ADHD doesn't just affect children in the classroom! ADHD affects adults in the workplace, in relationships, in parenting, and designing a meaningful life. â€‹

​

The neurobiology of ADHD brains can cause challenges with planning and organizing, completing tasks, time management, and coping with frustration.

​

By adulthood, repeated experiences with ADHD can cause stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-confidence.​

​

Fortunately, ADHD responds well to coaching and counselling. Together we can explore effective, practical, and personalized strategies.​

Thriving businesses understand the importance of workplace wellness. Investing in a workplace wellness program has a positive effect on culture, reduces stress and burnout, increases productivity and engagement, and attracts and retains top talent.
