My goal in coaching people who have ADD is to provide structure for the energy, ideas, vision and creativity you bring to the world. We will assess what is going right for you, what your challenges are, and what your vision is for yourself. We will also identify what your guiding values are in your life. Building internal limits rather than relying on external limits is important in focusing your life and getting what you want out of yourself. We will address all areas of your life, work, relationships, spirituality, health, finances, creative, intellectual, and other life issues. We will develop tools and systems that work for you, in your life. I will coach you on how to stay focused and “on-track.” Through developing boundaries and balance in your life, you will experience the life you want.

Focus: keep clear your goals, and tasks to get you to where you want to be
Strategize: brain-storm, problem-solve, mind map options

Organize and sort: identify systems, patterns, and work that is unnecessary
Identify what’s working: identify strengths to work through challenges

Questions for you to think about
Are you living your “dream”?
Do you feel in charge of your life?

Are there things you think you would like to accomplish, but you do not know where to begin?

Information about Julieann
I have been counseling adults and adolescents with attention deficit disorder for over fifteen years in a variety of settings. I am a clinical social worker and have a license in the State of Colorado. I have a master’s degree in social work and I am certified as an addictions counselor at the state and national level, and have completed extensive post graduate work. Coaching is an opportunity to help you move to the next level (doing your life differently) after you have completed therapy or while you are working in therapy. I have the professional and practical skills to help you with the challenges you face as a person with ADD. As an adult with ADHD myself, I am able to understand the internal experience that accompanies Attentions Deficit Disorder. I have been effective in developing my own strategies, systems and “containers” that work, and help clients find strategies that work for you, in your life. I view my own strengths and challenges that I have faced to be an asset and a gift!
