ADHD Coaching / Workplace Strategy Coaching
|
Dionysios provides specialised workplace strategy coaching for individuals with ADHD, addressing their unique needs and aspirations in the professional world.
Workplace coaching is designed to empower neurodivergent individuals at various stages of their careers, whether looking for their first job, wanting to improve their performance in their current role, or contemplating a career transition after feeling stagnant or facing challenges like redundancy. ADHD can present specific workplace barriers that affect day-to-day performance and wellbeing. Coaching with Dionysios addresses these directly, including executive functioning challenges such as planning, time management and organisation; task prioritisation and managing competing deadlines; difficulties with focus and concentration in busy or distracting environments; emotional regulation, stress and the risk of burnout; as well as communication differences, whether navigating meetings, adapting to remote work, or building confidence in self-advocacy with managers and colleagues. Rather than focusing narrowly on coping strategies, Dionysios takes a strengths-based approach, helping clients identify what they do well and build on it. The aim is not simply to manage difficulties but to create the conditions in which neurodivergent professionals can thrive. This involves a deep exploration of personal strengths, interests and lifestyle choices, leading to practical strategies that are tailored to each client’s cognitive profile and working environment. Coaching can be self-funded, funded by your employer, or covered through the government's Access to Work scheme, which provides grants for workplace support including ADHD coaching for employed and self-employed individuals. |
Coaching approach
At the core of Dionysios’ coaching philosophy is a deeply rooted belief in the transformative power of individualised support. A dedicated listener, Dionysios aims to help clients go deeper and uncover patterns and habits that might impede their growth. Driven by empathy, proactive encouragement and evidence-based methods, he ensures that each session is customised to meet his clients’ unique needs and challenges, propelling them closer to their personal or professional goals.
What happens in a coaching session
In a typical session with Dionysios, clients can expect an atmosphere that is relaxed yet highly focused, friendly yet result-oriented. Armed with a range of practical tools and frameworks, and employing a mix of active listening, probing questions and constructive feedback, Dionysios assists clients in effectively assessing their values, motivations and circumstances, before helping them identify their available choices, create a detailed plan of action, and put in place strategies to ensure they stay on track and reach their objectives.

Testimonials
“Working with Dionysios has been genuinely and profoundly life-changing. When we started our sessions, I was professionally vulnerable and had lost my self-confidence. His empathy, insight, and practical strategies helped me see myself and my strengths in a completely new light. Through his coaching, I have strengthened my organisational and problem-solving skills, improved my working relationships, and, perhaps most importantly, rediscovered my creativity, self-belief, and self-compassion. I have felt deeply seen and understood throughout the process, thanks to Dionysios’s balance of warmth and thoughtful challenge. I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact he has had on both my professional life and my overall sense of self”
– MJ, Academic
“Dr Dionysios Kyropoulos is an outstanding ADHD coach and trainer whose work has been genuinely transformative for me.
His deep understanding of neurodiversity, combined with a compassionate, practical approach, helped me feel seen, supported, and empowered to understand my ADHD in a whole new way. Every session left me with clear insights, tools I could actually use, and a sense of grounded hope. Dionysios creates an affirming and safe space that honours your unique brain rather than trying to "fix" it. Something that felt deeply healing and refreshing. His professional expertise, lived understanding, and humour make him a rare and brilliant practitioner. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for authentic, affirming, and effective ADHD support”
– Kate, Mental Health Nurse
“I really enjoyed working with Dionysios. He is professional, meticulous, and incredibly empathetic—a quality that can be challenging to master if it's not innate. Dionysios has a remarkable ability to explain complex ideas in simple terms. My conversations with him have been a journey of self-reflection, growth, and learning. I wholeheartedly recommend Dionysios to anyone in need of support. We can all become stronger; sometimes, we just need a little help”
– Luna, Lecturer
“I had a wonderful experience working with Dr Kyropoulos, who was incredibly supportive in helping me navigate my recent ADHD diagnosis. Through coaching sessions, I gained a deeper understanding of this part of myself and learned how to optimize my overall performance. I highly recommend Dr. Kyropoulos to anyone seeking expert guidance and support”
– Vanessa
“My coaching journey with Dionysios has honestly been one of the most valuable learning experiences I’ve ever had. It’s enabled me to see things from a different perspective and identify what truly matters to me. Dionysios provides a safe and open environment where I feel comfortable being my true self. He’s helped me to make an important career and ultimately a life decision, and I feel very positive about the future”
– Emma, Charity Learning Manager
“I have received coaching sessions which have been very helpful in helping me think about managing my day to day activities, workload and thinking about the impact personal life. Would recommend—an excellent coach”
– Laura
“Dionysios was a wonderful listener. He understood the unique challenges involved in managing ADHD, from the way appointments were scheduled and reminded, to the actual conversations themselves. Every conversation was insightful. I would often discover some habits or patterns of behaviour that get in the way of my goals or of just keeping it all together. The conversations were always smooth and relaxed yet still tended towards important aspects of ADHD and goals. Highly recommended coach”
– BJ, Academic
“Working with Dionysios was a very empowering experience. He skilfully coached me to overcome my self-limiting beliefs and to feel confident to embrace my new professional role. With his support I am now preparing myself to set up my own business, which I could not envisage prior to coaching. Dionysios managed to do this with warmth, firm but gentle challenge and humour. The sessions were purposeful but enjoyable and I never felt stupid or judged. I left every session feeling positive, enthusiastic and keen to move forward. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others”
– Gill, Adolescent Wellbeing Coach
“Dionysios helped me break down my big life decisions into actionable steps. Without his support and guidance I would probably still be stumbling blind in pursuit of my goals. In just over month I was able to set myself course, and in three more months, I was able to reach my goals”
– Julian, Materials Science Researcher and Data Analytics Instructor
“My sessions with Dionysios have led to very positive changes in my life. He helped me develop a strategy to improve my sleeping, which was simple but effective, and for the first time in ten years I sleep well and feel rested in the mornings. Dionysios helped to clarify what I was feeling, worried about, or required to do and then helped me navigate some potentially difficult situations, such as assisting me in planning for meetings with key figures for a major project I am engaged in. He has also shown me how I can improve my general health through a number of simple actions. At all times, he has been friendly, upbeat, proactive and encouraging. I would thoroughly recommend Dionysios to anyone and I hope that he goes on to help many others, as he has helped me!”
