ADHD evaluations are available for children, adolescents, and adults who are experiencing concerns related to attention, organization, impulsivity, activity level, executive functioning, or other difficulties that may be affecting daily life.

Executive function, ADHD, and academic coaching provide practical, individualized support for adolescents and adults who want help developing strategies to manage the demands of school, work, and everyday life.
Coaching may focus on areas such as organization, planning, time management, task initiation, prioritization, study skills, managing assignments and longer-term projects, test preparation strategies, work habits, and creating sustainable routines and systems. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, strategies are tailored to the individual's strengths, challenges, goals, and environment.
Coaching is goal-oriented and collaborative, with an emphasis on developing practical skills that can be applied between sessions and adapted as needs change.
Fee: $200 per 50-minute session
