ADHD Coaching & Mentoring Across the East Midlands
Practical ADHD support for adults and students in Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, and across the East Midlands. Online sessions, with no travelling required.
Why the East Midlands Needs Better ADHD Support
The East Midlands has some of the longest NHS waiting times for adult ADHD assessment in England. Many adults across the region are waiting years for a diagnosis, and access to specialist ADHD support varies hugely by area.
ADHD mentoring fills that gap. You do not need a diagnosis to start, and you do not need to wait years to begin building strategies that help you manage daily life. Whether you are in Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, or anywhere else in the region, support is available online.

ADHD Resources Across the East Midlands
Navigating ADHD support across the region can be confusing. Here are some useful starting points:
NHS Trusts Providing Adult ADHD Services
Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, and Leicestershire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust all provide adult ADHD assessment services. Waiting times vary significantly, and here is what to do while you wait.
Right to Choose
The Right to Choose allows you to request an NHS-funded assessment with a private provider, which can be significantly faster than the standard NHS pathway.
University Disability Services
Universities across the East Midlands, including University of Derby, University of Nottingham, NTU, University of Leicester, De Montfort University, and Loughborough University, all offer DSA-funded support for students with ADHD.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about ADHD coaching in the East Midlands.
Where in the East Midlands are you based?
I am based in Mickleover, Derby, but all sessions are delivered online via Google Meet. This means I work with clients across the entire East Midlands region, including Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, Northampton, Lincoln, and everywhere in between.
How long are NHS ADHD waiting lists in the East Midlands?
Waits vary considerably across the East Midlands, and I am not going to put a figure on it, because no reliable per-trust average is published and the numbers circulating online are mostly guesswork. What is documented is that adult waits are long and vary enormously by area: the independent NHS England ADHD Taskforce reported adults waiting up to eight years and beyond in some parts of the country. Since coverage differs between Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire, ask your GP or your local service for the current position. While you wait, ADHD mentoring can help you start building practical strategies immediately. The Right to Choose pathway to an NHS-funded independent provider may also be an option, and it is quicker for some people, though not guaranteed to be.
Is online ADHD coaching as effective as in-person?
Research consistently shows that online coaching and mentoring is equally effective as in-person sessions. For many people with ADHD, online sessions are actually preferable: you avoid the executive function demands of travelling, you can be in a familiar environment, and there is less sensory overwhelm.
What qualifications do you have?
I hold a BA in Social Work and have over 7 years of experience as an Advanced Social Work Practitioner. My professional background has given me extensive experience supporting individuals with ADHD and other neurodevelopmental conditions.
Can you help with Access to Work applications?
I can provide guidance on applying for the Access to Work scheme, which can fund workplace coaching for employed adults with ADHD. This government scheme can cover the cost of ADHD coaching sessions as a workplace support measure.
