1:1 ADHD Coaching

A message from Coach Theresa:

​

As an ADHDer myself, I GET the struggle of doing the more dreadful yet necessary tasks in life... taxes, phone calls, answering emails, completing a load of laundry, doing the fricken never-ending dishes, cleaning the house, getting ready for bed... you name it!

​

As an ADHD Coach, I AM HERE FOR YOU! ✨

​

I am here for you in the nitty gritty parts of life. 

​

I am here for you with the mundane tasks.

​

I am here for you with the OVERWHELMING projects and never-ending to-do lists.

​

If you want intimate accountability... like a friend but more reliable, I AM HERE FOR YOU. 💖

​

SO, in order to truly be here for you in the best way possible, I have a unique service that I want to over-deliver to you! 

Here's how it works:

1) Each session is 90 minutes so that we don't feel like rushed or constricted when we connect. (We are both ADHDers, after all... many of us like to talk!! 😅)

• The beginning: Update me about how things have gone since the last appointment.

• The middle: During this focused coaching time, I can help you clarify your desired life and the version of yourself you will need to step into to achieve your desired life. I can also help you prioritize and make a plan of action to achieve your goals and desired habits. This time can really be for anything that serves you best, such as creating a routine or habit tracker together, creating meal plans or cleaning lists... whatever you need to thrive in life!

• The end: Before the session ends, we will make sure that you have an action plan or intentions of what to focus on before your next appointment. We will also talk about what kind of accountability I should provide you in between appointments so that you can follow-through and make progress with ease. ✨

​

2) Within two weeks after each session, you will receive either one check-in phone call (up to 15 minutes) or several check-in texts.

• Why? Accountability is SUPER important for ADHDers. This is the main way we can follow-through on tasks (because otherwise, we often lose motivation or forget... am I right? 🤪)

• How does this work? Together, we will figure out what kind of accountability will best support you to do whatever it was we talked about you doing during your 1:1 coaching session.

  • Option 1: You will have the option for me, Coach Theresa, to personally call you one time within two weeks of your coaching session so that you can debrief your progress or get a pep talk to get started if you'd been avoiding something (which does happen... life is hard sometimes).

  • Option 2: You also have the option of getting several check-in texts from me, Coach Theresa, to make sure you are staying on track. Again, these can be motivational texts if you have been struggling to get started... or reminders if you keep forgetting to do something! 

​

3) You will be set up with a client portal where you can access notes that I will write for you after each session so that you can easily see key points from our sessions, your action plans, and my accountability plan for you! You can also make your own notes, set goals or tasks for yourself, and send messages or write comments to Coach Theresa on this platform. 

​

If you don't want yet another platform/app to access, Coach Theresa can send your post-session note to you via email. 📧

4) If you want additional support beyond the 90-minute individual coaching session and the follow-up(s), we can certainly talk about some add-on options. 😊

• Maybe you need additional support to actually do the work. A body doubling session with Coach Theresa might be the personal touch you need to be accountable!

• Perhaps you crave some custom printable habit trackers or routines specific to your unique life and goals... Coach Theresa can make these for you!

• Feel free to request any additional support or resources that might improve your life by creating more ease, peace, and productivity in your life! You are no longer alone and doing it all by yourself. Because... Together We Thrive! ✨

• Additional fees will apply, but I'm in your corner, so they will be reasonable. 

​

To summarize, here is what this coaching service includes:

• 90-minute sessions

• Within two weeks after each session, you will receive either one check-in phone call (up to 15 minutes) or several check-in texts.

• Add-on options will also be available, such as body doubling sessions and customized printables/trackers/templates such as routines and habit trackers. 

​

And remember, if you live in British Columbia and have insurance coverage for a Registered Social Worker, you can get reimbursed for these sessions according to your benefits! (Same goes for my counselling service which you can learn more about here.)

​*Please note that the term "coaching" is only used to differentiate this service from our "clinical counselling" services. At Together We Thrive Coaching & Counselling, "coaching" for BC residents refers to a style of psychotherapy that includes additional aspects of what would be considered in line with coaching / ADHD coaching, such as the following: a primary focus on present and future contexts; goal-setting; homework assigned by the practitioner/coach; accountability from the practitioner/coach in between sessions (i.e., check-in phone call or texts); and structured sessions that the practitioner/coach facilitates. While this service is marketed as "coaching," it is in fact a form of psychotherapy with structure and support that might mimic coaching sessions.​
