MY APPROACH TO ADHD COACHING

You are naturally creative, resourceful and whole.

That’s my guiding belief that shapes how I approach my work as an ADHD coach.

Many of the clients I’ve worked with are trying to be neurotypical and find ways to fix their “flaws.” But you aren’t broken. I believe managing your ADHD should be done using a strengths-based perspective.

“What is a strengths-based perspective?”

It’s the idea that you can use your strengths to help support areas of your life where you may be struggling.

  • "I was new to ADHD Coaching and didn't know what to expect. I didn't realize how much having a coach would transform my ability to manage my time, tackle projects at work that I had been avoiding, and keep up with my keys, cell phone, and other things. Berkeley's help has been life changing."

  • “We want to thank you for another year of your support! You and our son make a great team! You remain positive and share your “don’t give up, let’s try something else” attitude with him, which is such a gift. You two clearly have an open, trusting relationship, and we don’t want to disturb it. You let us know when we need to step in and we so appreciate the trust we have in you to do that. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

  • “Your suggestions are so insightful and helpful. I feel like I immediately received a direction to move towards. I know it won’t be an immediate process, which is why I started now. But I finally feel like I have been pointed in the correct direction. When you announced your practice, it felt like an answer to a prayer. I knew you were the one that could make a difference. Because I know you understand - the diagnosis, busy lives, expectations - all of it.”

  • "I reached out to Berkeley during the COVID pandemic because I am now working from home with my kids and husband all at home too. It has been so hard to find motivation and to stay organized. Her coaching has really helped me be patient with myself when things are hard. I also understand my brain better and know what motivates me and how to manage my time better. I don't get it perfect, but now I am much better at telling myself that it's ok and that I am working on it."

  • Thank you, Thank you Berkeley! Our son texted the family about using his accommodations for his exam and he seemed quite proud of it. He seems to be in a good place right now, and that makes me VERY happy. Thanks so much for reaching out and for EVERYTHING you do for him. I will say it again, you are a gift!!!!

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING A SESSION

I coach at the point of need, meeting clients where they are on their journey. In order to maximize the benefits of coaching, clients should show up to our sessions with an intention. We can then identify the direction you want to go, what is getting in the way, and what you are willing to do to move forward.

Together, we will build your Personal Operations Manual to provide structure, strategies, and tools to support you. In addition, we will focus on progress, embracing your neurodiversity, and working with your beautiful brain to make sustainable changes that improve your life.

When I work with college students, we will take time to pull together assignments from their school portal, discuss what’s coming up, and reflect on past performance. By taking the time to reflect, my clients begin to identify what study strategies work and what ones they want to change. We also touch base about other issues impacting them such as time management, medication management, sleep, hygiene, and their social life.
