What is an ADHD Coach?
Specialized ADHD coaching can be a helpful service for children, families and adults. An ADHD coach is someone who offers genuine support, caring, encouragement, and direction to the person with ADHD to help keep them on track and moving in a positive direction. ADHD Coaches can have multiple roles which may involve:
- supportive listening
- increasing motivation
- staying on task
- managing time
- developing organizational skills
- building self-awareness and confidence.
Coaching is a partnership between the coach and the client that is designed to support clients as they work toward fulfilling personal and professional goals. Through individualized assistance and support, coaches help people to concentrate on where they are now, where they want to be, and how they can get there.
