COACHING Is Practical, Immediately Applicable & Results-Oriented
Benefits of Coaching
- Live a more productive, organized, stress and clutter-free life.
- Reduce frustration and anxiety.
- Target meaningful career and life goals; set realistic strategies to achieve them.
- Increase your ability to prioritize, self-motivate and complete projects.
- Improve relationships.
- Enhance self-respect and clarity of purpose.
- Recognize your unique potential.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The benefits of Coaching are usually immediate and measurable, beginning with the first session. However, Coaching is not a substitute for appropriate medical treatment; nor is it a replacement for psychotherapy. In fact, the majority of our Coaching clients are referred by their doctors or therapists.
We Work On Your Issues- NOT Your Label
Our Coaching benefits most people, but it is particularly helpful for coping with the subtle challenges of many neurobiological problems, including: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD) Executive Functioning Disorders, Chronic Disorganization, Learning Disabilities, Difficulties with Motivation, Arousal or Sustained Effort, Chronic Underachievement, etc.
Our experienced ADDRC Coaches have a first-hand and comprehensive knowledge of these "hidden disabilities." So whether you have an "official" diagnosis, or just experience some of the myriad difficulties associated with AD/HD and related disorders, our goal is to give you the tools and know-how to succeed:
- Compensatory Strategies
- Education & Advocacy
- Structure & Accountability
- Motivation & Support
- Awareness & Acceptance

Your ADDRC Coach helps you to develop specific and realistic ways to implement change in your life. Our focus is on success, as you begin to:
- Utilize new strategies - One definition of insanity is "doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result."
- Better understand the impact of AD/HD - What it is, and isn't; what can be changed, what should be accommodated - and how.
- Reframe the problems - Consider issues from new perspectives, and so remove the unproductive albatross of guilt and regret.
- Benefit from the unique support and accountability of the Coaching relationship.
"My Coach helped me find the courage to let go of the thinking that was limiting my options, and of the clutter that was limiting my life." -M.G., NYC
Our ADDRC Coaching sessions are typically 50 minutes, in-person or via phone, on a weekly basis. We encourage brief phone and email "check-ins" between sessions. Homework is utilized to help clarify recommended strategies, implement new directions and maximize time spent in-session. Coaching can be a one-meeting consult, but usually continues for several months. Many clients return as new issues arise in their lives.
We've been at the forefront of the movement to educate the public and professionals about ADD/ADHD. We recognized this wasn't just a childhood issue, when the very existence of adult ADD was still in debate. We were pioneers in the early ADDult coaching movement, specializing in the unique challenges of adults with this disorder. We've continued to help inform and demystify, support and advocate. We have utilized the most effective coaching strategies and developed new techniques. The A.D.D. Resource Center has a proven track record of helping our clients succeed.

OUR ORIGINS:
Harold 'Hal' Meyer, MBA and Susan Lasky, MA opened The A.D.D. Resource Center in 1993. The Resource Center was a natural outgrowth of work they had begun in 1989, as the founders and co-chairs of the New York City chapter of CHADD (Children & Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder), the national volunteer-based organization. The solutions-focused Resource Center was designed to meet the growing need for individualized education, advocacy and specific skills training. Our Programs emphasize 'real-world' skills, fusing our extensive business experience (as corporate execs, consultants and entrepreneurs) with our personal and professional understanding of AD/HD. The Center's Instructors, Coaches and Consultants are carefully selected for their expertise, compassion, experience and communications skills.
OUR PROGRAMS INCLUDE:
Adult, Adolescent & Family Coaching - Parenting Classes - Time, Project & Paper Management - On-Site Organization - Career Development & Managerial Skills - Socialization Skills Training - Study & Organizational Skills - Case Management - Programs for Corporations & Educators & More!
FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
Coaching is considered educational in nature, and is not usually covered by medical insurance. Check with your accountant if you qualify to take Coaching as either a medical or professional deduction on your income tax. Some employers will support Coaching as professional education.
Coaching is an investment in yourself: The payback is a better quality of life, and possibly a larger paycheck and more satisfying relationships, plus increased energy, free time and self-respect.
