Smart but Scattered Kids

Today we invite you to participate in the National Survey on ADHD Coaching, conducted by the University of Washington in partnership with the ADHD Coaching Organization.

You can access the survey here:  https://adhdcoachingsurvey.org

The purpose of this survey is to amplify the experiences and viewpoints of ADHD Coaches in the United States, at a time when ADHD Coaching is exponentially on the rise, yet unrecognized by the U.S. healthcare community as a best practice in the care of people with ADHD.

This survey is designed for anyone who self-identifies as a professional who provides Coaching services to individuals with ADHD, ADHD-like traits, or people supporting those with living with ADHD.

The data collected from this survey will accomplish several key objectives:

1. Identify opportunities to support the ADHD Coaching community by highlighting desired areas for training and professional development, strategies to increase client access to care, and resources and techniques that promote effective ADHD Coaching.
2. Summarize the ADHD Coaching community’s top priorities for the field’s growth and advancement.
3. Document the diverse ways in which ADHD Coaching is being delivered by a workforce with unique identities, professional backgrounds, strengths, and lenses through which they view ADHD.
4. Understand the economic impact of the ADHD Coaching industry with consideration of costs to deliver and obtain services.
5. Draw attention to known barriers to the ADHD Coaching field’s growth and the delivery of effective care by ADHD Coaches.

Thank you in advance to the coaches who choose to share their experiences in this survey. We hope your answers will equip researchers, policymakers, and coach-serving organizations with the data necessary to build bridges between the ADHD Coaching and healthcare worlds and create a path forward toward recognition of ADHD Coaching as an evidence-based practice in the care of people with ADHD.
