ADHD in the House? You Need Someone
Who Understands the Whole Picture.
You've got a bright kid, a full life, and a growing sense that the usual advice isn't working. That's exactly where I come in.
EF Coaching & Educational Therapy for kids/teens
Understanding ADHD
in the House
For schools, districts, and parent groups

Now enrolling — weekly or on your own schedule
As the new school year gets going, EF Launchpad is open and ready: executive function and academic coaching for your child, paired with hands-on coaching for you, live in the Lab in Kentfield. Students meet Dan in person; parents can join in the Lab or online — whatever fits your family. Your coaching is rooted in the PAUSE People System — helping you understand what's really going on, and how to show up differently when there's ADHD in the house. Meet weekly, or space sessions out to your own pace. Either way, a few consistent weeks now is enough to interrupt the pattern, that predictable dip once the new-school-year momentum wears off, before you're right back where you started.
Start whenever you're ready.
Why the Whole Family?
Self-regulation doesn't develop from more talking. It develops from being seen, supported, and practiced — in real time, at home, with you. The window before age 12 is particularly powerful. We call it the Legacy Window. Here's what most families don't realize:
-
The default is to fix the child — tutors, therapies, medication. But the CDC and AAP say parent behavior training is the most important frontline intervention, and it's almost never offered first.
-
Screens are quietly eroding kids' capacity for focus and self-regulation — and most parents don't have the tools to push back effectively.
-
EF challenges don't plateau in adolescence — they accelerate. The sooner families build the right skills and environment, the less steep the climb.
