Introductory Calls - Empower ADHD

I’m Yvonne, an ADDCA trained Adhd coach with a compassionate and caring approach, deeply influenced by my early studies in psychology, a long professional career in consumer behaviour, running a busy branding agency.  I’ve lived the thrills and spills of Adhd, personally and professionally, and as a specialist Adhd Life Coach I am passionate about working with fellow Adher’s  who are eager for a new perspective.

With greater self awareness, acceptance and a damn good tool box, doing you doesn’t have to be so hard.  Our coaching journey together is the step to start seeing yourself through a new lens and a world of new possibilities.

Marks initial focus is helping people who live with ADHD find jobs or help them with issues they are having within employment.  Mark works 4 days a week for South London and Maudsley Hospital as a Job Coach working closely with therapists to help people with mental health issues overcome their employment issues.  Mark has found great reward in working with employed and unemployed ADHD brains helping them navigate the challenges of ADHD in the work place together. 

It was not until later in life, when Mark was diagnosed with ADHD, that he realised his innovative and "outside-the-box" approach was actually ADHD-friendly ways of achieving desired results.

To be successful in finding employment, Mark believes in the importance of standing out from the crowd. This approach has enabled the individuals who have followed his process to achieve their goals. It is the key reason for Mark's successful career, helping hundreds of people from various backgrounds and at different stages of their careers achieve their set goals. “You get out, what you put in”

Sophie is a passionate and enthusiastic coach at The ADHD Advocate. She specialises in coaching for students, as an ADHD coach for DSA Education and through the High School Success Programme, launched by the ADHD Advocate.

Trained with ADDCA and drawing on more than a decade of strategic experience across sports media, private equity, and digital publishing, she helps clients establish sustainable structures for focus, productivity, and emotional regulation. With a background as a junior competitive tennis player and a national-level multi-sport athlete, Charlotte brings a high-performance mindset to her coaching, empowering clients to harness their strengths, improve consistency, and create meaningful, lasting change.

His special interest is how the nervous system plays such a crucial role in the management of ADHD and other neurodifferences and how this impacts perceptions of safety in places of work and learning. Other areas connected with the NS include managing burnout, modifying learning or work environments for sensitive nervous systems and different methods of regulating the nervous system.

Her coaching focuses on the real-world impact of ADHD — from executive dysfunction and emotional regulation to burnout, overwhelm, and inconsistent performance. Rather than offering rigid systems, Georgie helps clients build flexible, personalised ways of working that support focus, energy, and follow-through in demanding professional and personal environments.

Georgie’s approach is both practical and psychologically informed. She blends evidence-based coaching tools with nervous system awareness, helping clients understand why they operate the way they do — and how to shift it sustainably. Her work is particularly impactful for those who are capable, driven, and outwardly successful, but internally struggling to maintain consistency or self-trust.

Alongside her professional training, Georgie’s experience of breast cancer has shaped her perspective on resilience, identity, and what it truly means to function well under pressure. This allows her to hold space for complexity while keeping clients focused on forward movement.  During treatment, Georgie lent heavily on breathwork as a tool to regulate her nervous system and will qualify as a functional breathwork practitioner in June 2026. 

Her mission is to help people think clearly, work effectively, and perform at their highest level — without burnout, shame, or self-sabotage.

I grew up in Jersey and, for most of my life, I had absolutely no idea I had ADHD.

Like many people, I thought ADHD looked a certain way. I did well in school, I wasn't disruptive, and from the outside things often seemed fine. What people didn't see was how much energy it took to keep everything together. I was constantly overthinking, second-guessing myself, pushing through exhaustion, and wondering why everyday life seemed so much harder for me than it appeared to be for everyone else.

For years, I genuinely believed these struggles were personal flaws. I thought I needed to try harder, be more organised, be less sensitive, be more disciplined. No matter how much effort I put in, I always felt as though I was falling short.

Everything changed when I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult in 2023.

Receiving a diagnosis brought relief, but it was coaching that truly transformed my life. For the first time, I stopped trying to force myself to work against my brain and started learning how to work with it. Coaching helped me understand my strengths, challenge years of negative self-beliefs, and build strategies that actually made sense for me.

More importantly, it helped me realise that I wasn't broken.

That experience is what led me to train as an ADHD coach myself.

I am currently completing my ADDCA certification and working towards building my coaching hours. My goal is to create the kind of space I wish I'd had years ago, somewhere people can show up exactly as they are, without judgement, shame, or pressure to be anyone else.

I have a particular passion for supporting adults who have been recently diagnosed, people experiencing burnout, perfectionism, self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, or anyone who feels they've spent years masking and trying to fit into a version of success that was never designed for them.

I bring warmth, compassion, energy, and (if I do say so myself) top-notch comedy to sessions, but most importantly, my coaching is centred around helping you better understand yourself, recognise your strengths, and build a life that feels more manageable, meaningful, and genuinely yours.

Outside of coaching, you'll usually find me working on some kind of creative project. I've always loved making things and spent years exploring everything from painting and sewing to crocheting and rug making. After moving from Jersey to London to study acting at ArtsEd, I worked across several industries before discovering ADHD coaching. Having experienced first hand the impact coaching can have, I knew I wanted to help others find the same understanding, confidence and sense of possibility that it gave me.

Because if there's one thing I've learned, it's that understanding yourself changes everything.

Testimonials:

“It shifted my perspective in a way I hadn’t felt in a while, being so busy in my life. What stood out most was that I followed through on what I said out loud in the session. It didn’t take effort, it just felt clear and natural. That, for me, says a lot about the thinking space you created.”
