Queer ADHD is a new ADHD coaching practice and resource center for the LGBTQIA+ community with services provided by Sarah Dopp. Our goal is to address the growing need for ADHD support in the queer, nonbinary, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and asexual communities—along with the rest of our alphabet identities. Our practice is starting small, and we’ll ramp up services throughout 2021.
We’re excited to offer Queer ADHD Group Sessions starting May 2021.
These sessions are designed to help queer ADHD folks work with—instead of fight against—the particular needs of our ADHD brains. We’ll combine guided education with powerful coaching questions, peer support, and skill sharing to help you discover a new perspective and an endless supply of clever ideas in a queer community environment.
There’s this thing I do with Internet projects: I create something small and focused to meet my own needs, and then I turn my back for like, one minute and suddenly it has expanded way, way, way beyond my original scope.
Has it already been a month? It feels like it has flown by, but somehow it also feels like I’ve been doing this work for a long time—like it’s a part of me.
I made the decision to protect one day a week—Thursdays—for whatever I want to do in the moment. This turned out to be one of the most powerful gifts I could have given myself.
I started my ADHD coaching program, I started accepting clients, and I launched a website under a new a business name: Queer ADHD. Each one of those is a massive step forward.
After years of struggle, my appearance finally felt like me when I shaved my head in my early twenties.
When I decided it was time to update my website and begin writing publicly again, I immediately ran into a gatekeeper: my younger self.
We are currently accepting new members for our Group Sessions program. Find out more!
We’ve had a number of inquiries from licensed therapists seeking support for their own ADHD, but who have special considerations for confidentiality within the queer community. If this describes you, please get in touch with us to discuss joining a closed group with other therapists.
Our limited seats for individual coaching are currently full. If you’d like to be contacted when we have openings available, please join our Individual Coaching Wait List.
For intense or urgent ADHD challenges, we encourage you to find an ADHD coach with immediate availability. There are ADHD coach directories at The ADD Coach Academy (ADDCA), ADDitude Magazine, and The ADHD Coaches Organization (ACO).
We look forward to working with you!
