Melissa Orlov is one of the foremost authorities on ADHD and relationships in the world today.

Dr. Edward Hallowell, Coauthor of Driven to Distraction and Married to Distraction

This overview course introduces ADHD coaches to the key issues ADHD clients  face in a difficult marriage.

After taking the course, coaches can expect to be more sensitive to the pressures difficult marriages place on their clients, the common marital “mistakes” that their clients may unintentionally make, and how to help clients develop skills that will lessen pressures at home more quickly.

Rather than be exhaustive in nature, the course is intended to provide a strong framework to help coaches make better recommendations when a client is faced with significant pressure at home.

PRESS RELEASE

August 12, 2010

Framing the ADHD Experience Before One-on-One Coaching Begins:

designed by ACO professional coach, Joyce Kubik, especially for the ACO’s ADHD Coach Continuing Education (ACCE)

This program will teach participants how to create a solid framework with their ADHD clients to strengthen their client-coach relationships for more successful coaching experiences.

“This course will be interesting to any coach, but especially compelling for those interested in ADHD,” said Ms. Kubik. “I want to support coaches toward greater success with their ADHD clients and so I am offering each participant a copy of my KORS (Kubik Outcome Rating Scale) instrument at no additional cost.”

The International Coach Federation (ICF), the accrediting and credentialing body for the life coach profession, has approved the course for 12 hours of continuing education credit used towards coaching certification or recertification.

Beginning Tuesday, August 31, 2010
for 6 weeks.
12:00-2:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Purpose:

• To create a common ground for all coaches to begin with when working with ADHD clients
• To place the coach through a mock version of the actual class while learning how to implement the process

How does this workshop differ from other ADHD Coaching workshops?

This workshop duplicates the ADHD coaching method that has changed the lives of so many. It is the same approach and method used in the successful groundbreaking study the Efficacy of ADHD Coaching for Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder (Kubik, JAD, 03/10).

Workshop overview

The goal of the workshop is for each attendee to build a strong self-awareness of how ADHD affects their client personally while simultaneously learning to implement strategies and structures into daily life.
Attendees will be asked to put aside personal planners except work-related schedulers just as clients will be asked to do. The planning journal supplied is used for notes, project-planning skills, and provides a hands-on experience of the skills they will be teaching. Attendees will share their thoughts and observations each week. This allows attendees time to interact and share successes or difficulties.

What coaches are saying about the training

• [Joyce Kubik] had a good rationale for the approach and materials she uses. She supported the information with appropriate anecdotes.
• Clearly, the information presented in the series comes from personal experience, masterful coaching, and careful and detailed research.
