Coaching at Brain in Hand

Since 2023, our team has delivered over 36,000 hours of one-to-one coaching, building deep expertise and making us a leader in the field.

Our Brain in Hand coaches specialise in working with neurodivergent people (autistic, ADHD, anxiety, and more).
All coaches are minimum ILM Level 3 certified and aligned with ICF or EMCC standards.

Every coaching session offers tailored guidance and in-the-moment support.
This creates a safe space to try new strategies and reflect, supported by in-app tools that reduce cognitive load.

Unlike other providers, we require a minimum of two years' experience in direct support roles.
Our training is grounded in empirical research and aligned with the ethical codes of professional coaching bodies.

What makes our coaching different?

A blend of people and technology

Our coaching combines skilled human support with robust digital tools. This means insight from coaching sessions turns into real-world action, supported by reminders, structure, and in-the-moment strategies.

Designed for neurodivergent people

Our coaches specialise in supporting autistic people, people with ADHD, anxiety, and related experiences. Support is neuroaffirming, strength-based, and grounded in lived experience.

Support that continues beyond sessions

Progress doesn’t stop when a session ends. Brain in Hand tools help maintain momentum, reduce cognitive load, and support self-regulation throughout daily life - 24/7.

Consistent and measurable progress

A shared framework ensures consistency and quality, while regular reflection helps users notice what’s working and build sustainable change over time.

Our framework: Reflect → Act → Progress

Brain in Hand coaching is built around a simple, repeatable model of change

This cycle repeats over time, helping people make steady, meaningful progress without pressure or rigidity.

Reflect

Users explore patterns, challenges, strengths, and goals in a safe, supportive space. This builds clarity and readiness for change.

Act

Practical strategies are put into place using Brain in Hand tools - such as prompts, planning aids, and real-time support - helping reduce overwhelm and support follow-through.

Progress

Users reflect on what’s working, adjust strategies, and build independence. Progress is reviewed regularly, creating momentum and confidence.

What progress looks like over time

Many users report positive impact within the first 12 weeks, including:

Reduced anxiety and overwhelm
Improved task initiation and follow-through
Stronger routines and self-awareness
Greater confidence and independence

Your coaching journey

Everyone’s journey is different, but the example below illustrates how Brain in Hand coaching can support meaningful, real-life change over time.

Case Study: Addie’s Coaching Journey

Addie explored key challenges and set meaningful goals. Rest was reframed as a form of regulation, and Brain in Hand tools were introduced to support task prompts and routine planning.
