Presenter

Dr Michele Toner researched university students with ADHD and learning difficulties for her PhD. This added to the body of knowledge she has acquired in her 20 years of working with people who learn differently, and led her to open her full time coaching practice 5 years ago.

Over the years, she has witnessed inspiring transformations in people of all ages, following the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD and/or a learning difficulty. With these in mind, she designs workshops and coaching sessions aimed at helping people to reduce the negative impact of their symptoms and make the most of positive attributes they possess.
