ADHD Coaching

[THR2]

Hello,

Have any of you invested in an ADHD coach for your child? My son is a freshman in HS and I’m working with him frequently to plan getting help in classes he needs extra help in, organizing his binder, etc. He is a smart kid, and when it comes to school, he struggles with many executive functions needed to be successful. I have even considered looking into becoming a ADHD coach myself (from what I read so far, it takes months to be certified).

If you/ your kid has experience with having a coach, I am interested to know your experience and where you received services. Thank you!

Hi! We've had great success with an EF coach. It took awhile to find the right fit/individual but we are seeing a difference in how our 9th grader handles her homework. The coaching is not cheap and we've learned that your child must want the coaching in order for it to truly work. Our daughter is learning some valuable skills and strategies for both school and daily life.

Thank you for your response! I’m glad things are going well for your daughter, it’s a good feeling when your kid is thriving and is getting what they want/need. Can I ask where you found services, from an agency, through a site. I have seen posts from companies that offer it but this is rather new to us so I am not sure what to expect. Thanks!
