Understand Your Neurodivergent Coaching Needs

Where do you need the most support?

What you'll learn

Seven areas. Real clarity. A personalised starting point.

Russell Barkley — one of the world's leading researchers on ADHD and executive function — identified seven core executive functions that govern how we plan, act, and regulate ourselves. This assessment scores you across all seven, so you leave knowing exactly where your brain is working against you — and what to do about it.

Discover Your Coaching Needs

Our 7 core executive functions:

Self-awareness

Your ability to observe yourself in real time — to notice your own thoughts, behaviours, and patterns as they’re happening.

Inhibition

Your ability to pause before acting — to stop, think, and choose a response rather than react automatically.

Non-Verbal Working Memory

Your ability to hold images, sequences, and spatial information in mind while using them — the mental sketchpad that keeps track of what you’re doing and where you are in a process.

Verbal Working Memory

Your ability to hold words, instructions, and internal speech in mind — the inner voice that talks you through what you’re doing and why.

Emotional Regulation

Your ability to manage the intensity and duration of emotional responses — not to suppress them, but to keep them from taking over.

Self-Motivation

Your ability to generate drive from within — to keep going on tasks that aren’t immediately rewarding, stimulating, or urgent.

Planning and Organisation

Your ability to map out the steps needed to reach a goal, manage time, and keep track of what needs to happen when.

About

I'm Nick, a neurodiversity coach based in Wales. I've spent over nine years working exclusively with neurodivergent adults — privately and as a delivery partner for the DWP's Access to Work scheme and the Ministry of Justice.

My approach is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) and Russell Barkley's executive function model — because understanding why your brain works the way it does is the foundation for building something that actually sticks.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed the coaching sessions I had with Nick. Reviewing our sessions during the 6 months of coaching, I could see my thought patterns, my struggles and everything else more clearly. I went from wondering how to do everything to narrowing down to what I wanted to really focus on and reduce my overwhelm.  Testimony to how much I've  shifted has resulted in me setting up a low-cost therapy service which I'd only dreamed about doing before and wasn't in immediate plans at the start of coaching. Thank you, Nick!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The coaching has been life changing for me. I was very sceptical at first as I’d never heard of it and wasn’t sure what it would entail but Nick is so reassuring and knowledgeable. He asked what I would like to work on and set targets and kept track of my progress. The support has been great and I spread the sessions out so I could work on my targets. 10/10

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Nick over the past few months has been an incredibly positive experience. His coaching has made a meaningful difference in several areas of my life. He is friendly, understanding, and easy to work with. Nick is an expert in ACT and has a deep understanding of practical systems that he has provided me with to help manage everyday challenges. He has also shared a wide range of resources via his coaching portal, so support and guidance is available even outside of our live sessions. When things crop up, as they inevitably do in everyday life and I’ve needed additional help, he has been readily available through the portal to answer questions or offer advice on an ad hoc basis. That level of ongoing support has truly been a game changer for me. I have enjoyed my coaching journey with Nick so far, and I am looking forward to seeing what can be achieved going forward. If you’re considering taking the leap into coaching, I would highly recommend Nick as the person to start your journey with.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nick provided a safe, non-judgmental space to unmask and explore my authentic self. Their lived experience meant I didn't have to explain how my brain works—they already 'got' it. I’ve moved from wanting to 'be normal' to optimistically looking forward to a future built on my actual needs. With metta, 🙏

So That People can access this incredible resource, for those who have been struggling being understood  With their neurodivergency and past trauma. So grateful and appreciated the professional understanding . From Nick which came in an  crisis point in my life. The time allocated was used so well. I was amazed by how accurately my struggle with coping was honed In on. And given the exact tools to support my future growth. Being so clearly seen was a massive relief. Didn't have to spend lots of time explaining as usual. Felt like the most suitable life coaching. Would of loved longer. However There are many people who would benefit from this Opportunity with working with Nick. My  Substance issue's which were a way of trying to Cope on a day to day level. Have now really changed. Its been Definitely a life boat arriving and a hand up into the boat, when I needed it the most....I know that  I can face Difficult feelings and situation that come up in a much better way because of the sessions from this invaluable resource.
