Frequently Asked Questions
Therapy often looks at the past. It helps you understand old patterns and wounds, with the aim of healing and supporting your mental health. It works from past to present.Coaching starts where you are now, with everything you bring, and focuses on moving forward, from present to future. Your wellbeing often improves along the way, as a natural result rather than the starting goal.As an ADHD coach, I bring specialised knowledge of how the ADHD brain works, so what we build fits you. Coaching and therapy also work well together, and some of my clients see a psychologist or psychiatrist alongside coaching.
No. Whether you’ve been diagnosed, are self-identified, or are simply wondering if ADHD is part of your story, you’re welcome here.If you’re also thinking about an assessment, our work together can help you prepare for it. You’ll walk in with a clearer understanding of your experiences and examples to share, which matters, because ADHD in women too often goes unnoticed.In Australia, ADHD can be diagnosed by a psychiatrist, paediatrician or psychologist, and in some states, including NSW, by specially trained GPs.
I specialise in coaching women with ADHD, as well as teenage girls from 16, but men are welcome too. I coach in English and French. Everyone is welcome here, whatever your background, culture or identity, and that includes LGBTQ+ people.
It’s a relaxed video call on Zoom, lasting about 15 minutes, sometimes a little longer if you’d like to share more. When you book, you’ll be invited to fill in a short form, so I can get to know you a little beforehand.During the call, we’ll talk about what you’re finding hard right now and what you’d like to change over the next three months. It’s also a chance to see whether we’re a good fit.There’s no pressure to decide on the spot. The next day, I’ll send you an email summarising how coaching works, so you can take your time to think it over. Either way, a quick reply is always welcome, so I know how best to support you.
The initial consultation is a 90-minute session where we look in detail at your life as it is now: your challenges, your strengths and your goals. You’ll already leave with a deeper understanding of yourself and a clearer picture of your life.Within a couple of days, you’ll receive a written report and the next steps for your program. The report marks your starting point. At the end of your program, we’ll come back to it to see how far you’ve come.
Each session lasts 60 minutes. We start with what’s happened since we last met, then you choose the topic you’d like to explore. If nothing comes to mind, that’s fine: we can look back at the goals we set in your initial consultation, and something usually emerges.We take the time to understand what really matters to you in this topic and explore it together. Along the way, you start to see what’s actually getting in your way, and from there, we work out the right next step. You leave each session with tools or a strategy that fits you.At first, shifts may feel slow, and that’s alright. This is where we build solid ground. Over time, coaching changes the way you see yourself. You find your own ways to support yourself, ones that work for you rather than a generic strategy, and you start becoming who you truly are.
Every journey is different, but I recommend 6 to 8 sessions after your initial consultation, which is roughly three months. Your first session is one week after the consultation, then we meet fortnightly. That way, you know from the start what your program looks like and can plan ahead.Your last session is a review. We compare where you are now with your starting point, so you can see your progress clearly and make sure the changes last.
I’m based in Randwick, in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. All sessions take place online via Zoom, so you can join from wherever you are, in Sydney or anywhere in Australia. I coach in English and French. You’ll receive a link and a reminder before each session.
Your first step is a complimentary call, free and with no obligation. The initial consultation is paid separately, through a secure payment link. Your coaching program can then be paid upfront or in instalments. You’ll find all the details on the Coaching Fees page.
No, Medicare doesn’t cover coaching. But you may be eligible for funding through the Employment Assistance Fund (EAF), a government program run by JobAccess. Several of my clients have had their coaching funded this way.The EAF can fund work-related support for people with disability or mental health conditions, whether you’re employed, about to start work, or self-employed, including creatives and artists. To apply, you’ll need a formal diagnosis.How it works:You contact JobAccess and fill in their application form.I complete my part, which describes the coaching, the tools and techniques we’ll use, and includes a quote.Once you’re approved, I invoice each session after it takes place, at the single-session rate.In my clients’ experience, approval usually comes within 10 days. If you’re employed, telling your employer about your diagnosis is a personal decision, as JobAccess explains here. JobAccess can confirm your eligibility, what evidence they need, and how the process works in your situation. For specialised support like coaching, funding is currently capped at $1,770.44 per person (2026).You can reach them on 1800 464 800.
Life happens, and I understand. You can reschedule or cancel a session with 24 hours’ notice. You’ll receive reminders before each session to help you keep track. If you’re running late, I’ll wait for 10 minutes. After that, the session may be forfeited, at my discretion.
Yes. If you feel coaching isn’t the right fit, you can cancel at any time with seven days’ written notice, and you’ll be refunded for any remaining sessions.
