ADHD Coaching for Teens, Parents, and Professionals

Whether you're a teen figuring out how to stay organized, a parent trying to support your child without constant conflict, or a professional managing deadlines and demands—living with ADHD can feel like a constant juggling act.

But ADHD isn’t a failure of effort. It’s a difference in how your brain is wired to focus, plan, regulate, and respond. That’s why you don’t need more pressure or generic advice. You need support that actually works for how you think, feel, and lead.

At Trail Blossom, we provide one-on-one coaching rooted in executive function science, respect for neurodivergence, and a belief in what’s possible. This is a space for strategy, structure, and self-leadership—not shame.

Coaching for Teens

Self-Leadership Starts Here

Teenagers with ADHD often face daily struggles with motivation, planning, emotional regulation, and follow-through. This coaching helps them build executive function skills through a supportive, strengths-based relationship that promotes real growth—not just compliance.


We focus on practical, confidence-building tools that help teens:

  • Manage their time and tasks more effectively

  • Set meaningful goals and break them into manageable steps

  • Navigate academic, social, and emotional stress with more resilience

  • Understand their ADHD and lead themselves with clarity

Whether they’re preparing for high school transitions or launching into college or work, coaching supports their development into capable, empowered young adults.

Coaching for Parents

Structure, Support, and a Stronger Relationship


Parenting a child with ADHD can feel like a constant cycle of confusion, correction, and exhaustion. Coaching helps parents shift from reactivity to intentional leadership, offering tools to create structure at home, communicate with clarity, and support long-term emotional development.

We’ll help you:

  • Build home systems that reduce conflict and increase follow-through

  • Learn coaching-based communication that promotes trust and accountability

  • Respond to emotional intensity with calm and clarity

  • Support your child’s independence while staying connected

 

You don’t have to be perfect—you just need the right support to lead with more confidence and compassion.

Coaching for Professionals

Work Smarter, Lead Better, and Reclaim Your Focus


ADHD in the workplace often shows up as mental clutter, dropped balls, or inconsistent performance, despite deep care and high capability. Professional coaching offers executive function strategies tailored to your workflow and thought process, helping you meet demands without burning out.

You’ll gain tools to:

  • Organize projects, timelines, and priorities

  • Reduce overwhelm and stay on track

  • Build sustainable routines for planning and follow-through

  • Navigate feedback, deadlines, and leadership challenges

 

This is about more than managing your workload—it’s about managing your energy and trusting your ability to deliver.

Coaching for Executives & Entrepreneurs

Executive Function for Visionary Minds


You’re driven, creative, and full of ideas—but your brain doesn’t always stick to the plan. Coaching helps you lead from your strengths while supporting the systems, routines, and decisions that keep your business (and your life) running smoothly.

With executive ADHD coaching, you’ll:

  • Clarify your vision and build systems to execute it

  • Delegate effectively and set up your team for success

  • Stay focused on strategic priorities instead of spiraling in the weeds

  • Navigate transitions and growth phases with resilience

 

This isn’t about fixing you—it’s about giving your fast-moving mind the structure it needs to thrive.

Coaching for People Leaders

Lead Neurodivergent Teams with Confidence


If you’re a manager or team leader with ADHD—or you lead neurodivergent staff—coaching helps you bridge communication gaps, reduce friction, and build inclusive teams that perform. You’ll develop your leadership style while learning how to support others with executive function differences.

Leadership coaching includes:

  • Strategies for coaching instead of correcting

  • Communication tools that build trust and reduce overwhelm

  • Planning and decision frameworks that work with ADHD brains

  • Inclusive practices that benefit everyone on your team

You don’t have to do it all perfectly, but you can lead powerfully when your systems match how you (and your people) actually work.

ADHD in Numbers 

15.5 Million

U.S. Adults Diagnosed

About 6% of the adult population in the United States has a current diagnosis of ADHD. 

Globally 6.76% have symptomatic ADHD which translates to approximately 366 million adults worldwide.

50-70%

Coexisting Issues

Around 50% to 70% of children with ADHD experience coexisting issues such as anxiety, depression, or oppositional behavior (Barkley, 2015), making emotional regulation support critical.

30%

Developmental Lag

Research shows that children with ADHD experience delays in executive functions like organization, planning, and impulse control equivalent to a 30% developmental lag compared to their peers (Barkley, 2015).
(Example: a 10-year-old with ADHD might have executive skills more typical of a 7-year-old.)

30–50%

Improvement with Coaching

Meta-analyses show that structured coaching programs lead to an average 30–50% improvement in executive function skills (like task initiation, organization, and follow-through) for students with ADHD, compared to control groups (Field et al., 2019).
