About Faisal Hussain

ADHD Coach
Faisal is a creative entrepreneur based in Cambridgeshire, UK, and has a background in marketing, coaching / mentoring and community development. After being diagnosed with ADHD and dyspraxia in November 2021, he feels that it’s now part of his duty to raise awareness about neurodiversity in the Muslim community and beyond as being undiagnosed for 26 years of life impacted his life, upbringing, education, relationships, spirituality, mental health and career.
Faisal's creativity as an artist has helped him therapeutically throughout life and he likes to show the impact it can have on wider society and his mental health.
He continues to implement awareness in society about neurodiversity, most recently helping create the neurodiversity training package and support groups for staff at the London Fire Brigade. He also has created social media awareness channels to raise awareness about ADHD, which have received a worldwide response - especially from the Muslim community.
A video Faisal created about having ADHD in November 2021 went viral, and the reaction from the Muslim world showed him the importance of raising awareness about it. Muslims need to also learn that learning difficulties are different to mental health issues, which can exist and can impact them further.

  • An ADHD & Dyspraxia Diagnosis
  • How (Hurtful) Words Matter
  • The Right ADHD Strategies Can Make All the Difference!
