If you’re someone who’s been thinking about ADHD coaching but unsure how to afford it, you’re not alone. Many people face the same questions: Is there funding available? Am I eligible? Who can help me through the process? The good news is, there is a grant scheme that can help cover the cost of ADHD coaching – and at ADHD Health Clinic, we can guide you every step of the way, including helping you access coaching sessions directly with our own expert coaches.
Why ADHD Coaching Matters – Especially in the Workplace
The challenges in the workplace are often magnified for those with ADHD. Managing multiple tasks, staying organised, meeting deadlines, regulating emotions, and maintaining focus can become daily obstacles, even in jobs where you’re otherwise thriving. This is where ADHD coaching can make a real difference.
An ADHD coach works with you to develop personalised strategies that align with your unique working style. Whether it’s learning how to prioritise, structure your day more effectively, or develop healthier work habits, ADHD coaching provides practical, tailored support that builds both confidence and capability.
But coaching isn’t just about managing symptoms. It’s about learning to advocate for yourself, understanding how your ADHD shows up in your professional life, and setting goals that help you work with your brain – not against it. The result? Better productivity, reduced stress, and more satisfaction in your career. Despite the clear benefits, many people never take that first step because of cost.
The Cost Barrier: A Real Issue for Many
Fees for quality ADHD coaching can often run into hundreds of pounds per month if regular sessions are required. For many people, especially those navigating uncertain employment or already under financial pressure, this is simply too much.
On top of this, the emotional weight of applying for financial support—filling out forms, gathering evidence, and explaining your challenges – can feel paralysing. For adults with ADHD, the very symptoms they want help managing can become obstacles to accessing the support they need. This creates a frustrating cycle: people need coaching to help manage ADHD, but their ADHD makes it harder to get the help that’s available.
Fortunately, there is a solution – and it comes in the form of a government-backed grant: Access to Work.
Accessing Funding Without the Overwhelm
The UK Government’s Access to Work scheme is designed to support individuals with a disability or long-term health condition, including ADHD, so they can succeed in their roles. One of the key ways it does this is by covering the cost of practical support, such as ADHD coaching. The grant doesn’t need to be repaid and, in many cases, individuals don’t need to contribute at all.
While Access to Work is a brilliant scheme, navigating the application process can still feel daunting. That’s why we offer free support to help you apply. You can book a free 30-minute Zoom session with our Access to Work expert, Hollie May, who will guide you through setting up and submitting your application.
Hollie specialises in helping neurodivergent individuals complete the Access to Work process with clarity and confidence. During your session, she’ll explain what’s involved, help you identify the type of support you can request, and assist you in making a strong application.
Crucially, Hollie’s role isn’t just about helping you apply – she’ll also help you secure ADHD coaching sessions with our own experienced coaches at ADHD Health Clinic. That means you’ll benefit from a seamless, joined-up experience, where both your application and your coaching happen under one trusted, expert-led service. You can view our ADHD coaching team here.
Moving Forward with Confidence and Support
Whether you’ve been recently diagnosed or have been living with ADHD for years, accessing ongoing support is vital for long-term wellbeing and workplace success. Coaching provides coping strategies, accountability, encouragement, and a deeper understanding of your own needs and strengths. It’s about empowering you to work smarter, not harder – and to do so in a way that feels authentic and sustainable.
Financial barriers should never be the reason someone goes without support. The Access to Work scheme exists to level the playing field, and with a bit of help, you can get the funding you need to invest in yourself. ADHD coaching shouldn’t be a luxury. With the right guidance, it can be a practical, funded option that helps you thrive – not just at work, but in every area of your life.
If the process of applying feels overwhelming, know that you don’t have to do it alone.
