Do coaching credentials really matter?
​You decide.

Credentials let you know that a coach has achieved a level of education, training and experience evaluated by a third-party.

They also tell you a coach has voluntarily chosen to embrace a code of ethics with service to the client at its core. You, the client, know there's someone you can contact should there ever be any questions or concerns about your client experience.

As of Spring 2026, there were fewer than 2,000 ADHD coaches of record around the globe who approach coaching with an understanding of ADHD's positive impact and potentially negative consequences. Of those 2,000, less than 200 held experience/knowledge-based professional level certification through the Professional Association of ADHD Coaches (PAAC). Even fewer held both a PAAC professional level credential and an experience & knowledge-based professional level credential from the  International Coaching Federation (ICF). In Minnesota, there is only ONE (1) ADHD Coach who holds both...who ascribes to the codes of ethics of both credentialing bodies....

​Could that training, expertise, experience and
commitment to maintaining an ethics-driven practice
make a difference for you? Let's talk.
Professional ADHD Coaches undergo specialized training to work with individuals living with diagnosed or undiagnosed ADHD or
other neurodevelopmental differences.

I also work with individuals who have executive functions challenges or impairments created by traumatic brain injuries, illness or trauma.

This is a judgement-free zone. I listen, observe, and ask questions as your guide, navigator or translator.

Together, we get to the which, what, how, where and when so you can move forward, becoming who you know yourself to be and want to be!

ADHD Coaching does not offer an overnight fix. 
How much you practice, explore, experiment and engage matters.
Are you ready to transform your life?

Ahmann E, Saviet M, Otto M. Coaching for Adults With ADHD: A Prospective Study. American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine. 2026;0(0). doi:10.1177/15598276261432960
Abstract
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) persists into adulthood for many and can also be newly diagnosed in adults. ADHD coaching is a form of support that can be used independently or integrated into a multimodal treatment approach. This report presents pre-post intervention findings from a single-arm mixed-methods study of a 12-session individual ADHD coaching engagement for adults. Coaches meeting defined criteria recruited clients through their private practices, screening for study eligibility. The coaching engagement followed a manualized approach, and coach-client working alliance was high. READ MORE here...
