Why do you like working with high achievers who have ADHD?
We are some the most inspiring, hard-working, and courageous people on the planet. We are naturally curious, creative, and tend to have a great deal of charisma. Although we may appear to be doing alright externally, our inner world is often plagued with feelings of being overwhelmed, striving for perfection, and a deep sense of inadequacy. As an ADHD coach, I find great satisfaction in helping my clients navigate their challenges, leverage their unique strengths, and create systems to lead a more fulfilling life.
Kevin's Coaching Style
As a coach and neurodivergent individual, I understand the difficulty of managing a hyperactive mind. I am passionate about using a strength-based and human-centered approach to help you tackle your most pressing challenges. My aim is to help you learn to work with your brain (not against it!) to foster self-acceptance, take action, and develop a growth mindset.
In his coaching work, Kevin helps clients to:
-
Embrace how their unique mind works
-
Build tools to access and employ their strengths
-
Understand where and why they get "stuck"
-
Identify and remove internal barriers that get in their way
-
Create and use action plans to move toward success
