About Me
Hi, I’m Clive—a certified ADHD Coach working online and in person in Bristol, UK.
WHO I WORK WITH
I support smart, thoughtful, and self-aware adults with ADHD who often find themselves stuck, overwhelmed and frustrated. I provide a safe, non-judgemental space to unlearn shame, build genuine self-worth, and harness your strengths—moving you out of survival mode and into a life that works for you.
GROUNDED IN LIVED EXPERIENCE & CONNECTION
My coaching combines specialist training with a wealth of professional experience and lived insight. I know first-hand how hidden, unsupported ADHD can impact mental health, self-esteem, relationships, and careers. For a long time, I lived in cycles of burnout, mental health crises and substance abuse. Life transformed for me when I stopped fighting my brain, got support from people who understood and started to embrace my neurodivergence. This drives me to help others find their way forward - you don’t have to navigate life with ADHD alone.
INSIDE-OUT COACHING
Rather than prescribing organisational strategies and productivity hacks, we will work from the inside out. By addressing the internal - emotional overwhelm, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), perfectionism, and imposter syndrome - you can establish the healthier inner experience needed to create personalised, practical, sustainable systems that fit your unique brain.
WHAT CHANGES
*Grounded & present: Start to slow down, pause and quieten inner noise. Reduce impulsivity, rumination and overwhelm.
*Authentic living: Let go of shame and unmask safely. Align with your values, embrace imperfection and establish clear boundaries.
*Deeper self-awareness, self-acceptance & mindset shifts: Understand ADHD and your unique wiring. Reflect and gain clarity on your experiences. Replace self-criticism with self-compassion.
*Supported Executive Function & personalised systems: Develop bespoke structures, systems and routines that work for you and lessen the burden on your executive functioning.
MY APPROACH
Clients have valued my down-to-earth, empathetic approach, grounded in kindness, curiosity, humour, and perspective. Blending coaching, mindfulness, and psychoeducation, sessions are strengths-led, trauma-informed, and tailored entirely to your needs and goals.
QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE
*ICF-Accredited ADHD Coaching Certification (designed and delivered by neurodivergent professionals)
*Level 3 Diploma in Counselling Skills
*15+ years of experience across the health, disability, and charity sectors—supporting people to identify their needs and work through complex life challenges.
