Hello! My name is Leslie Morris and welcome to the Thrive with ADHD website. I am happy you have navigated yourself here! Let me tell you a little about my story.

Nearly twenty years ago, I was a Corporate Training manager by day and the single mother of a five-year-old daughter newly diagnosed with ADHD by night. Despite my experience and education with my own diagnosis with ADHD (also at 5 – way back when no one understood it) and the skills I learned on my own during college and career, I felt helpless as to how to help her manage and overcome her challenges in a world way different than when I was in grade school! We muddled through and figured it out for ourselves, and she was able to graduate college with honors.  Along the way, we also found that she was gifted and had Dyslexia.  I felt I had it all together on this ADHD and LD thing until I re-married and along came a son, gifted, ADHD and ASD. The learning process got a lot steeper!

During this time of discovery for our family, I often shared my experiences with ADHD, Learning Disabilities and Autism.  I was asked many times to share my experiences with frazzled parents and even adults who believed they had ADHD but had not been diagnosed.  Then I discovered ADHD Coaching.  I enrolled for more ADHD and Coach training with the International Coach Federation recognized training program at the International ADHD Coach Training Center.  I then began applying specific coaching techniques with my son, and even my adult daughter as she entered the work force, and saw what a positive difference it made in their lives and the overall well-being of our whole family. I knew I wanted to use this approach to help other parents, students and adults overcome their ADHD challenges, feel more confident in their abilities, and experience success.
