WHAT IS COACHING SUPERVISION?
Coaching supervision is an opportunity to support your professional and personal development as a coach.
It gives you a space to reflect on your work with the aim of developing your capability and practice as a coach, identifying gaps in your awareness and addressing relevant ethical issues.
But, it’s not just about your coaching skills, it's also about you and your own wellbeing. After all, if you're exhausted, that will impact how you show up for your clients too.
So, supervision is a holistic look at where you could grow or change to maximise the impact for your clients.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Supervision supports any coach at any stage of their coaching development.
Even experienced coaches will feel overwhelmed or uncertain at times.
Sometimes this will be due to the work of helping others, where we deal with ethical issues around boundaries, confidentiality and much more.
We’re purpose driven human beings, so it’s natural that we’ll have doubts when we come across situations with our clients that we haven’t experienced before.
At other times, personal issues or things happening outside of our work environment will affect how we show up as a coach.
None of us are immune from these pressures and supervision gives you the space and the time to process what’s happening.
WHO I WORK WITH
I work with coaches who are working with neurodivergent people whether you are neurodivergent yourself or not.
However, I've found from experience that coaches who aren't neurodivergent bring different issues to supervision than those who are, so to make my supervision as impactful as possible I work with you in a slightly different way.
At present, I offer both individual and group supervision for coaches who are neurodivergent themselves, but I only offer individual supervision sessions for coaches who aren't.
BENEFITS OF SUPERVISION
Supervision will help you to:
Develop your confidence as a coach
You’ve done all the training, got the coaching hours, got your credentials & certifications, but still feel imposter syndrome.
You find yourself thinking you’re not a good enough coach; wondering if you could have done more; or whether you should have done something differently for a client; or wondering if they’re getting the results they want.
Supervision will give you a space to reflect on your work, build your capacity, skills and confidence.
Gain a support network & feel less isolated
Maybe you feel alone or doubt yourself when you have a challenge or ethical dilemma with a client.
Maybe you’re wondering if the client needs more than coaching, whether they're coachable, if you’re the right coach for them or whether they need additional support, or some other kind of ethical dilemma.
Perhaps it’s something that makes you feel uncomfortable and it would just be useful to talk through with someone else outside of the situation.
Coaching can feel lonely, but with supervision you don’t have to sit with those questions or face those challenging client situations alone.
Be neuro-affirming and inclusive
You want to make sure your coaching is neuro-affirming and inclusive.
And that it recognises, understands and works with the full range of the client’s context and lived experience.
What’s the holistic view of this client’s situation, what are their needs and how is that impacting how they show up and engage in the coaching process.
Supervision can help you to identify what's outside of your awareness. What voices, identities or dynamics you might not yet see and how that's impacting how you show up as a coach?
Look after your own wellbeing
Maybe you’re feeling frazzled and wondering if this work is sustainable for you.
Maybe you’re over-giving your time or energy, feeling constrained by the demands of your business and wondering if it’s sustainable or set up in a brain-first way for you.
Perhaps you want to explore how you’re showing up as the coach, how your own neurodivergence may be showing up and how this might impact your clients. Or maybe you’re feeling impacted by something that’s going on for your client.
Supervision can help you reflect on this and make changes that support your own wellbeing.
Develop your capability as a coach
You may simply want to continue developing your practice as a coach.
There’s always something to learn when we work with neurodivergent people because of the many ways it impacts us differently, so we shouldn’t stop learning once we have that certificate or accreditation.
And, we don’t stop needing support to figure out how to be the coach we want to be.
Supervision can help you keep that 'sharp edge' in your coaching by continuously developing your knowledge & skills.

HOW IT WORKS
You choose what you want to talk about in supervision and issues will generally fail into 3 main areas:
Quality, professional standards and Ethics
Here, the focus is on you, the coach, as a practitioner.
The aim is to provide a space for reflection to ensure you are working safely, legally, and at a level of ethical maturity.
This might involve:
- Unpicking challenging issues
- Reviewing boundaries and confidentiality
- Managing risk
- Ensuring compliance with professional codes of conduct
In supervision, this might look like:
- Giving another perspective
- Providing feedback or direction where necessary
Knowledge, skills & good practice
Here, the focus is on improving your capability and confidence. It focuses on you as a coach, exploring your coaching skills and supporting you to be more effective.
This might involve:
- Identifying awareness gaps in your practice
- Pinpointing your learning needs
- Developing new skills & techniques
- Enhancing your existing skills
In supervision, this might look like:
- Sharing knowledge and skills
- Sharing neurodiversity expertise
- Sharing best practice
It might also look like:
- Exploring your unconscious biases and internalised ableism,
- Reflecting on the broader systemic issues that show up in coaching
- Identifying ways to be more inclusive in your practice.
You and your wellbeing
Here, the focus is on you as a person and how your wellbeing may be impacted by your work as a coach.
It’s about supporting your personal development.
This might involve:
- Providing a space to express and explore emotional issues brought up by your work
- processing feelings related to challenging client cases.
- Supporting you if you're feeling overwhelmed or experiencing compassion fatigue
In supervision, this might look like:
- Providing validation, support or guidance when you are facing challenges
- Exploring transference and parallel processes
- Helping you to gauge your energy & capacity to avoid burnout

WHO I AM & WHY I DO THIS
I’m a member of the late diagnosed ADHD club and in recent years I've realised that AuDHD actually better explains my lived experience.
In addition:
- I’m an EMCC accredited coach supervisor with a senior practitioner diploma in coaching supervision. This included more than 150 hours training, assessed practice and evaluated assignments.
- I’m an ICF-accredited mentor coach and a specialist ADHD and neurodiversity coach.
- I have been coaching since 2017 and trained with ADDCA, one of only two fully ICF accredited ADHD coach training providers.
- I’m accredited by the ICF, PAAC and the EMCC and have done more than 5,000 hours of coaching.
I was working as a coach before my own ADHD diagnosis, but, although I’d trained with credible, accredited providers, I didn’t fully connect with the coaching tools and approaches I’d been taught. I’d also been on the receiving end of that kind of coaching myself — and honestly, it hadn’t helped all that much.
So, I learned more, experimented, and slowly shaped my own way of working, following my instincts and what felt right. At the time, I had no idea that what I was developing was actually a neuro-affirming approach to coaching.
Once I received my ADHD diagnosis, everything clicked and the next step felt obvious: training as a specialist ADHD coach. That’s when I realised I was being trained to coach in exactly the way I’d already been coaching — I just hadn’t known why it worked until then.
WHY SUPERVISION IS IMPORTANT FOR COACHES WORKING WITH NEURODIVERGENT PEOPLE
The driving force behind all of my work is to support neurodivergent people in a neuro-affirming way.
To do this we must recognise that the risk of inadvertently doing harm is greater when working with neurodivergent people.
It’s positive that there has been a huge increase in awareness about neurodiversity over the last few years. However, along with that has come a flood of services, products, and new voices promising “magic fix” solutions and social media being swamped with invalidating, mis-information and generalist advice and one-size-fits-all approaches.
I am increasingly concerned about the potential for harm to an already vulnerable client group because the ADHD coaching world is now very crowded and too many have not received specialist accredited neurodiversity coach training.
- We know from research that approx. 50% of people with ADHD have at least one other diagnosable co-occurring condition - autism, OCD, dyslexia, anxiety & depression being the most common.
- We also know that our coaching clients are significantly more likely to experience trauma both in childhood and adulthood (ACEs, coercive control, intimate partner violence etc) than the general population.
- They are also at significantly increased risk of accidental injury, non-accidental injury, substance abuse, eating disorders, chronic stress and other chronic health conditions.
- Our clients have also often had negative experiences when engaging in therapy, coaching in the past - they often report having been met with blank stares when explaining their challenges - so coaching may not feel a safe space for them.
So, it’s important that we are well equipped to:
- Recognise and understand their complexity and what else they might bring to coaching
- Understand how to work with the myriad of ways in which neurodiversity shows up in our clients - one-size doesn’t fit all
- Acknowledge that typical - neuro-normative - approaches don’t work well and can be harmful
- Have a clear understanding of the boundary between coaching and therapy and/or other professional services, stay within the scope of coaching practice and know when to refer onwards
