ADHD Clinical Coaching
ADHD Clinical Coaching is a unique service offered at Viewpoint Psychological Services by Libby Wertz, M.A., LPA. This service is available to anyone, children through adults, diagnosed with ADHD or experiencing symptoms of ADHD.
ADHD Clinical Coaching is individually curated to meet the specific ADHD-related goals of each client.
This service also differs from traditional therapy in many ways.
The following information describes the ADHD Clinical Coaching service in more detail:
● Initially, you will commit to one/two 1-hour sessions. Then, you and Libby will collaboratively determine if 1-hour or 30-minute sessions will be more helpful based on your unique coaching goals and progress. Sessions are meant to be flexible and individualized to fit your needs.
● Over the span of a few months, you will likely meet for 3-6 sessions (or 2-8 hours total). You can expect there to be multiple weeks between sessions to provide time to complete tasks between sessions, track behavior, etc.
● This service is $120 per hour (or prorated as $60/30 minutes).
● You and Libby will collaboratively determine one to three goals to work on when you meet. These goals will be specified to your unique symptoms and challenges. Libby will also discuss with you how your strengths can help you achieve these goals.
● You will be accountable for tasks in between sessions to ensure that you are doing what is necessary to work towards your ADHD Clinical Coaching goals and get the most out of the service.
● Individualized ADHD-related services that may be discussed may include, but are not limited to:
○ Academic/work accommodations
○ Individualized ADHD psychoeducation
○ Behavior modification/symptom management
● Medication monitoring is also optional with this service. Although your prescribing physician is responsible for your medication management and prescription, you and Libby can discuss and track change in symptoms, side effects, adherence, how to discuss your medication experience with your prescribing provider, and other aspects of medication usage.

After participating in ADHD Clinical Coaching:
● You will have learned strategies for achieving your coaching goals and how to manage symptoms of ADHD. ● You will receive a summary of services and specialized recommendations. Although ADHD Clinical Coaching is designed to be helpful for each individual client, it is important to note that ADHD is a neurodevelopmental psychological disorder that can persist throughout the lifespan. Therefore, additional symptoms and challenges may also persist throughout life. As such, there may be benefits of participating in additional long-term services, such as traditional therapy, which is also available at Viewpoint, or potential ADHD Clinical Coaching “booster” rounds in the years following participating in this service. |
