What is ADHD Coaching?
ADHD brains are wired differently — and simply understanding why you think, feel and respond the way you do can be transformative in itself.
At the heart of ADHD are executive function challenges — the everyday skills of planning, organising, managing time and self-regulation that can feel like a constant battle. But coaching is strengths-focused. Together we uncover what you're naturally good at and collaboratively create a bespoke 'operating manual' designed to help you work with your unique brain, not against it.
For parents, that understanding extends to making sense of your child's world too, and finding calmer ways to navigate it together.
My approach is warm, practical and evidence-based — gently challenging the stories we tell ourselves about what we can and can't do — so that with greater understanding and a quieter mind, you can focus on what's possible and start building the life you want.
I work with adults, parents, and young people from 15+, online via Google Meet.

Ruth Gover AACC, CACP Certified ADHD Coach
I am a certified ADHD coach holding both AACC and CACP credentials, having trained at ADDCA (based in New York), which is regarded internationally as the pre-eminent ADHD coaching academy.
I am late diagnosed ADHD – many years after my son was diagnosed aged 8. I have learnt a lot along the way about how unique and brilliant an ADHD brain can be when channelled in the right direction. I would love to help you understand more about who and why you are, explore different ways of thinking about yourself, and discover new approaches to achieve what you really want out of life.
