ABOUT

ADHD PEER COACHING

ADHD Peer Coaching is one-on-one, non-clinical support for adults with ADHD. Coaching addresses the day-to-day realities of living with ADHD, such as executive function, routines, and emotional regulation, helping clients build strategies and structure that actually work for how their brain functions.

What Is ADHD Peer Coaching?

ADHD peer coaching is a collaborative, non-clinical approach that helps adults with ADHD address the practical, day-to-day challenges of living with the condition. Unlike therapy, which often looks backward and inward, coaching is forward-facing and action-oriented — focused on what a client is working toward this week, not just how they feel about it. It's designed to work alongside therapy or medication management, not replace either.

Why Peer Coaching?

Peer coaching bridges science-backed strategy with the real-world understanding that comes only from lived experience. Because coaching is delivered by someone who has ADHD themselves, sessions combine current research on adult ADHD with a first-hand understanding of what it actually feels like when a plan doesn't match how your brain works. This distinguishes peer coaching from generic productivity or organizational coaching, which is rarely built around ADHD-specific patterns like rejection sensitivity, executive dysfunction, or inconsistent motivation.

What Coaching Addresses

  1. Executive Function – Planning, task initiation, and follow-through, broken into steps that work with a client's brain rather than against it.

  2. Emotional Regulation – Tools for rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD), overwhelm, and the emotional aftermath of struggling with tasks that are expected to be easy.

  3. Routines and Structure – Building systems that are sustainable for the individual, rather than generic structures that don't hold up.

  4. Goal-Setting and Accountability – Ongoing support to identify priorities, set realistic goals, and stay on track between sessions.

  5. Self-Understanding – Helping clients recognize their individual ADHD profile — patterns, strengths, and challenge areas — rather than working from a one-size-fits-all model.

ADHD peer coaching is open to any adult with ADHD, including those diagnosed in childhood, diagnosed later in life, or who strongly suspect they have ADHD without a formal diagnosis.

What to Expect

Coaching begins with a free 15-minute consultation to confirm fit before booking anything further. The first full session is an intake, used to understand a client's ADHD profile, current challenges, and goals for coaching. From there, ongoing sessions follow a consistent process: identifying where ADHD shows up in daily life, setting goals, developing strategies and structure collaboratively, and building in accountability and regular check-ins to track progress over time.

Meet Your Coach

Hi, I'm Alex!

I have a background in psychology (BSc Hons) and am currently completing a master's at Brandon University, researching the cognitive neuroscience of adult ADHD.

But more importantly, I have ADHD myself. That means I'm not just coaching from research — I'm coaching from experience!

I built this service because I know what it's like to be stuck in the gap between what you want to do and what you actually get done. And I know first hand that generic advice doesn't cut it when your brain doesn't work like everyone else's.

​​

Coaching with me means working with someone who truly gets it.
