ADHD Coaching

“Learning how to effectively manage the multi-tasking capabilities of this disorder may truly increase your success. Many very successful people have achieved great success with ADHD. It is a Dis-order that may be put Into-order”

 

What is ADHD Coaching?

ADHD coaching is a dynamic methodology that aims to nurture your ability to self-initiate change in your daily life. It is a supportive, practical, concrete process in which you and your coach work together to identify and pursue your goals. Coaching helps individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) to develop the structures necessary to function effectively and to learn practical approaches to the challenges of daily life.

At the heart of the AD/HD coaching model is the aim to help clients to self-initiate change in their daily lives. This goal is ultimately accomplished by using strength-based strategies and the client’s own innate creativity to solve problems. The coach provides structure, feedback and encouragement to keep the learning process a dynamic one. This is done until the client increases self-awareness, builds an arsenal of strategies from which to draw from, and develops the confidence in his/her own ability to self -manage.

Therapist and client develop a user-friendly partnership to motivate and move forward. This partnership enables you to figure out exactly what you need from coaching and how to get it. Your job will be to tell the coach where you need help and then to mold and shape the dynamics of the partnership.

We also use structuring, to improve your focus and to channelheadline-heal-adult-adhd your abilities to function at your best and achieve your goals. Structuring takes you repeatedly through the steps of attending to details, planning, organizing, and prioritizing, until you’ve paved a path in your brain with boundaries to keep you from straying off course.

Therapist/coach guides you in self-exploration and learning. The focus is on problem-solving through guided discussion, so the language the coach uses is for  the purpose of drawing solutions from you. Because you come up with your own solutions, you become empowered and can more readily take ownership and control of your actions.

 

 

Veronica’s coaching method takes into account the newest research in neurobiology and uses effective techniques including hypnosis for specific ADHD behaviors. Exciting discoveries made by neuroscience suggest that the brain is flexible in its ability to learn continually. Research provides evidence of physical and chemical changes that occur in the brain when it is challenged or when new encounters are experienced. Rehearsing actions actually help to forge new neural pathways in the brain, allowing it to develop competencies in areas that historically have been deficient. This is how new habits are learned. Veronica uses her experience as a Psychotherapist and Hypnotherapist to coach others into managing their ADHD and using it to their advantage.
