The demand threshold capacity, a concept often used in discussions of ADHD, refers to the point at which an individual's cognitive resources are stretched to their limits.

The Power of ADHD Coaching

ADHD coaching is a specialised form of support that focuses on developing strategies and techniques tailored to an individual's unique strengths and challenges. It is designed to address the specific needs of individuals with ADHD, providing them with the tools to improve their executive functioning skills – essential skills that allow us to plan, prioritise, organise, initiate tasks, and sustain effort. These skills are particularly crucial for students who often find themselves juggling a multitude of academic and personal responsibilities.

The demand threshold capacity, a concept often used in discussions of ADHD, refers to the point at which an individual's cognitive resources are stretched to their limits. When students exceed this threshold, their ability to manage task, stay organised, and maintain focus can be compromised. ADHD coaching equips students with practical strategies to effectively manage their threshold capacity, allowing them to navigate the demands of university life more successfully.
