My coaching program promotes self-control, empowerment and social skills.

ADHD Coaching with Families

My focus is to help you learn about AD(H)D, give guidance and support, help navigate the journey and work with you to manage issues that are occurring or arise.

With my practical suggestions you and your family can help your child define and achieve success on a day-to-day basis.

Examples:

  • Reduce stress on your family by working together to manage your child’s difficulties with self control, frustration, decision making, and/or social skills
  • Reduce conflicts at home by teaching you effective communication techniques
  • Teach you how to become a strong advocate for your child
  • Improve your families quality of life
