I realized that maybe I could help individuals who, like me, just need a little coaching, a
little clarity in their lives.
Since 2019, I've immersed myself in mental health services, embracing neurodiversity and guiding
individuals through their journeys. I specialized as an Advanced Mental Health Social Worker
with a focus on ADHD. In January 2024, I enrolled onto the UK's first accredited ADHD Coaching
Level 5 Diploma by the ADHD Foundation Neurodiversity Charity, blending traditional coaching
with ADHD-specific strategies.
Psychoeducation, an integral part of the ADHD coaching process, provides comprehensive education on ADHD, empowering individuals with diagnosed or self-diagnosed ADHD to understand their symptoms, harness their strengths, and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms, enhancing executive functioning, and improving interpersonal communication.
ADHD Executive Function coaching teaches skills for navigating adult life, such as:
Emotion regulation is the process of managing and responding to our feelings in healthy ways.
It's like being an orchestra conductor, ensuring our emotions play in harmony rather than
chaos.
Finding techniques to manage impulsivity, frustration, and emotional responses can be
particularly rewarding because these are heightened in individuals with ADHD.
Well-being coaching focused on physical health and life balance involves guiding individuals to
healthier lifestyles.
Coaches help set achievable goals, like regular exercise and
balanced nutrition, while ensuring clients manage stress and maintain harmony in daily
activities, ultimately enhancing overall life satisfaction and physical well-being.
My coaching can help you learn and understand about ADHD and support you through any stage of your journey.
My coaching services help adults struggling with ADHD symptoms gain control and thrive.
I offer strategies to enhance time management, organisation, and productivity at work.
I assist students who are age 18 and over in developing study skills and academic achievement.
