My ADHD Experiences

ADHD has been a constant companion for my entire life. But I only discovered in the last few years how much impact it has had on me and my family. I have been academically very successful, despite my own ADHD struggles, having graduated from the University of Georgia, followed by earning three masters degrees from other universities. And I am proud of the spouse and three kids I have been gifted with and who bring me joy every day. Nevertheless, my untreated ADHD has affected my mental and emotional health throughout the decades of my life. And it is my hope that I can step in to support, encourage, and hold accountable those that are struggling, so they can achieve a greater sense of mental, emotional, and social peace as I have found.

As a result of these personal experiences, I am very familiar with the patterns of life of someone with ADHD, and how these patterns impact those that care about and interact with the person with ADHD. As I have grown, I have learned through trial and error what works for me or my family members and what doesn’t work. And these strategies are unique for each person. What works for me may not work for someone else. And what doesn’t work for me, may be great for someone else.

This is where ADHD coaching comes in to play. As a coach, I look at the person in front of me, to investigate where the struggles are and how this person can overcome these struggles.  As a result, you will not receive a cookie-cutter package with a neat bow on top. You will get someone that cares and understands the struggles, as well as a person that has the knowledge and training to help you grow in your own knowledge and ability to overcome these struggles.
