FAQ

What is coaching?
Coaching is like having a dedicated accountability buddy, a mentor, someone trained to listen to you and understand how to guide you. What it is not is a nutritionist, therapist, psychiatrist, or a counselor. I may have a year of training, but the training is different. I can give you suggestions for diet and exercise but no prescription or real evaluation of your nutritional health. I cannot diagnose you. However, if you know you are neurodivergent I do have the skills to understand how to guide you.

I don't have ADHD, but still want your help. Can I still work with you?
Reach out and let us see if we are a good fit. Just because you don’t have ADHD doesn’t mean you don’t also struggle with emotional dysregulation. Let’s see what you need.

Do you do group sessions?

-
Do you do couples coaching?
I am not a counselor or a therapist, so I do recommend that you see a different professional for that. I can help guide you individually on how to follow through with the steps to improvement in your life and relationships.
-
Will you give me step-by-step plans?
I recognize my clients intuitive ability to know what they need. Sometimes you just were never asked to or had the time to sit and think of what you actually need. I will be there to guide you to what you truly want, no matter how long it takes to find it. Sometimes you have always known, but you have no idea how to realistically achieve it. I will be there to help guide you into finding workable systems that are achievable and maintainable.

Do you only accept clients from Japan?
I accept clients from all over the world! As long as our schedules match, I am glad to work with you. My only requirement is that you can speak English. I speak English and Japanese, but worry about being lost in translation. As long as we can do the session in half English and half Japanese, that is OK too! Other than that, I apologize that I don’t speak more languages.

What is the most common feedback from your clients?
I have often been told that they like how I accept them no matter what without judgement during each session. It doesn’t matter if they didn’t do their action step homework. I am there to encourage them to succeed not to shame them into effort. Shame will not create consistent systems for your growth, only acceptance and celebration will.
