ADHD Coaching
(With the Clinical Support You Actually Deserve)
You probably landed here because you were searching for an ADHD coach. Someone who gets ADHD, helps you stay on track, and doesn’t just tell you to “try harder” or “use a planner.”
You’re in the right place…with a slight twist.
At Wildly Authentic Counseling, we don’t actually provide coaching in the traditional sense. We provide therapy for ADHD that’s structured a lot like coaching – especially when you choose our self-pay therapy membership. That means you get the warmth and practicality of coaching, plus the depth, regulation, and clinical support of therapy.

Why We Don’t Offer Coaching Alone
Coaching is unregulated — therapy is not
Coaches cannot diagnose ADHD
Coaches cannot use therapeutic strategies to help with emotional dysregulation
Coaching cannot treat anxiety, shame, rejection sensitivity, or trauma
Coaches cannot provide documentation for school or workplace accommodations
The Deeper Work:
Healing the mental blocks
Old scripts from parents, teachers, and society
Understanding emotional dysregulation
Intensity, overwhelm, shutdowns, rejection sensitivity
Exploring identity
ADHD + trauma + masking + burnout
Rewriting the narrative
Moving from “too much / not enough” → “Wildly Authentic”
What Therapy Can Address
More Benefits of Using Our Therapeutic Coaching Style for your ADHD Goals
ADHD isn’t just about focus, time-blindness, and overflowing email inboxes. It’s about how your brain + your history + your environment all interact.
In therapeutic coaching, we can work on:
1. Executive Functioning Skills (The “Coaching” Part)
We’ll help you:
Build realistic systems that actually match your brain
Break down tasks so they feel do-able instead of impossible
Experiment with routines, reminders, and tools without shame
Learn strategies for starting, shifting, and finishing tasks
Yes, we’ll talk planners and apps if you want. But we’ll do it in a way that honors you — not some imaginary neurotypical standard.
3. Emotional Dysregulation & Big Feelings
ADHD often comes with:
Intense emotions that feel like they come out of nowhere
Difficulty calming down once you’re activated
Strong reactions to rejection or criticism
Meltdowns, shutdowns, or emotional hangovers after conflict
Therapy gives us room to:
Understand your emotional patterns
Learn regulation skills that actually fit your nervous system
Build tools for navigating conflict, transitions, and “too much” moments
Practice self-compassion instead of spiraling in shame afterward
2. The Mental Blocks No One Talks About
ADHD doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Many of us grew up hearing:
“You’re lazy.”
“You’re so smart, if you’d just apply yourself.”
“You’re too much.” / “Why can’t you just be normal?”
In ADHD-focused therapy, we can:
Explore how parents, teachers, and society responded to your ADHD
Untangle shame, self-criticism, and imposter syndrome
Work through people-pleasing, perfectionism, or fear of failure
Rebuild a sense of self that isn’t based on how “productive” you are
This isn’t just mindset work. It’s healing.
4. Diagnosis & Accommodations
As licensed therapists, we can:
Assess for ADHD and related concerns (like anxiety, depression, or trauma)
Provide an official diagnosis when appropriate
Advocate for accommodations in college, grad school, and sometimes workplaces
Help you understand your ADHD in the context of your whole life, not just a checklist
Coaching can support your goals, but it cannot provide a diagnosis, clinical documentation, or treatment for co-occurring mental health conditions. Therapy can.
Why Self-Pay Membership Makes a Difference
In short, the self-pay membership is what allows us to blend the coaching and therapy models
When you use insurance, they do not compensate us for emails or short check-ins, which are vital to a coaching strategy. With insurance we’re also required to:
Assign a mental health diagnosis
Justify your treatment to your insurance company
Fit your care into specific session lengths and frequencies
With our self-pay therapy membership, we can be more:
Flexible – mixing longer and shorter sessions based on your needs
Responsive – scheduling more frequent touchpoints
Creative – incorporating coaching-style support, check-ins, and email follow-ups
Holistic – focusing not just on “symptoms,” but your goals, identity, values, and lived experience as an ADHD human
You still get the safety and ethics of working with a licensed therapist — but with the feel of an ADHD coach who gets your brain and walks alongside you.
Who This Therapeutic Coaching Is For
This might be a good fit if you’re:
An adult who suspects you have ADHD and wants clarity and support
Newly diagnosed and trying to figure out “okay… now what?”
Juggling work, school, business, parenthood, or big life transitions
Tired of feeling “behind,” “too much,” or “never enough”
Looking for both practical tools and emotional support
Interested in a neurodiversity-affirming approach that doesn’t treat ADHD as a moral failing
What Working Together Can Look Like
While every plan is tailored to you, ADHD therapeutic coaching with us might include:
A clear understanding of your ADHD profile (strengths, challenges, patterns)
Collaborative goal-setting that actually matches your capacity
Regular sessions (sometimes shorter, more frequent ones) to keep momentum
Skills for planning, prioritizing, and following through
Space to process painful memories, shame, or burnout
Support in advocating for accommodations at school or work
Email follow-ups or summaries so you don’t have to remember everything we said
