I took the ADHD Parent Coach Academy from Singapore and found it very helpful and up to date. Cindy has been supportive from the start. I run her webinars in Japanese and English, and participants say they offer new insight. Administration is smooth, and I highly recommend PTS Coaching for coaching and coach training.

Cindy, I really appreciated the opportunity to attend this session.

It was very liberating and am working on developing additional supports for myself that would help hold me accountable and become more successful both in my career and in my personal life. I thank you for opening the realm of opportunity for me.

It’s a pleasure to recommend Cindy Goldrich to present at your school or organization. She led a ½-day presentation at Boulder Country Day School, helping us discover the unique qualities of students and adults with ADHD and executive function issues. Cindy was dynamic, well-informed, and engaging. Her practical strategies were immediately useful, and she’s an outstanding resource for any school or organization.

Thank you.
