“I was feeling a little hopeless when I called Clarence. My ADHD was interfering with my success at work and personal well-being at home. The therapists I had worked with didn’t have ADHD as their focus, and their strategies were not effective for me. In contrast, working with Clarence has been transformative. ADHD is his focus, and his patient encouragement and practical strategies have helped me gain more control over my schedule and life. I recommend Clarence to you if you are looking for effective strategies to address the challenges of ADHD.”

“I sought out Clarence to help our son with Executive Function challenges during his first year at UCLA. I truly believe Clarence was a material cause of our son’s success. Clarence provided a systematic, but tailored, approach to helping our son develop productive study habits and problem-solving skills that resulted in measurable results. Better yet, Clarence is very personable and down to earth. When I asked our son how he would rank “Dr. Perkins’” overall value to him, he immediately offered, “a ten out of ten.” His parents agree.”

ADHD Coaching Frequently Asked Questions

What is executive function coaching, and how does it help ADHD?

Executive function coaching provides practical, evidence-based strategies to manage neurodivergent challenges like ADHD. It builds strong cognitive habits around planning, structural organization, time management, and emotional regulation.

Who benefits most from working with an executive function coach?

We work with high school and college students, independent young adults, corporate professionals, and busy families seeking custom routines to bypass overwhelm and bridge the gap between their innate intelligence and real-world productivity.

Do I need an official diagnosis of ADHD or Autism to start coaching?

No official clinical diagnosis of ADHD, High-Functioning Autism, or Executive Function Deficit (EFD) is required. Coaching targets specific operational bottlenecks like procrastination, disorganized spaces, and time blindness, regardless of a medical label.
