Summary

I am looking for a qualified psychologist or highly experienced ADHD-focused behavioral coach for a structured, long-term online collaboration combining psychological work with practical productivity support. ABOUT ME I am a 19-year-old university student and entrepreneur living in Warsaw, Poland. I have diagnosed ADHD and ambitious long-term goals. My main difficulties include: • overwhelm and anxiety when planning • procrastination and avoidance of important tasks • difficulty starting and completing projects • perfectionism and fear of failure • inconsistent daily structure • escaping into distractions when I feel pressure • creating ambitious plans without consistently implementing them I am not looking only for motivational conversations. I want to understand and change the psychological patterns that repeatedly block my actions, while also building a realistic structure for everyday life. GOALS OF THE COLLABORATION • Understand the emotional and behavioral mechanisms behind my avoidance • Work with anxiety, perfectionism, shame, overwhelm, and fear of failure • Improve emotional regulation and executive functioning • Build stable routines and a realistic daily structure • Learn how to start important tasks despite discomfort • Reduce procrastination and avoidance • Develop healthier ways of responding to stress • Improve consistency in university, business, relationships, and personal responsibilities • Translate psychological insight into specific behavioral actions • Build long-term independence rather than dependence on the professional PROPOSED FORMAT I would like frequent, structured online sessions, preferably in the morning Warsaw time. My initial idea is: • 20–30 minute structured morning sessions on selected weekdays • one longer weekly psychological session • clear goals and behavioral experiments between sessions • brief tracking of patterns, actions, and progress • regular evaluation of whether the frequency and format are clinically appropriate I understand that the final format and frequency should be agreed after an initial professional assessment. I am not requesting 24/7 access, emergency support, or personal control over my life. THE RIGHT PERSON I am looking for someone who: • is a qualified psychologist or appropriately trained behavioral coach • has experience working with adults with ADHD • understands executive dysfunction, anxiety, avoidance, and perfectionism • is warm but direct and honest • does not encourage endless analysis without action • can recognize recurring patterns and translate them into practical interventions • maintains clear professional boundaries and confidentiality • helps clients become more independent over time • is comfortable working online in English or Polish • is interested in a serious, long-term collaboration PREFERRED APPROACHES Experience with one or more of the following would be valuable: • cognitive behavioral therapy • acceptance and commitment therapy • behavioral activation • ADHD-focused coaching • executive-function training • motivational interviewing • evidence-informed habit and behavior change QUALIFICATIONS Please provide: 1. Your education and professional qualifications 2. Your experience working with adults with ADHD 3. Whether you provide psychological services, coaching, or both 4. Your professional registration, accreditation, or supervision arrangements 5. Your available hours in Warsaw time 6. Your proposed session format and frequency 7. Your rate for short sessions and longer weekly sessions 8. How you would balance psychological insight with practical action Please begin your response with the words: CLEAR ACTION. I am looking for a professional who will understand me deeply, challenge avoidance honestly, and help me make sustainable changes — not someone who promises to “transform my life” for me.
