Attention Defiict Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Coaching Experience
I am first and foremost an educator who has been providing help for ADHD and coaching individuals with different learning styles since 1980, when I began my career in special education.
I work from a deeply felt and researched model. This guides me to understand that all learning takes place within the context of meaningful and rewarding relationships.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) COACHING IS UNIQUE
When my clients understand that I am not judging them, they are able to relax and feel safe enough to expose what many in their world have labeled as negative behaviors.
I help them understand that what they have been doing has been their own creative way of trying to meet their essential needs, and that it is worth developing rather than repressing.
PROFESSIONAL BIO
My own childhood was greatly impacted by a child with special needs when my older brother became profoundly deaf at the age of 17 months.
Only 15 months younger than my brother, I developed an acute sensitivity to his needs and, in my love for him, began to develop myself as a responsive and attuned caregiver. This has never changed.
