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 what I've been solving for 30 years.
EF Coaching & Educational Therapy for kids/teens
Understanding ADHD
in the House
For schools, districts, and parent groups.
Why the Whole Family?
My work is grounded in the belief that parents need early, real-world support because:
-
Sowing the seeds of self-regulation early and often builds resilience, frustration tolerance, skills handling big emotions, and a quality of life the whole family feels. It's never too late to start and every season of childhood offers a real opportunity to shape the habits, tools, and calm that last a lifetime. We call it the Legacy Window.
-
Kids don't learn self-regulation from more talking, they need to see it, feel it, and practice it in real time at home.
-
Parents are swimming in information when what they need is expert insight and guidance in real time.
-
Fixing the child (tutors, therapies, medication) is too often the default intervention despite CDC and AAP recommendations for concurrent parent behavior training.
-
Screens and digital overload are quietly eroding kids' capacity for self-regulation, leaving most parents without the tools to respond effectively.
-
EF challenges don't plateau in adolescence — they accelerate. The longer they go unaddressed, there is often a higher cost, deeper resistance, and a steeper climb back.
