Are you feeling overwhelmed and stuck in a flood of emotions?
Do you often feel like you're constantly playing catch-up, struggling to manage tasks, or working hard to overcome your challenges?
​
We often believe that a certain tool or strategy will fix our ADHD issues, leading us to desperately search for THE solution that will solve all our problems. However, this approach often leaves us struggling to overcome ADHD.
​
The key is to work WITH our ADHD, not against it!
​
We need to understand ourselves and ADHD on a much deeper level, beyond behaviours, symptoms, and emotions to get to THE root cause of our problems. By analysing your existing systems and instinctive behaviours, we can discover legitimate reasons why you do things the way you do to create your innovative system to unleash your full potential!

What 's ADHD Life Coach ?
Understanding and navigating the distinctive challenges and strengths associated with ADHD can be transformative. Emotionality plays a significant role in the ADHD experience, often presenting unique complexities and entanglements.
Together, we can explore the limiting beliefs, thought patterns, and blind spots that might be keeping you stuck. You have the power to shape a future that goes beyond your current beliefs!
By identifying the vital aspects of your ADHD issues, we can craft a personalised path that empowers your evolution, enhancing the quality of your life every step of the way!
Do I have to have ADHD ?
You don't need to have an ADHD diagnosis to benefit from working with an ADHD Life Coach. Whether you suspect you or someone you care about might have ADHD, or it’s not a concern for you at all, that's perfectly OK. Everyone's situation, struggles, challenges, values, strengths, and goals are unique.
​
We don't try to fit you into someone else's mold or solutions. Instead, we focus on highlighting what makes you special, cultivating a life that reflects your true self and plays to your strengths, unlocking a future filled with possibilities!
What is ADHD?
ADHD is a brain difference marked by an interest-driven focus, which enhances creativity and brings out unique strengths and positive qualities, allowing individuals to think outside the box and approach challenges with innovative solutions.
​
Due to an Executive Functioning impairment, some symptoms of ADHD can be particularly challenging and significantly impact daily life and self-esteem. The perception of weaknesses to overcome can feel like an identity, and the resulting guilt and shame can be overwhelming.

Testimonials
What clients says about the coaching sessions with Sumiko.
Michelle
Coaching with Sumiko helped me explore some difficult area of my life where I felt stuck.
Sumiko created a safe space for me to uncover some limiting thoughts and beliefs. Her thoughtful questions and insights allowed me to feel safe to dig deeper into how I could get out of my own way.
Coaching with Sumiko was transformational for me.
Tricia
I have had many coaching sessions with Sumiko. As a parent of 2 young adults with ADHD, I often brought issues to coaching where I was struggling to work out the best way forward. Sometimes the issues were just my own challenges. Sumiko always showed me great compassion and understanding and combined this with gentle but skilled expertise in coaching. It was so helpful to have her support to help me explore my own situations and identify my own solutions. Highly recommended.
Amila
I've had the privilege of working with Sumiko who helped me understand and support my child with ADHD while also supporting me in coping with the challenges.
I highly recommend Sumiko to any parent seeking a compassionate and effective approach to understanding themselves and their child with ADHD.
