About

Karina Ryan

Hi there. I'm Karina, an ADHD Life Coach helping women, moms, other adults, college students, teens, and parents. I possess not only a professional understanding of ADHD's challenges, but I also have plenty of lived experience as a late-diagnosed woman with ADHD and mom to several children with ADHD. In fact, I spent many years parenting kids with ADHD before I, myself, was diagnosed. Talk about a plot twist! I've been passionate about understanding ADHD for nearly two decades. My own diagnosis kicked that interest into hyperdrive.

As an ADHD Life Coach, I help others understand their ADHD and create lives that work with their brains - no against them. I am passionate about supporting clients through the exciting process of self awareness, acceptance and goal oriented action. As you embrace the wholeness of who you truly are, we can get down to the business of understanding the unique way your brain works so that you can create positive, sustainable changes in your life.

 

My approach to ADHD coaching is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and practical support. Together we'll identify what's getting in your way, build on your strengths, experiment with strategies, and work toward meaningful changes that are sustainable beyond our sessions. I seriously can't wait to get started! 

I provide (mostly) virtual ADHD coaching throughout the greater Minneapolis area as well as nationwide.

Beyond spending time with our busy blended family of six kids (5 are teens - buckle up!), I live for the outdoors, especially if it involves hiking with my husband and our dogs. 

I'm a sucker for road trips, indoor lighting that's "just right", charming coffee shops, exploring new places, and spaces I can organize. 

I get lost in good books, true crime and biographical docuseries, and house projects. 

I'll take going deep over small talk any day of the week, I'm equally smitten by both sunrise and sunset, and I relish the Herculean energy I experience when in a hyperfocus.
