ADHD Coaching in Seattle
Struggling with focus, organization, and follow-through despite being intelligent and motivated? We guide adults with ADHD through practical coaching so you can build habits that work with your brain and finally reach your potential.
Tired of Feeling Smart but Scattered, Capable but Constantly Behind?
You have great ideas and big goals, but somehow they never seem to translate into consistent action. You start projects with enthusiasm, then lose steam halfway through. You forget important deadlines, struggle to stay organized, and feel like you're constantly playing catch-up in life.
Everyone tells you that you're bright and capable, but inside you feel like you're failing at basic adulting. You've tried countless productivity systems, downloaded every app, and read all the books. Nothing sticks because none of it was designed for how your ADHD brain actually works.
The daily struggles feel overwhelming:
- Starting your day with good intentions but ending it feeling unproductive
- Having brilliant ideas but struggling to execute them consistently
- Feeling overwhelmed by simple tasks that others seem to handle easily
- Procrastinating on important things while hyperfocusing on random tasks
You're not lazy or broken. Your brain just processes information and motivation differently. ADHD coaching can teach you to work with your unique neurology instead of fighting against it.
What is ADHD Coaching?
ADHD coaching is a specialized form of coaching that focuses on the unique challenges and strengths of the ADHD brain. Unlike traditional therapy that explores emotions and past experiences, coaching is action-oriented.
ADHD coaching recognizes that your brain works differently, not defectively. You need strategies designed specifically for how ADHD brains process information, handle motivation, and manage attention. Generic productivity advice often fails because it wasn't created with neurodiversity in mind.
Many adults with ADHD have spent years feeling frustrated by their inability to use "normal" strategies successfully. ADHD coaching validates your experience and provides tools that actually work for your brain.
Our ADHD coaching addresses:
- Creating organization systems that maintain themselves over time
- Developing strategies for starting and completing important tasks
- Managing time and deadlines without constant stress
- Building sustainable routines that work with your natural energy
- Leveraging your ADHD strengths like creativity and hyperfocus
