About Me

Tacoma, WA, United States
I was the Executive Director of the national non-profit organization, Attention Deficit Disorder Resources, (addresources.org), for 15 years. I am well prepared to provide you with excellent coaching. I graduated from the International Coach Academy, a coaching school certified by the Inter-national Coach Federation and I have a Master's Degree in Social Work. Over the past 15 years, I have talked with numerous people about their ADHD concerns and have attended or presented at a number of ADHD workshops and conferences. I have lived, and eventually thrived, with ADHD which was diagnosed when I was 49. I am married and have three adult sons, two with ADHD. I live in Tacoma, WA although born and raised in a small New England town. I was in the Peace Corps, toured China in 1983 when it first opened to the outside world, and seen much of the United Staes, especially our beautiful national parks. My interests, beyond helping people with ADHD achieve their full potential, are playing brain games on the computer, reading, travel, bicycling, skiing and hiking.

Do You Ever Feel Like Shouting, "I Hate Having ADHD!"

Do you ever have a day or event that slaps you right in the face with your ADHD? You have gone to the airport, but left your suitcase at home. You showed up at court for a speeding ticket, but went on the wrong day. You didn't change your clothes before starting on a craft project and now have ruined your good clothing.

"Why, oh why," you cry "do I have to be impulsive, distractible, hyperactive? " An occasional feeling like this is normal and to be expected, but if ADHD traits are getting you down day in and day out, something needs to be done.

How do you create the silver linings in your clouds? How do you change your behaviors so that your sadness about having ADHD and your belief that it is really holding you back rarely enter your mind. What changes can you make in your life so that the positives far out weigh the negatives? Coaches work with ADHD clients on issues such as these.
