Effective ADHD management often involves a combination of strategies. I work together with you to develop a tailor made strategy that works with your brain, not against it. In this way we can help you focus on the areas that you are finding the most challenging to help promote positive changes with your executive functioning.

The approach is collaborative, you are the driver. I provide resources via email as needed, but prefer a more 1:1 discussion style in the session so as not to distract to much. However, everyone has a different learning style, so I adapt to my clients. For example, if they are visual learners, I am very happy to use slides to demonstrate ideas and concepts as needed. This is all discussed in the beginning along with your goals and aspirations for the sessions.

I have lived experience in disability and neurodiversity, so understand that executive challenges experienced come from a system that does not account for how your brain works. It has nothing to do with your intelligence or what you can achieve given the right tools and support. My teachers said I would not amount to much, instead I got my Masters and ended up working for a Fortune 500 company. Understanding how to work with your brain, without exhausting yourself by 'masking', can make a huge difference to your educational and professional journey.

Depending on the age of my students, I also work with the family members on what they can do to best support you.
