Along with my own life experiences, & years of coaching & teaching, I have a Master's in Special Education & am a graduate of an extensive ADHD Coaching/Specialist program.
Awareness is the first step. Our "symptoms" flare when we are in a state of unrest. Environments, co-existing conditions, sleep, nutrition, lack of exercise, and many other reasons can trigger these. Our support is guided by finding where the unrest lies, unpacking it, and then co-creating strategic solutions for each client's unique characteristics and situations.
I use a variety of tools for reflection, discovery of strengths/challenges, meditation, and even exercise. One of the most important tools we bring is having a trained ADHD lens to look through when supporting one with ADHD.

I view therapy as a collaborative effort from setting up treatment goals in the beginning to enable you to gain a better understanding of thoughts, feelings and behavior to develop the skills to make necessary changes to move toward the life you want.
