Cogni-Link Coaching

Cogni-Link Coaching Coaching that uses neuroscience-based strategies for Adults with Autism and ADHD Hello, my name is Deanna Houck. I would love to meet you.

I am a certified Life Coach and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology from Marian College at Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, and a Master of Science degree in educational/professional counselor tract from Concordia University in Mequon, Wisconsin. I recently earned a certificate in Neuropsychotherapy from Mind Works Professional Education, Inc. I am often described as compassionate, creative, and curious. I have almost 30 years’ experience collaborating with individuals who have substance use disorders, chronic mental health disorders and developmental disabilities. I have worked in a variety of care settings ranging from clinics to residential treatment facilities. In addition, I spent five years providing case management and in-home therapy to individuals in a Community Support Program. I specialize in supporting neurodivergent adult individuals to build healthier relationships, regulate their moods, and conquer their anxieties. My treatment approach focuses on discovering emotions, emotional regulation, and targeting ineffective behaviors, and beliefs. I use coaching and counseling strategies in my practice to ensure better treatment outcomes. Therapy provides the blueprint for positive change. Coaching provides the support, stretch, and accountability to make change happen. I was inspired to work in mental health by supporting loved ones with mental health issues. Along my journey to becoming a professional, I overcame my own life struggles because life happens. I have a powerful desire to end mental health stigma and to help improve the lives of others. My goal is to help others reduce emotional suffering and develop resilience through Neurodiverse Affirming Care. If anything on my profile resonates with you, book an appointment today! I offer telehealth appointments and have limited in-person appointments available in Madison, WI. I offer a 15-minute free phone consultation so you can see if the services at Cogni-Link Coaching are right for you.

For many women, ADHD isn’t loud — it’s overwhelming, exhausting, and often invisible.

💬 Ever felt like this?

Constant procrastination, even for things you want to do.

Always rushed, even when you planned ahead.

Chronic fatigue from mental overload and masking.

Clumsiness — bumping into things, unexplained bruises.

Misplacing your keys, purse, or phone… again.

Disorganization at home, clutter you can’t keep up with.

Feeling stuck, paralyzed by too many choices or needing to do things perfectly.

Deep guilt or shame for not being able to “just get it together.”

👩‍🔬 These symptoms are real — and they’re often missed in women.

Unlike ADHD males, many women with ADHD internalize their symptoms:

They look "put together" but feel like they're falling apart inside.

They’re often misdiagnosed with anxiety, depression, or even fibromyalgia before ADHD is considered.

💡 You are not lazy. You are not failing.
You may have been living with undiagnosed ADHD all along.

It’s time to talk about it.
It’s time to be seen.
