Best ADHD Coaching & Therapy Options (Non-Medication)
Therapy Options
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- ADAA's therapist finder (adaa.org) - find specialists in ADHD-focused CBT
- Dr. Russell Barkley's structured approach - widely respected framework many therapists use
- CBT is the most research-backed non-medication intervention for ADHD
ADHD Coaching Services
ADHD Coaches Organization (ACO) - find certified coaches at adhdcoaches.org
Specific coaches/programs worth considering:
- Driven to Distraction coaching - based on Dr. Ned Hallowell's work
- Edge Foundation - specialized coaching, good for students
- JST Coaching - well-regarded for adults
Digital/App-Based Support
- Shimmer - ADHD-specific coaching app, affordable and popular
- Done - combines coaching with support resources
- Inflow - CBT-based app specifically for ADHD, very affordable (~$10/month)
What Actually Works Best
- CBT + coaching combined outperforms either alone
- Look for coaches with PCC or ACC credentials plus ADHD specialization
- CHADD.org has a professional directory
My Top Recommendation
Inflow app for affordable daily support + a licensed CBT therapist for deeper work is a strong combination.
