Coaching Formulation Session
A 90‑minute psychologically informed assessment session for autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD adults
About the Session
The Coaching Formulation Session is the essential first step before beginning any of my 12‑week programmes. This 90‑minute session provides a structured, compassionate, and psychologically informed space to explore your wellbeing landscape in depth. It allows us to understand the patterns, needs, and experiences that shape your day‑to‑day life, and to create a personalised roadmap for your coaching journey.
This session is not therapy, not a clinical assessment, and not a diagnostic process. It is a coaching psychology formulation, which means it is a collaborative, non‑clinical way of understanding your experiences, strengths, challenges, and context so that we can tailor your coaching programme effectively. This work sits fully within the scope of coaching psychology and neurodiversity‑affirming coaching practice.
What We Explore
During the session, we work together to explore key areas of your internal and external world, including:
- sensory profile and sensory sensitivities
- emotional regulation patterns and triggers
- burnout cycles and energy rhythms
- masking, identity, and internalised expectations
- executive functioning strengths and challenges
- communication preferences and relational needs
- values, motivations, and what matters most to you
- strengths, interests, and natural patterns of engagement
- environmental, social, and occupational factors affecting wellbeing
This process is gentle, collaborative, and paced around your comfort. There is no pressure to share anything you are not ready to explore.
What You Receive
After the session, you will receive a written summary of the session and a full coaching formulation. This document outlines the key themes we identified and maps out your next suggested stages, including which coaching pathway is likely to be the most supportive for you.
Your formulation summary may include:
- a clear understanding of your AuDHD profile
- identified strengths and protective factors
- areas of challenge and contributing factors
- sensory and emotional regulation insights
- executive functioning considerations
- initial recommendations for support
- a suggested coaching pathway
This summary is designed to help you feel seen, understood, and grounded in your own story.
Why This Session Matters
The formulation session ensures that your coaching journey is not generic or pre‑structured. Instead, it becomes a tailored, psychologically informed process that reflects your lived experience, your neurotype, and your capacity.
This approach:
- reduces overwhelm
- increases clarity
- builds safety and trust
- ensures your programme is personalised
- supports sustainable change
- honours your unique needs and rhythms
It also allows you to make an informed decision about which programme is right for you.
What Happens Next
After your formulation session, we will discuss the coaching pathways available to you. Most clients choose to begin one of the following:
- The AuDHD Wellbeing Project (12 weeks)
- Executive Functioning Programme (12 weeks)
- Access to Work Programme (12 weeks)
You are welcome to take time to reflect before deciding. There is no pressure to commit immediately.
