Hi, I’m Aviva.
I am honored to be one of the select few coaches with the designation PCAC (Professional Certified ADHD Coach), a PCC (Professional Certified Coach) credentialed Life Coach from the International Coaching Federation (ICF), as well as a trained Executive Function Coach. I received my ADHD coach training and Family Coach training from the ADD Coaching Academy (ADDCA), the global leader and pioneer in the specialty arena of ADHD coach training and the only comprehensive ADHD Coach Training Program fully accredited by ICF and PAAC. In addition, I completed specialized coach training enabling me to partner with children, adolescents, parents, and their families impacted by ADHD.
As the mom of three, now young adult children with ADHD and the non-ADHD spouse of a husband with ADHD, I have about as real an understanding of ADHD as possible for a neurotypical. I really get it. I have more than 20 years of insider experience of really living with all the challenges, frustrations, and sometimes the chaos, but also the fun and adventure ADHD can bring to life.
My family were in essence my first clients and were the catalysts that led me on the loving journey to become an ADHD coach. I began my training on a quest to gain a better understanding of ADHD and help my family. To my surprise, along the way I also found an inspiring career for myself. Honestly, sometimes I feel a bit left out that I’m not part of the ADHD tribe, but I also know that the natural skill set I bring as a neurotypical and now as an expertly trained and experienced coach has provided my family and my clients with the tools to not only successfully navigate their lives but also to thrive.
My motivated clients include professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, high school, college, and grad students, homemakers and parents of children with ADHD from around the world who want to make positive changes in their lives and be the best version of themselves.
Employing a background from positive psychology, a strengths-based approach, health and wellness, along with cutting-edge strategies from the field of neuroscience, I help clients tackle a wide range of issues, including organization, time-management, focus, overwhelm, planning, productivity, emotional regulation, self-esteem, goal achievement, career and academic advancement, life/work balance and wellness. My expertise combined with a warm, encouraging coaching style and remarkable intuition empower my clients to achieve their goals, lead happier, more fulfilling lives and thrive.
I coach clients in person in person in New York and via zoom worldwide.
