Introduction: Currently, I coach adults and professionals with and without ADHD. I work best with those that are ready to commit to change! From the feedback I have received, I hear that I have an intuitive understanding with the obstacles that my clients face, I am innovative with the solutions I propose and non judgmental towards the tough decisions that all have to face. My background allows me to consult for those that need behavioral and executive skills. Because I was diagnosed with ADD when I was in the third grade, I have had the opportunity to establish a rare perspective of its many challenges and the unique ADD learning process. With the help of tutors, coaches and mentors, I have learned to educate and advocate for myself. Throughout my educational experience and career, I have had the opportunity to develop a thorough understanding of the services necessary to support those with ADHD obstacles. I have found that my journey with ADD is always beginning and that I must always maintain positive momentum. I also believe that humor can create positive learning experiences and believe in the foundations of positive psychology. We learn best when we are running towards our goals rather than away from the consequences. I like that I am able to reach out to a variety of people every day and create a positive space where the client can reflect and find resources and growth. I get to create lasting connections and help people discover, develop and dive in to their dreams. As I have said, I believe that humor is a necessary cornerstone for resilience, stress relief and awareness. My passion for serving others in as appearant as the hair on my head, and the lack there of;)

My ADD coaching began with Evan In October of 2014. I run a full time, or shall I say overtime, Real Estate business. I have 3 children and my husband travels for work. I knew there was a better way to handle parenting at home, and tools to have better results with the kids. I just absolutely did not know how to do it! I felt helpless overwhelmed and resorted to all the old school techniques that don't always work. My son was diagnosed with ADD in 2013 at the age of 7. Evan help me from emotional reactions to confident parenting. He has taught me skill such as games to play with kids, systems for consequences and rewards, discipline with out the drama. The most amazing part about it is that I have grown. He has taught me to be the one in control versus the kids controlling me and my emotions. What is even better is that I have been able to identify the inconsistencies in my family dynamics, which previously caused the drama and have been able to make corrections because of that guidance. Evan's helped me is so many ways. I am forever grateful for that.

I found Evan’s coaching service to be helpful in my job search. In my situation, I felt completely stuck. Evan helped get me "un-stuck" by asking all the right questions allowing me to come to the conclusion on my own time and in my own way. He watched me go through all the iterations of, "do I want this?" "is this right for me?" "whose interest am I serving here?" until I was finally able to conclude it was time to move on. When it came time to apply, I got excellent coaching on my resume and cover letter as well as my approach to the search. I even felt confident enough to cold-call some employers and eventually took a job with one of those who wasn't advertising an open position but just happened to be looking. Evan has an easy personal communication style. After the initial awkwardness that comes with bearing your fears to someone you barely know, he quickly became a trusted adviser. I have ADHD, and need structure and deadlines to keep me accountable. Sometimes, I bristle at this structure and deadlines and push back. But Evan never let me forget that I am ultimately holding myself accountable to myself. Setting deadlines and creating structure just became a part of our regular discussions. That was immensely helpful! Most importantly, Evan was able to meet me where I am mentally and emotionally until we could walk together toward my goals. You can probably tell that I'm a fan. I would recommend him to friends and colleagues especially those looking to make a change and want to put their best foot forward, be it personal or professionally.

I came to Evan when I had so much pressure to perform at work, that I didn't know if I was going to survive my next project. The stress gave me my first ulcer. After working with Evan for only 4 months, I have learned how my strengths in energy and perseverance can overcome my weaknesses that come from my ADD. Evan helped me acknowledge my true obstacles, create systems to prevent procrastination and found ways to separate the demands of work, from the need to care for myself. I am now more productive and I feel less stress at the same time.

I am so thankful that I found Evan Kirstein. He has been my ADHD coach for the last 5 months, and my life has taken a turn for the much better. Thanks to his deep understanding of ADHD and his understated communication style, I feel like I have regained a strong sense of inner trust and self-reliance, and I am learning to live up to my potential on a daily basis. He was insightful and also knew when to talk and when to listen. We worked on self discipline of practicing music, work and diet. I enjoyed our sessions and have benefited from them.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The pricing is pretty standard, I do have a sliding scale for students and families who qualify.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
To start out, I offer a complimentary consultation so that the client can have a feel for working with a coach and our compatibility together in a coaching environment. If both the Client and myself qualify each other as some we would be able to work with, I then set up a time for an intake and 1st session. This is where the client and I get to know more about each other and define the structure of the coaching practice.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I stay up on the latest developments in my field by reading current periodicals, studying books on the trans-theoretical model, ADHD, and coaching. I have obtained an ICF coaching license. My classes on ADD, positive psychology, ethics, assessments and mindfulness. I also attend conferences such as CHADD and the ACO conference.
