About the Class
The Positive Psychology and ADHD Coaching
Master Class is for coaches with experience
working with individuals with AD/HD or who have
a very strong interest in doing so. This class
can also be of benefit to coaches who work with
clients who struggle with organization,
prioritization and time management. This is a
twelve-hour class.
At the conclusion of this class, each
participant will have a toolkit of practical
interventions that can be used immediately in
their coaching. Topics covered include: the
logistics of AD/HD coaching, time management,
social skills, relationships, maintaining
self-esteem, working with children and
adolescents, acceptance of the diagnosis.
In this interactive class, participants are
encouraged, but not required, to bring case
vignettes of individuals with AD/HD they have
worked with in coaching or other helping
interactions. We will use these cases to
elaborate on the many approaches one can take
when working with this population.
Positive Psychology and ADHD Coaching
Master Class:
Learning Objectives
• Know the unique core competencies required
on an ADHD coach.
• Learn what positive psychology interventions
facilitate ADHD coaching.
• Identify the techniques and approaches to
coaching individuals with ADHD and their
families that differ from general coaching
skills.
• Increase knowledge of the biological bases of
ADHD and the phenomenological experience of
individuals with ADHD.
• Create a toolkit of practical interventions to
use with clients with ADHD symptoms or with
clients who have challenges with organization,
prioritization, time management and
