Hi, I am Andrew Lewis, full-time Adult ADHD Coach / ADD Coach, writer and founder of SimplySimply - in a simple manner; clearly and easily; unaffectedly or plainly; sincerely yet artlessly - to speak simply as a child; merely; only; unwisely or foolishly; wholly; absolutely - simply irresistibleWellbeingWellbeing - in a good or great condition of existence; a state characterized by health, happiness, and success. I offer coaching for ADHD business professionals, ADHD creative types, ADHD business owners and ADHD entrepreneurs. I live in the UK but coaching is international.
I'm a very experienced ADHD coach. Over the last twenty years I have helped over 500 ADHD business clients with over 15,000 hours of ADHD coaching. From clients working at corporates like Accenture, DeepMind, Sky, Google, KPMG, AXA, NHS, OFCOM, Vodafone, Swiss Bank, NHS, TfL, Virgin, HSBC, UK Foreign Office, UBS, SKB, British Civil Service, HP, Deloitte, Amazon, to entrepreneurs, founders and small business owners too. Many of their problems and ambitions fall outside the normal range of ADHD advice for procrastination or to-do lists. Clients often coach with me for years, several clients have coached with me for over a decade. Book a call with me now.
Prior to coaching, I have twenty years experience in IT Software Business: from programming to successfully running and starting a number of small IT services and product business, worked at IBM for 7 years, built business plans, managed staff, found funding, and sold enterprise solutions. As with most ADHD adults I have had my share of ups and downs in my life, hopefully this helps us both cut quickly to the issue and in finding practical, sustainable, first principle solutions, to help you thrive and succeed.
I write and coach from the perspective of difference, not disorder. See my thoughts in What is ADHD? We can only develop from who we are – our genetic roots. The aim is not to “normalize” but to focus on sustainable solutions, on strengths and on what truly engages""Dwell as near as possible to the channel in which your life flows." David Thoreau, Journal, March 12, 1853, you.

Sixteen years ago, I Wikipedia-diagnosed my ADHD, subsequently medically diagnosed several times. I’d always known I was different, and not all in a bad way! Impulsively I then sold my 50% share of our growing web-consulting business, to my relieved partner to end my twenty-year career in computing and software. My new career as an adult ADD/ADHD coach began as I started training with ADDCA.
Since 2006 I have been a full-time ADD / ADHD coach and have hosted several regular support groups and talks like: Tear & Share Support Group, ADHD Expert talks, ADHD Women’s Coaching Group in London. I even set up and ran an adult ADHD diagnostic clinic for a while. Here’s a full bio on me if you want to read more!
I am currently developing some new highly interactive and engaging self-coaching courses, called Breaking down your ADHD.
