ADHD coach or therapist: which one do you need?

Coaching is practical, forward-looking support with things like starting tasks and planning your week. Therapy and medical care treat conditions and come from licensed professionals. If you want help with diagnosis, medication or mental health symptoms, start with a doctor or therapist. Many people use both.

Coaching is a good fit when

You know what you want to do and keep getting stuck on starting, returning or choosing what comes next.

Start with a doctor or therapist when

You want a diagnosis, medication advice, or help with anxiety, low mood or trauma. If you are in crisis in the US, call or text 988.

Working with both

Pen can work alongside your doctor or therapist, never instead of one.
