About me
Hi there! I'm Charlotte Dover, ADHD Coach
And late diagnosed ADHDer, knowledge magpie and most importantly, official ADHD cheerleader (unofficially!)
I am an ICF accredited life coach, specialising in supporting late diagnosed (and self diagnosed) ADHD women.
With 38 years of lived experience as an ADHD female, 36 years experience as an undiagnosed ADHDer and 100s hours coaching training and experience to be able to meet you where you are now, and support you to get to where you want to be.
You provided that "sounding board" and non-judgmental voice to my thoughts; giving me a framework to formulate my thinking and permission to think freely without prejudice or preconceptions about possible outcomes.
As a late diagnosed ADHD woman (I was diagnosed when I was 36) I know what a rollercoaster the process can be.
From elation and validation that things suddenly “make sense” and it’s not just that you’re rubbish at life, to the (sometimes crushing) realisation that fundamentally nothing has changed in terms of how you experience life and the things you struggle with.
- Self-Doubt
- Grief
- Anger
- and feelings of “why me”
- AMAZING I’m not broken!
- Self-acceptance
- Self-expression
- And moments of pure Joy!
The very first thing I’ll help you realise is that you’re not broken, stupid or lazy, you just don’t know how to work with your brilliant brain – yet!
I combine practical tools and techniques for executive function improvement, with deeply supportive self belief and self trust coaching to provide a safe and encouraging space for you to uncover, discover and work WITH your ADHD traits.
If you’re looking for an empathetic ear, powerful tools, encouragement and cheerleading, plus a dash of humour as you work through accepting a late diagnosis, understanding how to overcome your ADHD struggles, or navigating a period of change, which can be incredibly destabilising, especially for someone with ADHD, maybe I’m the coach for you.
- You’re not alone
- You’re not broken
- You’re not weird, lazy or stupid
You’re individual, creative and valuable just for being the human being you are.
My values are rooted in joyful imperfection, self-compassion, curiosity and transparency.
This means you’ll always find honesty, openness, courageous conversation and community here in my world.
Why not book a virtual cuppa with me to find out more, no charge, no obligation, just a chat to get to know each other.
