About Anna

Hello, I am Anna, a multiple award winning ADHD coach, mentor, psychologist (GMBPsS).


I coach people with ADHD worldwide to maximise happiness, confidence and performance. 


When I was a kid I was surrounded by a stressful environment that focused a lot on performance and results to the detriment of wellbeing. I remember that I experienced extreme performance anxiety at school when I was sitting tests and exams to the point that I got physically sick and performed 10 times worse than my actual capabilities. 


And as a teenager I was frustrated with watching neurodivergent people feeling unseen, unheard, being labelled lazy or told that they wouldn't amount to anything significant in life. Purely because they couldn't fit in the conventional box of the mainstream system, they missed important opportunities in life and living outside the box myself, I felt the need to mentor them.


I am well known for my unique ability to transform lives through holistic and neuroscience-based coaching specifically designed for neurodiverse people. My empowering and strengths based approach leverages proven models of change and is culturally responsive for a far-reaching impact on all areas of life.


I started in 2003 in my hometown, Athens, Greece, with one student, and then I moved to London, where my coaching hours exceeded 10.000 and where I worked with more than 1000 students in more than 10 countries to date.


In 2024 I was recognised as the most supportive ADHD and Executive Function Coach by the Elite Business Awards. In 2023 I was awarded as the Best Diversity, Inclusion and Leadership Development Training by Business Awards UK and in 2021 I was selected at the 500 Global Brainz awards as one of the top leaders recognised for their success, achievements and dedication to helping others. 


My aim is to impact neuro-distinct people in every continent so that they can go ahead and lead happier and more fulfilling lives with more mindfulness, confidence, and intention. And as a result of this work, I want to see a world with reduced inequalities, good mental health and world-class coaching for everyone, irrespective of geographical location, cultural background or diagnosis.


I would love to invite you to book a complimentary consultation where I can learn more about you and explore ways to potentially work together.
