ADHD coaching to help you thrive

Wed, Dec 31, 2025

ADHD is far more than an attention challenge; it is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that affects executive functioning such as organisation, planning, working memory, time management and emotional regulation.

With ADHD coaching, the goal isn’t to “fix” your ADHD, but to understand it deeply enough to harness its strengths while developing effective strategies for areas of challenge. Clients discover that what they once viewed as personal failings are common ADHD experiences that can be effectively managed with different approaches, techniques, tools and mindset. ADHD coach Fiona Timothy supports her clients to maximise their potential, create their goals and an accountable plan. She works with adults who are newly diagnosed, those in the process of diagnosis, or those who are already aware of their ADHD.
