“During this time, the lack of motivation that can overtake people when they’re so stressed — the anxiety, and frustration — can be really hard on people with ADHD.”

ADHD coaches work closely with their clients to outline what they need to succeed, with a special focus on ADHD-related problems such as executive dysfunction that can get in the way of meeting goals.

A college student who has been told to pack their bags and go home, for example, may have trouble with the transition moving back home after being independent. “How do you suddenly get under your parents’ roof, with no warning, and have to manage that adult-to-adult relationship?” she said. Carving out a private space to study and work, and dealing with interruptions and boundaries, are problems that can spring up.

“Especially in this time, I would encourage individuals to ask [coaches] for a little tighter accountability,” she said. “It hurts me to think how all these people’s lives have been turned upside down.”ADHD coaching can cost, on average, $300 to $500 a month. Pricing depends on experience and other factors. It’s helpful to think about pricing per week, which takes into account one session, and then check-in availability in between.
