Many adults only learn they have ADHD later in life. Alongside finally understanding yourself comes the waves of grief for all those years that may feel like wasted potential. If only. And that sense of urgency you may have always had, but is now much more pronounced. You feel the passing of time, and now you just want to figure out how to get things done.
The good news? It’s not too late to start living with intention and build systems and strategies that work for you. I’m not here to tell you that ADHD is a superpower. Actually, that’s what I would call ‘fake news’. I’m here to help you discover what works for you naturally, by providing a space where you can reflect, observe yourself, try out strategies, lean into your strengths and creativity, understand what your ‘authentic’ looks like, and help you manage your specific ADHD challenges in a way that makes life feel good.
Hi, I’m Kirsten, an ADHD coach for writers and creatives, academics and late-diagnosed. I am also a professional editor with over 15 years of experience. Originally from Toronto, Canada, I’m now based in Vienna, Austria, and work with clients worldwide. With a background as a writer, editor, and certified ADHD coach, I support neurodivergent creatives in finding focus, finishing projects, and building systems that work with their brains — not against them. Whether you’re in the UK, Europe, North America, or beyond, I offer flexible online sessions that fit your schedule.

I Need an Editor

Whether it’s a manuscript, report, or creative piece, I’ll help you make your work clear, professional, and ready to share— with feedback tailored to your project and goals.

What is ADHD Coaching?
Writing, creating, and living with an ADHD brain can feel like pushing through fog, or worse, like herding cats — especially if you've been diagnosed as an adult and spent years wondering why focus, follow-through, and finishing things feels so hard. The problem isn’t lack of passion or talent. It’s trying to navigate your goals with a brain that’s wired differently — often without the support or strategies that actually work for you.
