Tory Nicole, Founder, ADHD Works Now
Welcome all Neurodivergents! ADHDworksNow’s purpose: teaching YOU the skills to not just survive, but to thrive.
I’m a Southern California native settled happily by the foggy beaches of Ventura, California. Former elite athlete, current free-ride and enduro racing mountain biker, forever artist/creative, puppy lover. In my coaching career I see time and time again clients struggling to pay for a service that they so desperately needed. I decided it was my calling to make ADHD coaching accessible to all Neurodivergents by setting a HUMAN price point and keeping everything else SIMPLE. Welcome all:)
My background includes a B.A. in Sociology, ICF accreditation, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy training, CALC credential. I am also a Professional Coach in the ACO Directory, and have many years of personal, anecdotal, and professional experience living and working with adult ADHD and ASD. You can trust I am fully equipped to walk beside you regardless of who you are, where you come from or what path you're on.
I have ADHD too!
Living in a body with lots of energy to expend, I spend as much time as possible staying active.
Nature is my unrelenting teacher and most forgiving friend. Nature is home.
When in the fresh air, you'll find me mountain biking, trail running, and practicing yoga. I love my life, but the path I traveled to find joy was rocky at best, soul-sucking at worst. If I had known about ADHD coaching I could have cut that suffering time in half!
My passion is facilitating healthy journeys on the road to balanced lifestyles and encouraging clients to create CHOICE in their world. Working with me, we will utilize ADHD as a lens through which you view life, rather than a disorder you battle.
Together we will explore how to proactively limit the painful, isolating moments having a neurodivergent brain can cause at a rate you can ACTUALLY afford. Yes, you.
Coaching Approach
Our style is what we like to call "real as hell". Process optimization, ownership and transparency are what you can expect in session. Together we will... Commiserate, Collaborate, Create Choice... and regain CONTROL.
Sessions focus heavily on the analysis of intention, expectation, and action. We use principles from DBT, ACT, and Positive Psychology and are constantly evolving in our methods alongside the latest research for neurodivergent brains.
Where you are today is not as good as it gets, but the only way to make it better is to get real with yourself. Let's start creating YOUR sustainable change together!
