Do I need an ADHD diagnosis to work with a coach?
Not necessarily. Many people seek ADHD coaching while waiting for an assessment or because they identify with ADHD-related challenges.
Each coach works differently, so check their profile or discuss this during your introductory call.
How do I choose the right ADHD coach?
Look for someone whose experience, areas of specialism and coaching approach match what you need.
You may also want to consider whether you feel comfortable with their communication style and whether they understand your particular circumstances. The free introductory call gives you an opportunity to explore this before making a decision.
What happens during the free 30-minute call?
The introductory call is an informal conversation rather than a full coaching session.
You will usually discuss:
- What you would like help with
- Your current challenges and goals
- The coach’s approach
- How sessions would work
- Availability and pricing
- Any questions you have
The purpose is to help both you and the coach decide whether working together feels like a good fit.
Am I expected to sign up after the introductory call?
No. There is no obligation to continue.
You can take time to consider your options, speak with another coach or decide that coaching is not right for you at the moment.
How much does ADHD coaching cost?
Each coach is an independent practitioner and sets their own prices, packages and payment terms.
Some coaches may display their fees on their profile or website. Others will explain their pricing during the introductory call.
Are coaching sessions online or in person?
Many coaches work online, allowing you to access coaching from anywhere in the UK or internationally.
Some coaches may also offer face-to-face sessions. Check the individual profile for details.
How many coaching sessions will I need?
This depends on your goals, circumstances and the way the coach works.
Some people benefit from a short series of focused sessions, while others choose ongoing support over several months. Your coach can discuss suitable options with you during the introductory call.
Can ADHD coaching be funded through Access to Work?
Some coaches may work with clients who receive funding for ADHD coaching through Access to Work.
Availability and eligibility will vary, so check the coach’s profile and ask them directly whether they accept Access to Work-funded clients.
Is ADHD coaching the same as therapy?
No. Coaching generally focuses on your current situation, practical challenges and future goals.
Therapy may be more appropriate when you need support with trauma, significant mental-health difficulties or deeper emotional issues. Coaching is not a replacement for medical care, psychological treatment or crisis support.
Can a coach diagnose ADHD or recommend medication?
No. An ADHD coach cannot provide a medical diagnosis or prescribe medication unless they are separately qualified and authorised to do so in an appropriate clinical role.
For diagnosis, medication or medical advice, you should speak with a suitably qualified healthcare professional.
Are the coaches employed by SPEAKup Challenge?
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the coaches listed in this directory operate as independent practitioners.
You will enter into a coaching agreement directly with the coach you choose. They are responsible for their own services, fees, availability, insurance, privacy practices and professional conduct.
What should I do if the first coach is not the right fit?
That is completely normal. The relationship between you and your coach is important, and different coaches will suit different people.
You can explore other profiles and arrange a call with someone whose experience or approach may be a better match.
