How Edge Coaching Works

The Edge Coach works as a partner with people to develop a plan to achieve goals they have identified. The coaching relationship empowers them by providing structure, support, and accountability. The clients own the goals and plans because these come from them, not from the coach.

How Edge Coaching Helps

The focused and personalized one-on-one approach used in Edge Coaching helps individuals with:

  • Goal setting
  • Planning and organizing
  • Prioritizing and time management
  • Focusing and perseverance, even in the face of adversity
  • Impulse control
  • Motivation and procrastination
  • Follow-through and task completion

How Do You Match Me with a Coach?

How We Match You With a Coach

Our Coach Matchmaker, based on our conversations with you, identifies three coaches aligned with your preferences. You interview each prospective coach. After all interviews are completed, you talk with the Coach Matchmaker about your experience and decides whether you have found a good match. There are no fees for the coach match process.

Who Are Our Edge Coaches?

Our Edge coaches are International Coaching Federation (ICF) certified and are specifically trained in working with neurodiverse individuals. In addition, they must have at least 2 years prior experience coaching and have coached at least 10 ADHD clients before coming to Edge.
