About Coach Sumiko
Accredited ADHD Coach
I'm Sumiko Stacey, an ICF ACC accredited ADHD coach based in South East England, providing personalised ADHD coaching online throughout the UK and internationally in English and Japanese.
My work is centred around one word: capacity.
I help people understand their brain, recognise what affects their ability to think and act, and build the capacity to navigate life with greater clarity and intention.
My own experience of trying to work harder to overcome perceived weaknesses eventually led me to understand ADHD differently: not as something to fix, but as a way of functioning that needs the right understanding and support.
That experience shaped the way I coach today: curious rather than judgemental, practical rather than prescriptive, and focused on helping each person discover what genuinely works for them.

This recognition fuels my commitment to ensure no one has to navigate ADHD challenge alone or in silence.
I take a compassionate, practical and exploratory approach, helping you develop self-awareness and strategies that can be adapted to your real life rather than following a one-size-fits-all system.
If you’ve spent your whole life feeling “not enough”, pushing harder, yet still feeling behind & out of control... You're not broken.
Your brain just hasn't been supported in the way it works best.
No more endless self blame.
No more quick fixes that fade.
Ready to create your systems that optimise how your brain functions best?
"Sumiko skilfully help you see ADHD challenges in more useful brighter light. Carefully and gently she somehow guide you on the path towards solutions you held yourself but didn't know. I would highly recommend her to anyone with ADHD/life overwhelm."
Testimonial
Mai
"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 compassions 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."
