Who is Carrie?
 I
am among the lucky few who were born organized, but
fate had it that I’d be surrounded by family members
and friends whose lives were seriously affected by various
degrees of ADHD. I’ve been helping these people
since I can remember, and over time have strived to
absorb all the information I could about ADHD and ways
of dealing with it.
I’ve discovered many common traits of people
with ADHD, many strategies for dealing with problems,
and many innovative ways of implementing solutions!
As a Coach, my goal is to be the best coach out there
— to use my expertise to help those around me
achieve their goals by overcoming their difficulties
and leveraging the abilities presented by ADHD.
In practice, this means developing a strong working
relationship with my clients, gaining an understanding
of their experiences, strengths and weaknesses, and
helping them find practical solutions to the challenges
they face.
My Philosophy
I believe that we each are unique and have incredible
gifts that are just a natural and wonderful part of
what makes us who we are. Yet, despite having natural
talents and strengths many of us tend to focus our attention
and efforts trying to bolster up our weaknesses instead
of strengthening our strengths.
By focusing on your strengths we can find ways for
you to compensate for the things that you don’t
do as well. By focusing on your strengths we allow you
to soar and not get bogged down in the little things
that don’t matter.
Focusing on your strengths won’t make you perfect,
won’t make ADHD disappear, but it will make you
into happier person. You will never be perfect, but
hey, neither will anyone else!
Associations
I am an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) through the
International Coaching Federation and active member
in a number of organizations that provide information
and services related to ADHD, Organizing, and coaching
services.
