what does a coach do?
The coach's role is to help the client (the person being coached) figure out their goals, discover more about themselves, and come up with their own solutions and plans.
The coach also helps the client stay on track and accountable for the actions they decide to take towards achieving their goals.
A good coach knows that the person being coached is the expert in their own life.
What’s so special about coaching?
Positive Reinforcement
Coaches provide positive reinforcement and acknowledgment for a person's strengths, achievements, and efforts. This recognition can boost confidence and self-worth.
Setting goals
Coaches help individuals set realistic and achievable goals. As clients make progress toward these goals, they experience a sense of accomplishment, which positively impacts their self-esteem.
Challenging negative beliefs
Coaches work with clients to identify and challenge limiting beliefs and negative self-talk. By reframing perspectives and focusing on strengths, individuals can develop a more positive and empowering self-narrative.
specialist adhd coaching
An ADHD coach can work with you to help you uncover how your ADHD affects you individually. They will support you to try out and discover the ways of working which can help you to overcome your hurdles and achieve success on your own terms.
Not Robots Coaching trained with the ADHD Coaching Academy (ADDCA), one of only two training schools internationally that are accredited by the Professional Association for ADHD Coaches (PAAC)
Your coach will work with you to:
Provide education about ADHD
Support you to build upon your strengths
Support you to develop new strategies and systems in your day-to-day life to help you to minimise the impact of your ADHD symptoms
*When looking for an ADHD coach, please note that in the UK there is no regulation of this industry. This means that anyone can set up as an ADHD coach.
Make sure your coach has had appropriate training!
children & young people / families
Life can sometimes be quite challenging for neurodiverse children.
Coaching can help to a child or young person to navigate issues such as:
- Communication difficulties
- Stress and overwhelm
- Self confidence, and understanding their uniqueness and strengths
- Education, and getting on better at school
- Motivation
- Study skills, including planning and organising
- Social skills, including friendships
In addition to this, we work with the parent/family, coaching them to be able to help at home and reinforce the learning that takes place during the sessions.
In families where there is more than one person with ADHD we can work with individuals, or as a whole family group.

about me
This company was named after my often yelled statement of “I am not a robot”. I have ADHD myself, and after years of trying various methods of self-improvement, I decided to embrace the real/unmasked me. As a part of this journey, I decided to retrain as a coach in 2023 in a quest to be more hands-on in helping others to live happier, less stressful, more authentic lives. By the end of 2024 I hope to be fully ADDCA (AACC) and PAAC certified.
My background before this was in local government, and in the charity and voluntary sector where I have worked in project management, business development, community development and consultancy roles since 2000.
I am still involved in communities, and my passions include children & young people, empowering people, diversity (including neurodiversity) and the environment. I find it difficult to do nothing, and I have numerous loves and hobbies, depending on which day of the week you ask me :)
