Distinguishing ADHD Coaching
A course just for experienced coaches seeking ADHD-specific learning.
Learn What’s Different in the ADHD Coaching Relationship
ADHD coaching is a calling, a profession, and a constellation of skills that distinguishes it from other client-focused models. For more conventionally trained coaches it can be challenging to understand the subtle differences that distinguish ADHD coaching.
Join ADHD coaching pioneer, Cameron Gott, in an introduction to this distinctive method specifically designed for the experienced coach who wants to add ADHD to their professional suite of coach offerings.
This newly-developed course is appropriate for trained coaches new to Coach Appraoch Training Institute, whether they are looking for continuing education or seeking one of our ADHD-related Level 2 credentials.
Open to coaches transferring into CAT Institute with at minimum 60+ hours of ICF-accredited training and 100+ client hours, DAC is a prerequisite for many of our other Advanced courses. Coaches with prior ADHD-specific coach training should schedule an appointment with Director of Education, Sara Skillen, to determine fit.
