It's important to get a coach who is trained in ADHD, not just a “life” coach. ADHD coaches know about impulsivity, executive functioning delays, etc.
An individual has to want to be coached, for ADHD coaching to be effective.
You can have a trail of co-morbidities related to the rotten way the world has treated you. Coaching can help families approach kids with ADHD in a more effective way for everyone.
