About Me

I offer life coaching for adults seeking to thrive with a collection of traits
 often referred to as Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder (ADHD). These traits are often seen as problems, such as being easily distracted, unfocused, disorganised, impulsive, fidgety, and unable to stick to schedules or follow instructions from others.

When properly understood, these traits can be enjoyed and embraced as positive, useful and exciting attributes. They are also often accompanied by immense creativity, intelligence and sensitivity – but these can be suppressed, discouraged or misunderstood in the attempt to rein in or cope with the ‘problem’ traits.

I help adults with these traits to identify, harness and celebrate their 
strengths, and stand up to the challenges of having their gift in a modern
 world that doesn’t always allow space for it - and often works against it. I help adults transition from a sense of chaos, confusion, stress and sometimes hopelessness towards one of clarity, purpose, confidence, satisfaction and pleasure.

My approach draws on diverse fields and techniques including psychology, anthropology, ecology, hypnosis, art, music, mindfulness, focusing techniques, journaling, non-violent communication (NVC), breathing and relaxation, and physical movement.

Through a carefully tailored series of steps, it helps the individual discover and tap into their own unique strengths, working with their history, circumstances and ambitions, and developing solutions that work specifically for them.
