I'm Kirsten — a professionally trained and certified ADHD coach, originally from Canada and now based in Vienna, Austria. I work with clients around the world. With over 15 years of experience as an editor, writer, and book coach, I’ve blended my passions for language, creativity, and personal growth into a coaching practice that helps people move forward with clarity and confidence.
Living with ADHD myself, I understand the unique challenges you face. As your coach, I bring both professional expertise and personal experience to help you thrive, whether it's in your daily life, to achieve long-term goals, or in your writing journey.
I work alongside you as your thinking partner, creating a space where your ideas can flow and your goals start to feel achievable. Together, we’ll develop strategies that fit your specific needs and working style. Each session ends with clear, doable steps that allow you to test out strategies, reflect on your emotions and actions, and move you closer to feeling in control.
My coaching focuses a lot on what I call the 3 Cs — Clarity Control and Confidence
My approach goes beyond quick fixes, because there really aren't quick fixes with ADHD. The first step is to accept that you will be managing your ADHD, not fixing it. Because the truth is, you aren't broken, you just need to learn ways of living and doing things that align with your brain. It's possible that for your whole life you have been trying to fit yourself into a way of life that wasn't designed for a neurodivergent brain. Having walked this path myself, I share insights that make ADHD not only more manageable, but exhilarating. We’ll explore techniques that work with your ADHD rather than against it. No more feeling like you're not good enough, that you're banging your head against a wall, or that the process doesn't work.
For writers with ADHD, I offer specialized support to help you get words on the page. Progress over perfectionism. Whether you’re struggling with focus, organizing your thoughts, or negative self-talk, we’ll find ways to make writing feel natural and enjoyable.
I take a holistic approach, looking at the whole picture – your mind, body, and daily life – because ADHD touches everything. We’ll
identify what’s holding you back and build your confidence step by step.
