ADHD Coaching

ADHD coaching is practical, week-by-week work on focus, planning, motivation and the systems that make daily life run for an ADHD brain.

It’s not therapy. There’s no clinical assessment, no diagnosis required, no diving into childhood. It’s about what you’re trying to do this week, and the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it.

Our coaching team works with adults with ADHD, anywhere in Australia, by telehealth.

What Does ADHD Coaching Help With?

Different things at different points, but common starting places:

Focus and follow-through

Focus and follow-through getting started, staying with it, finishing. Coaching can help build practical strategies for adhd focus and follow-through.

Planning
and time

Planning and time, calendars, reminders, working out how long things actually take you. Coaching can help build practical strategies for adhd planning and time management.

Motivation and momentum

Motivation and momentum, when the task isn’t urgent enough to force itself into your day. Coaching can help build practical strategies for adhd motivation and momentum.

Executive
function

Executive function, the practical skills around organising, prioritising, switching tasks. Coaching can help build practical strategies for adhd executive function coaching.

Rejection sensitivity

Rejection sensitivity and the emotional layer that often sits underneath ADHD. Coaching can help build practical strategies for adhd coaching. Coaching is forward-looking. We build the scaffolding for your week, then refine it as you find what works.

How Is ADHD Coaching Different From Therapy?

Coaching is for the what and how of daily life. Therapy is for the why, anxiety, low mood, trauma, the patterns underneath.

A lot of our coaching clients also see one of our psychologists for therapy. The two work well alongside each other, different tools for different jobs.

If you’re not sure which you need, the first appointment helps work that out. ADHD coaching can be a practical starting point when your main goal is focus, organisation, planning or follow-through.

How Does ADHD Coaching Work?

Sessions are by telehealth, anywhere in Australia. Most people start with a longer first session to map out what’s getting in the way, then move into shorter, regular sessions, weekly or fortnightly is common.

There’s no fixed program. The pace and rhythm are up to you.

Our telehealth ADHD coaching approach makes it possible to work with an ADHD coach from home, wherever you are in Australia.

ADHD coaching typically sits outside the Medicare framework, sessions are paid privately. NDIS may cover coaching for eligible participants. We’re happy to talk you through the cost before you commit.

Get Started With ADHD Coaching

If you’ve been wanting more structure, less chaos, and a brain that finally cooperates, ADHD coaching is a good place to start.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an ADHD diagnosis to start coaching?

No. Most of our coaching clients are diagnosed, but a formal diagnosis isn’t required to work with a coach. If you suspect ADHD but haven’t been assessed, we can talk through whether coaching alone is the right starting point or whether an assessment would help first.
