So, what’s the difference between ADHD coaching and psychotherapy?

Great question—because they’re not the same, but they sure can be a dynamic duo.

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is about healing. It dives into the deeper layers—emotions, past experiences, patterns, and pain points. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, or just feeling a bit lost in the fog, therapy offers a safe, steady space to untangle things with care.

ADHD coaching

ADHD coaching, on the other hand, is about action. It's present and future-focused—helping you build tools, strategies, and systems that work with your brain, not against it. We’ll look at things like time management, motivation, executive function challenges, and turning those brilliant ideas into follow-through.

Both paths are centered in compassion, understanding, and zero judgment. Sometimes you might need one. Sometimes a blend of both. We’ll figure that out together.

A few things you should know:

  • You don’t need to have it all figured out to start.

  • You are not “too much” or “not enough.”

  • Your quirks, your questions, and even your chaos are welcome here.

Feel free to explore, get comfy, and reach out when you’re ready. I’m here to support you, in whatever way makes sense for your journey.

With warmth and curiosity,

A Note on Boundaries Between Coaching and Psychotherapy

Because I offer both ADHD coaching and psychotherapy, it’s important to know that these are two distinct services—and I keep them that way.

While there can be some overlap in the kinds of conversations we have (after all, life is beautifully messy), each modality has its own focus, purpose, and ethical guidelines.

Psychotherapy is a clinical service. It involves mental health support and often works with deeper emotional healing, trauma, and diagnosis. As a psychotherapist, I am bound by specific licensing regulations and confidentiality laws in the region(s) where I am registered.

Coaching, on the other hand, is a collaborative and goal-focused process. It’s about forward momentum, practical tools, and building systems that work for your neurodivergent brain. Coaching is not a substitute for therapy, and it doesn’t involve clinical mental health treatment.

I do not offer both services to the same client at the same time.
If we begin our work together in one modality and it becomes clear that the other would better serve your needs, we’ll talk about that openly and compassionately. I can help refer or transition you, but we’ll always keep the boundaries clear for your safety and clarity.

Your growth deserves integrity, structure, and care—and I’m here to honor that every step of the way.
