Structured, evidence-based training that builds the skills ADHD makes hardest: time management, planning, organizing materials, and following through. Offered for children and teens, with cognitive behavioral approaches available for young adults.

Behavioral Classroom Management

We collaborate directly with teachers and school personnel to put research-based supports in place where your child spends most of the day, from daily report cards to classroom accommodations.

Medication Coordination

Some individuals with ADHD benefit from medication as part of their treatment plan. While we do not prescribe, we coordinate closely with psychiatrists and physicians so behavioral and medication approaches work together rather than in parallel.
