Despite a university degree and a successful career in business, Veronica (40) grappled with severe performance anxiety from an early age. At 38, she finally turned to mental health coach M\u00f3nika B\u00f6lcskei for help.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Veronica<\/strong>: Actually, I contacted M\u00f3nika because I had just been diagnosed with TDAH<\/b><\/a>. I was hoping she could help me, being an ADHD coach.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Veronica<\/strong>: In school, I found it hard to focus and made so many mistakes that it made me feel nervous. Over time, nervousness changed to performance anxiety, particularly in high-pressure situations like meeting deadlines or giving presentations. At the height of my career, I was putting in countless extra hours to get every detail just right. A couple of years ago, it started to take a toll on my mental health. There were still so many things I wanted to achieve but performance anxiety was holding me back. I felt like a failure.<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> M\u00f3nika<\/strong>: Veronica\u2019s case was complex, as it often is with individuals living with ADHD. ADHD not only affects your attention span but also makes it more challenging to control your emotions. We had to tackle not only the symptoms of ADHD but also the performance anxiety induced by it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t M\u00f3nika<\/strong>: Establishing trust and understanding was fundamental in Veronica\u2019s case. I wanted to create a safe space for her to explore her struggles openly. Compassionate Inquiry\u00ae based coaching approach allowed us to address the deeper beliefs underlying Veronica\u2019s anxiety.<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> Veronica:<\/strong> Interestingly, the session revealed that I subconsciously associated my supervisors at work with my father, who was very demanding of me even as a child. Nothing I did was ever good enough, and failing was never an option.<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> M\u00f3nika<\/strong>: Together, we worked to re-frame Veronica\u2019s core beliefs about herself. She realized that the old ideas she adopted as a child no longer served her, and that she had the power to challenge and change them. That was a turning point in her journey towards overcoming performance anxiety. In a next step, I incorporated sess\u00f5es de biofeedback<\/b><\/a> to help her with gest\u00e3o do stress<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t M<\/strong>\u00f3<\/strong>nika<\/strong>: Biofeedback is a powerful tool for building self-awareness and developing self-regulation skills. By training the mind and body to work together harmoniously, individuals like Veronica can break free from the grip of performance anxiety and unlock their full potential<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\tTDAH<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
