Executive Coaching for ADHD/AuDHD Leaders

You've built real success, but the systems that got you here stopped being enough.

  • Maybe you're navigating a team that doesn't quite understand how you work.

  • Maybe the gap between what you see and what you can execute through others keeps widening.

  • Maybe you've gotten feedback that doesn't quite fit, from people who don't quite get you.

Whatever brought you here, you already know that generic executive coaching wasn't built for your brain.

This Coaching Is Built Around How You Actually Think

My coaching is grounded in organizational psychology, ADHD-specific research, and almost two decades of mindfulness practice. Together we:

  • Work on your leadership identity, not just tactics.

  • We develop the kind of executive presence that comes from knowing yourself well rather than performing a version of leadership copied from someone else.

  • We build organizational systems that leverage how you actually think.

Assessments and Depth

  • Evidence-based assessments (e.g. Hogan, Leadership Circle Profile) add depth and data to the work.

  • For longer engagements, stakeholder interviews give us a richer picture of how you're landing with the people around you.

How Sessions Work

  • 50 minutes, every other week

  • Voice note support between sessions for the insights that can’t wait

  • 90-minute assessment debriefs

Start With Where You Are.

One Thing Done Right

3 months

Best for leaders with a specific, well-defined challenge you want to work through: a difficult stakeholder relationship, a team dynamic that's gotten stuck, or a concrete shift you're trying to make in how you show up. Three months gives us enough runway to go deep on one thing and actually move the needle.

Patterns Underneath the Problems

6 months

Best for leaders navigating a significant transition, like a new role or a new level of complexity. You may be in a company that's scaled faster than the systems holding it together.

Six months gives us enough time to work on two things at once. We address the practical challenges in front of you, and we also look at the patterns underneath them: the version of yourself you've been performing for years and whether it still fits, what happens when the work stops activating you the way it used to, or how you've learned to translate the way you see things for people who don't see it the same way. Those patterns shape how you lead far more than any tactic does, and they don't shift quickly. Six months gives us the runway to actually move them.

Full Scope Work Engagement

12 months

Best for leaders playing a longer game. If you're managing significant stakeholder complexity, turning around team performance, shifting organizational culture, or preparing for a meaningful career leap, twelve months is where we can do the full scope of that work. 

This is also the only engagement that includes formal stakeholder interviews, which we use to build a clear picture of how your leadership is landing and where the real leverage points are.

Group Coaching

Something that happens when you're in a room with other ADHD and AuDHD leaders that individual coaching can't fully replicate. Someone names an experience you've been carrying alone for years, and suddenly it shifts from a character flaw to a pattern that other sharp, capable people share.

My group coaching program brings together entrepreneurs and leaders with ADHD and AuDHD who are navigating terrain that includes building organizations that work with your brains, managing teams who process differently, and developing leadership identities that don't require masking to sustain.

The group format is small by design, meaning the conversations get real. Sessions are held every other week, and cohorts form when the right group of people is ready, rather than on a fixed calendar.

If this sounds like what you've been looking for, add your name to the waitlist. When a cohort is forming, I'll reach out directly.
