"Steve Cogan has helped me to be more successful professionally and personally. Working with Steve, I've been better able to recognize and address the different ways in which my ADD affects my life. He uses practical tools to help me be more focused and effective in my daily life. He is very knowledgeable, compassionate, and respectful and never makes me feel embarrassed or ashamed about my ADD.  He is also helping me to be a better parent to my daughter who has ADD. I highly recommend Steve as a coach to anyone who has ADD or has a child with ADD."

"Discovering that I had ADD when I was in my early 30’s was a hard pill to swallow. I was told about ADD coaching, and that eventually led me to Steve Cogan.  Prior to working with him, I had all these thoughts on what coaching would entail, and I was simply blown away on how off the mark I was.  I was thinking it was therapy and he quickly dispelled that.  He also came from a positive direction making me realize that there are so many positive attributes I already had that were directly the result of living with ADD for 30 years.  He assured me that pretty much all people tend to focus on the negative side of things and this overshadows the positives.  That’s what caught me right away. 

I could feel his passion for what he does, and the best part was that he would have me make subtle fundamental changes daily that were far from overwhelming, but the next thing I knew it was 3 months later and things were really starting to change for me.  I never felt a particular moment when it happened, and that was the beauty of working with Steve…the fact that it was fun and never felt like “work.”  What stood out for me was that I could hear him listening to me (I hope that makes sense) and then he would redirect me to the areas that I wouldn’t pay attention to before.  I still had to take all the action and make the changes, but he would help steer me, and would challenge me. 

I really feel it was worth the investment in working with a coach because there’s absolutely no price I can put on how much I’ve grown since I started working with Steve.  I initially signed on for 3 months, but I knew I wanted to keep going since I changed more in those 3 months than I had over the previous 15 years.  All from just having that person to work with, and not feeling that I was on my own.  Thanks very much."

Steve helped me to quickly and effectively identify the areas in my life that were challenges and caused me to lose focus.  He provided guidance and excellent support while showing
a genuine sense of commitment and caring.  I would recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for counseling and direction.
