Harold Robert Meyer | The ADD Resource Center
If you’re searching for ADHD coaching that delivers immediate, measurable results, the ADD Resource Center (ADDRC.ORG stands as a pioneering leader in the field. Founded in 1993 by Harold ‘Hal’ Meyer and Susan Karyn Lasky, ADDRC has been transforming lives through specialized coaching for over three decades. Their comprehensive approach addresses productivity, relationships, career development, and quality of life issues specific to ADHD challenges. With Senior Certified AD/HD Coaches and a proven track record, ADDRC offers personalized support that complements medical treatment and therapy, helping you achieve your full potential.
Living with ADHD means navigating unique challenges that traditional approaches don’t always address. While medication and therapy are essential components of ADHD management, you may still struggle with practical day-to-day issues like time management, organization, and maintaining focus on long-term goals.
ADDRC’s coaching fills this crucial gap by providing actionable strategies and accountability systems tailored specifically to your neurobiological needs. When you work with an ADDRC coach, you’re not just getting generic life coaching—you’re accessing expertise developed specifically for ADHD brains. This specialized approach can dramatically improve your productivity, strengthen your relationships, and enhance your overall quality of life, often leading to tangible benefits like career advancement and increased earnings.
When you choose ADDRC, you’re selecting a center that was at the forefront of ADHD recognition. In 1993, when adult ADHD was still debated in medical circles, Harold Meyer and Susan Karyn Lasky founded ADDRC and pioneered the “ADDult coaching movement.” This three-decade history means you benefit from refined strategies and deep understanding that only comes from extensive experience.
ADDRC offers specialized coaching that addresses your unique ADHD challenges:
Child, Adult, Family, and Business Coaching: You’ll receive personalized support for managing ADHD symptoms in your personal and professional life, with options for family members to participate in understanding and supporting your journey.
Time and Project Management: You’ll learn practical systems for planning, prioritizing, and completing tasks without the overwhelming feeling that often accompanies ADHD.
Career Development: You’ll develop strategies for achieving workplace success, including managerial skills and professional growth opportunities that leverage your strengths with ADHD.
Organization Solutions: ADDRC offers on-site organizational assistance, creating systems that work with your ADHD brain rather than against it.
Social Skills Training: You’ll enhance your interpersonal relationships and communication abilities, addressing the social challenges that often accompany ADHD.
Academic Support: If you’re a student or have children with ADHD, you’ll access study skills and organizational strategies designed for academic success.
Your coaching experience follows a structured yet flexible approach. Sessions typically last 50 minutes and can occur in-person or via phone, depending on your preferences and location. You’ll meet weekly with your coach, receive homework assignments to practice new skills, and participate in brief check-ins to maintain momentum.
The collaborative process focuses on developing your self-awareness, building effective systems, and creating strategies that work specifically for your ADHD brain. Many clients start with specific goals and continue coaching for several months, often returning when new challenges arise.
From your first session, you’ll notice changes in how you approach daily challenges. Dr. Edward Hallowell notes that ADDRC coaching helps clients “channel their ideas productively and stay with concepts until fruition.”
You’ll develop new patterns that replace old, ineffective habits. Your coach will help you understand ADHD’s impact on your life, reframe problems as opportunities, and create accountability systems that reduce guilt and regret.
Clients consistently report living more organized, productive, and stress-free lives. You’ll experience reduced frustration and anxiety while gaining greater self-respect and clarity of purpose.
When you work with ADDRC, you’re assured of receiving coaching from highly qualified professionals. Many coaches hold the Senior Certified AD/HD Coach (SCAC) designation, requiring:
This rigorous certification process ensures your coach has comprehensive knowledge of ADHD and related conditions like Executive Functioning Disorders and Learning Disabilities.
ADDRC coaching represents an investment in your future success. The financial benefits gained often exceed the coaching costs through improved job performance, career advancement, and enhanced productivity. Many clients report receiving larger paychecks due to better business focus and professional skills.
You may be able to deduct coaching expenses as medical or professional costs, and some employers support coaching as part of professional development education. Check first.

“For many people with AD/HD, the desire and ability is there to do great things, but they often find it difficult to channel their ideas in productive and socially correct ways, or to stay with a concept until fruition. Common challenges, such as time management, organization, goal setting, and prioritization, are often issues that medication or therapy do not address, whereas the focus of ADHD coaching is on building skills and taking action. Good coaching definitely helps people to improve their business focus, interpersonal skills and ability to get things done in such a way as to lead a more productive, fulfilling and rewarding life.”

“As with any profession, I would not send a patient to someone who has not attained sufficient training and education in a field. When looking for an ADHD Coach, doing a little research will help you find an ADHD coach who has earned a credential in that profession. General Coach training is a plus but when you find a credentialed ADHD Coach, it signifies that the coach has been through extensive training and has been evaluated for skill, knowledge, ability and expertise.”
