Helping Neurodivergent Adults Understand Their Brains

Through Coaching, Research & Neuroscience

Hi, and thanks for stopping by 😊

I’m Paula — an ADHD Coach, Researcher, and Educator with a background that zig-zags through academia, neuroscience, education, business, leadership, and linguistics across Poland and Australia. I help neurodivergent adults better understand how their brains work, navigate executive functioning challenges, and build lives that feel more sustainable, fulfilling, and aligned with who they are.

I’m currently in the final stages of a Neuroscience PhD at Macquarie University, where my research explores how ADHD affects auditory processing, emotional wellbeing, and real-world functioning. This neuroscience-based perspective strongly informs my coaching approach and helps me translate research into practical, everyday strategies. Alongside my research background, I also hold qualifications in business, education, training, and early childhood. If you’re curious to learn more about my background and experience, feel free to explore the More About Me section 😊

But beyond the research side, I genuinely understand how exhausting ADHD can sometimes feel — the overwhelm, procrastination, self-doubt, emotional intensity, difficulty switching off, or constantly feeling like you’re “behind.” At the same time, I also see the creativity, adaptability, curiosity, humour, and out-of-the-box thinking that often come with neurodivergent brains.

My coaching style is warm, practical, strengths-based, and non-judgmental. I’m naturally talkative, approachable, and easy to connect with, and I aim to create a space where people feel safe, understood, and supported without shame or pressure to be “perfect.”

Alongside one-on-one coaching, I also deliver workshops and presentations for schools, businesses, and individuals, translating ADHD and neuroscience research into accessible and practical knowledge.

I’m particularly interested in ADHD and mental health, especially the relationship between attention, anxiety, emotional regulation, sensory overwhelm, and everyday functioning. I also care deeply about under-recognised ADHD presentations, especially in women, and about helping people work with their brains rather than constantly against them.

Outside of coaching and research, I have a personal interest in adolescent development and the many factors that shape human behaviour, emotions, identity, and wellbeing.

I love connecting with people, exchanging ideas, and working on meaningful projects that create positive change. If you feel that my approach resonates with you, feel free to reach out via email, LinkedIn, or the booking link below 😊
