I'm curious if you looked at neurofeedback/neurostimulation as an alternative to therapy based intervention when looking at your offering.

I don't have ADHD, but met the founders of https://neurode.com 2 days ago, and I'm in the neurotech space.

I'm surprised to see coaching based solutions continue to exist in a space where more direct interventions exist.

Can you give some of your thinking on this?

Thank you for sharing your experiences - neurofeedback/ neurostimulation is indeed a novel and promising pathway to, ultimately, improving quality of life for those who has ADHD. While we can't talk about all of coaching since it differs, our coaching offer which is informed by the 3rd wave cognitive and behavioural psychological approaches, is situated firmly within the practices that were demonstrated to be useful and helpful to those with ADHD. This is supported by the ongoing research in coaching and psychotherapy. In addition, our view is that it is a combination of different types of interventions which really makes a difference for those with ADHD. I am eagerly watching the progression of Neurode though, and the trials!
