One size fits none - Explore, learn, understand and implement changes with ADHD
Welcome to ADHDCoached,
Making meaningful change takes courage. I've been where you are, seeking the right guide—and found that transformative growth happens when you choose wisely. While I offer my experience and insight, I encourage you to speak with several coaches. Your journey deserves a partner who can both challenge and support you.
I'm Astrid McGuire, an ICF-accredited ADHD Coach running ADHDCOACHED. Diagnosed a decade ago, I initially dismissed the suggestion of working with an ADHD coach. When I finally did, it transformed my life—helping me navigate a job promotion, solo travel, and completely shift my mindset.
Noticing a gap in representation, I realised no one with my background or goals was working as an ADHD coach. Despite the significant financial investment required, I left my career to pursue proper and in-depth coaching training at Advanced level @ADDCA and @Animas. Now I work with diverse clients, from entry-level professionals to C-level, and many who don't fit these traditional categories.
My perspective shifted dramatically when I began working with clients who typically couldn't access coaching without charitable or corporate support. This experience spans across Europe, beyond just the UK's access-to-work scheme. I now provide significant pro-bono coaching alongside my paid services.
My approach isn't one-size-fits-all—it's about helping people become interdependent by understanding their unique needs, values, and processing styles. I focus on building self-trust and contentment, supporting clients to move forward and thrive. While I can't predict specific outcomes, my clients report profound changes in accountability, motivation, ownership, confidence, and self-belief.
I am currently only offering 1-1 coaching and would ask you to submit a request below to reach me.

“Astrid has a genuine talent for understanding messy ADHD brains, for connecting, for guiding, and for giving people the space to grow. She has helped me to understand myself so much better than I thought possible, helped me to understand how my ADHD fits into my daily struggles and left me with lifelong tools. Astrid has given me the space and helped to change the direction of my life. I achieved or made massive progress toward all of the goals I set at the start of my coaching journey. I’m so glad I made the decision to work with Astrid.” Coachee

“I now feel more confident in my decision-making and realising my true potential. Learning to trust my instincts has been the most valuable lesson during my coaching with Astrid. It’s had such a huge impact on my self-confidence and overall well-being and it wasn’t until I started the coaching sessions that I realised this was my ultimate goal. Astrid was alongside me every step of the way, always listening, empathetic and encouraging.”Coachee

“Helping me to organize my priorities around work and life, as well as helping me outsmart my procrastination! I’m learning to love myself as I am, and I’m learning to be proud of how my brain works rather than ashamed or apologetic for struggles with neurotypical tasks or expectations. I’m not just learning who I am, but I’m feeling empowered to BE who I am. Therapy might help me work on finding myself but coaching with Astrid is helping me to embrace living as myself.”Coachee - Tech professional
