Coaching Style: I blend a strength-based approach with tools backed by science and experience: drawing on your past success, your character strengths, your natural interests, your innate creative problem-solving skills AND I will suggest tools and strategies, you are the one with autonomy, ultimately deciding what you want to try.
I can help you accomplish more by doing less: figure out your clear priorities and values, and do what matters to you well instead of trying to do everything. I advocate working with your natural energy patterns, helping you set realistic and achievable goals as well as envision different versions of success which leads to a greater sense of accomplishment and increased motivation. I can help you build a sense of positive progress and resiliency by reflecting on what went well and what needs adjustment drawing from the gentle curiosity fostered by mindfulness. I create a safe and judgment-free space, by bringing a gentle curiosity drawn from mindfulness as well as my own lived ADHD experience. Some of the ways my past clients have described my coaching style: are resourceful, empathetic, compassionate, and having an impressive ADHD toolbox.
Some of my unique approaches:
- I bring empathy and actively help you pinpoint key growth areas in a supportive, resource-rich environment. It’s time to work with your ADHD brain with an attitude of radical acceptance, instead of working against your brain.
- Draw from your strengths and past successes to help you understand what strategies have worked for you and might propel you now toward your current goals.
- Help you accomplish more by doing less: figure out your clear priorities and values, and do the things that matter to you well instead of trying to do everything.
- Help you cultivate a growth mindset and help you reflect in a way that aids your transformation.
- Help you adapt in real-time and re-prioritize when life happens and your plan goes sideways.
- Help you explore different dimensions of motivation and self-efficacy to help you kickstart your change and stay motivated along the way.
- Reconnect you back to what makes you feel alive, your strengths, and what genuinely helps you to recharge.
- Align your to-do list with natural energy fluctuations for optimal focus, productivity, and enjoyment.
- Help you establish realistic benchmarks, a range of goals, settings and timelines to increase your chances of hitting your benchmarks.

Praise for Ying’s 1:1 coaching:
“Because Ying knows and understands so much about how ADHD brains work, because Ying is so resourceful and patient, and because I sense that Ying feels genuine empathy and compassion for me in these efforts, I feel as if I’m in a safe place to be radically honest with myself about what I’m doing and what is and isn’t working, to be courageous about making change, and to work at it consistently. That’s huge! — Carrie H.” “Ying aced at guiding me to create achievable plans and reach my goals. She helped me break down my plans. Ying offered practical examples of how to reduce task difficulty and enhance task completion. Ying also helped me manage my expectations during life’s highs and lows. — Tiffany” “I really appreciate that Ying creates a safe and non-judgmental place for me to express myself. As I am easily triggered or feel insecure when expressing myself, Ying did a great job of letting me talk about my concerns and stress. She gave me suggestions and directions and they are incredibly helpful. — Dan Shu” “I appreciate Ying’s patience and sharpness in each session. She always leads me to face key questions that I tend to avoid facing. She is the most amazing life coach I have ever encountered! While there are still areas in my life that need work, I have started to believe I can improve those areas too by finding my own strength and seeking support from others. — C.C.” “Ying is so understanding and supportive, she helps me embrace my ADHD. She always listens to all my problems patiently and without judgment, so I can talk about my own difficulties openly with a sense of trust. The same challenge may be belittled when I tell other people, but Ying never belittles any seemingly insignificant difficulties and earnestly provides encouragement and help. She makes me feel understood and less alone in my journey toward self-acceptance.“ “Ying’s toolbox is truly impressive, filled with actionable solutions that have a direct impact on my ADHD challenges. Often solving the action problem also solves the underlying emotional problem for me. With a wide range of tools, I never worried about whether a tool would work forever. If a tool works, I will continue using it; if it doesn’t work, I will try the next one. I have created an ADHD toolbox that is the most suitable for me and my ADHD brain with Ying’s help.“ “Even when I am not in a good state or in the midst of emotional ups and downs, Ying’s accommodating communication style still creates a relaxed and stress-free atmosphere for me. I am very thankful to have met Ying. With her help, I can continue to develop my strengths and find tools for my weaknesses”
“Ying always has the ability to extract the most valuable bits from my ramblings, helping me to continuously try new methods and improve. Each coaching session gives me a boost for at least a week. I always look forward to the next session.”
“Thanks to Ying’s coaching. I feel like I’ve made some really great progress lately. Even though it might not always show in my actions or task completion, I genuinely believe my overall state has improved. This boost in confidence is definitely going to help me shine in my work. Now I have more courage in exploring tools and methods that work for me to tackle my own issues.”
