Anna Dafna

Multiple Award-Winning ADHD & Executive Function Coach | Mentor | Psychologist (GMBPsS)

www.annadaphna.com

I don’t just speak about ADHD — I live it, coach through it, mentor others beyond it, and inspire people to lead with the minds they have, not the ones they’re told to have.

Over the years, I noticed something deeper under the surface of every ADHD strategy consultation and productivity plan:

🌀 Nervous systems in constant survival mode
🧭 A disconnect from future self and identity
🤯 People asking “What’s wrong with me?” instead of “What’s happening inside me?”

So I shifted my approach. I began combining executive function coaching with nervous system regulation, psychology with somatic methods, and Socratic inquiry with identity work.

I don’t just share ideas — I guide people into a deeper connection with themselves. Whether in coaching, webinars or interviews, I create nervous system-level shifts, not just moments of inspiration.

Story

But it was not always easy. Anna's self-empowerment began as a teenager when she faced concentration, confidence and performance anxiety challenges. "She will never really amount to anything if she continues staring outside the window", "She is not good at Maths and she cannot even draw a straight line" or "She is constantly daydreaming. It must be an attention deficit", was common feedback she received at school.

But instead of being defeated, she embraced the challenge. This commitment to personal development has led her to a deeper understanding of herself and her strengths and made her a catalyst for the change her clients seek.
