PKJ Coaching

The guides

Three long-form answers to the questions adults with ADHD actually type into a search bar. Each one opens with the direct answer, then shows the how — numbered techniques, concrete steps, and where the limits are. They are written from the same material as the journal, pulled into one place so you do not have to assemble it yourself.

Guide 01

Best coaching techniques for adults with ADHD

Nine techniques in the order a nervous system can actually take them — mapping where you brace, extended-exhale breathing, the physiological sigh, vocal toning, orienting, an urgency audit, a micro-regulation toolkit, sequencing body state before strategy, and rebuilding a recovery baseline. Each with a step-by-step how-to.

Guide 02

How to improve focus with ADHD

Focus is a capacity problem before it is a technique problem. Seven changes that give an ADHD brain more attention to spend: sleep debt, open cognitive loops, sensory load, ninety seconds of regulation before the task, the urgency habit, tested in-the-moment interrupts, and how medication and regulation actually stack.

ADHD coaching vs therapy: which do you need?

What each one is licensed to do, the why-versus-what-now test, six real situations and the room each belongs in, what a coaching session actually looks like, what it costs, and the honest case for doing both at once. Including the referral criteria that send someone away from coaching.

Work with Pen 1:1

If you would rather not work this out from a page

Pen takes a small number of 1:1 clients at a time. The way in is a free clarity call — twenty minutes, no card, no pitch deck. You describe what your weeks actually look like, Pen tells you what he would work on first, and if 1:1 is the wrong fit he says so and points you somewhere better. Plenty of these calls end with “keep doing what you’re doing.”

“Working with Pen has been such a valuable experience. He has a way of holding space that makes me feel completely comfortable being honest. This often leads me to notice things I wasn’t paying attention to, and the insights that come out of those moments have helped me move closer to my goals.” S.R. · Coaching Client

Coaching, not treatment. It is not therapy and does not replace medical or psychiatric care. Individual results vary.
