1:1 ADHD Coaching for Moms Who Are Done Feeling Behind
You're not lazy.
You're not a mess.
You're not failing at this whole mom thing, despite the daily guilt spirals convincing you that you are.
You're overwhelmed and working against your brain.
Together, you will rewrite this narrative and find new ways of being that work for YOU.
What Is 1:1 ADHD Coaching?
1:1 ADHD coaching is a partnership between you and a trained coach who helps you build systems that work with your ADHD brain instead of against it.
Unlike therapy, coaching is forward-focused: less "why," more "what now."
I have spent over 1200 hours in coach training courses with ADDCA and am in the process of becoming certified. This is not the average life coaching course. We are specifically trained to support people with ADHD and to coach the person in front of us in a way that prioritizes and emphasizes strengths.
Sessions are one-on-one, private, and built around your actual life — not a generic productivity template pulled off Pinterest.
You Are Not Failing. You're Overwhelmed And Working Against Your ADHD.
That's the whole philosophy, actually.
Most of the advice out there for moms with ADHD was written for someone else's brain. Someone without Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD) flaring every time a text goes unanswered, without the 4pm wall, without constantly missing appointments from time blindness, without the particular chaos of trying to parent while time moves in ways that make no sense to you.
Coaching starts from a different place: your brain isn't broken. It's just been trying to run on an operating system it was never built for. We find the ones that actually fit.
Who Is ADHD Coaching For?
This is for you if:
You're a mom with ADHD (diagnosed or self-suspected. You don't need a formal diagnosis to start)
You're tired of systems that work for everyone except you
Rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD) makes small moments feel enormous
Time blindness means "I'll do it in five minutes" turns into two hours, every time
You want to feel focused and intentional instead of scattered and reactive without becoming someone you're not
What's Included When Working With ADHD Mama Life
Every 1:1 coaching relationship starts with an orientation session which includes conversation and education to understand how your brain actually works and have shared language.
Before that first call, you'll complete the VIA Character Strengths Survey and Executive Skills Questionnaire Created by Peg Dawson & Richard Guareso in order to build from what's already working, not just what feels broken.
From there, sessions are built around:
A neuroscience-informed framework for understanding your specific ADHD patterns
Real conversation, not a worksheet. Sessions are structured to leave room for what's actually going on that week
Shame-proofed check-ins, so an off week doesn't derail the whole process
A way to track progress that doesn't rely on willpower or motivation showing up on command
Coaching Is Not Therapy.
ADHD coaching and therapy solve different problems, and a good coach will always be honest about which one you need. Coaching is forward-focused and action-oriented, built for building systems and momentum. Therapy addresses clinical mental health needs and processes the past. Many clients benefit from both, and coaching is not a substitute for mental health treatment.
If what you need right now is clinical support, I'll say so. And I can help you think through what to look for.
About Your Coach
Hi, I'm Kim. Before I was a coach, I spent ten years as a lead teacher in early childhood education, which means I've watched a lot of brains work in a lot of different ways, including my own. I've been coaching small business owners since 2020, and I'm now completing dual certifications through ADDCA and PAAC (family specialization), building toward full certification.
I started ADHD Mama Life because the moms in my life — including me — kept getting advice that assumed a version of us that doesn't exist. This is coaching built for the version that does.

Frequently Asked Questions About ADHD Life Coaching
-
An ADHD coach focuses on building practical systems, routines, and strategies for the present and future — things like task initiation, time management, and emotional regulation in the moment. A therapist treats clinical mental health conditions and works through past experiences. Coaching is not a replacement for therapy.
-
No. Many clients come to ADHD coaching self-suspected or newly diagnosed, and some come simply recognizing ADHD-adjacent patterns in how they operate. Coaching meets you where you are. A formal diagnosis isn't a requirement to get started.
-
Most clients meet weekly or every other week, depending on what's realistic for their season of life. Consistency matters more than frequency, so session cadence is set together based on what you can actually sustain.
-
The first session is orientation, not action. We'll review your survey results, learn the neuroscience framework behind the coaching approach, and get clear on how sessions will run. Active coaching begins from session two.
-
No. While ADHD Mama Life is built around the specific pressures of parenting with ADHD, coaching is shaped around your actual life stage, whatever that looks like right now.
-
The free intro call exists for exactly this. A no-pressure conversation to talk through what you're dealing with and whether coaching (versus therapy, or nothing at all yet) is the right next step.
ADHD coaching is not a substitute for medical, psychiatric, or mental health treatment. If you're in crisis or need clinical support, please reach out to a licensed mental health professional.
