It’s not their
(or your) fault 

From One Parent to Another

Being a teen or young adult is hard.

 Its even harder when you struggle to maintain focus, follow-through on projects, remember your homework, or regulate your emotions. Sometimes they believe they aren’t smart, worthy, or capable.

I help them understand it’s not a character flaw, it’s their ADHD brain.

They don’t lack willpower. They’re not lazy or unintelligent. They can stop blaming themselves.

Your child can find relief from the shame and frustration that often accompanies ADHD challenges.

You can find joy knowing you've entrusted a fellow parent and experienced coach to help them discover their brilliance. 


Let's Connect

The shame stops here.

As a parent, you can understand ADHD and create strategies and systems to help the whole family. 

Parenting

Your child can improve their ability to plan, organize, finish homework, meet deadlines, and focus in class.

Your child can learn how to foster connection, manage their workspace, handle chores, and practice communication skills.

Undertreated ADHD or executive functioning deficits impact the entire family. 
We’ll work together to restore balance in your child’s life
and help them be a functional member of the family.

Understanding ADHD as a neuro-developmental difference is complex and often difficult to understand.

That's why I offer education for the whole family.  Through bite-size lessons, visuals, and curated science-backed content, you and your child will know the structural and functional differences of the ADHD brain. 

ADHD brains are powerful. The people who own them are generally creative, deeply analytical, capable of feeling highly nuanced emotions, and divergent thinkers. 

Together we can help your child see their ADHD as a unique central nervous system that follows its own rules. Once we know the rules, everything makes sense.

I never give up on a kid.

I will accept your young person exactly as they are.  

I see people's possibilities, not deficits.

I'm a proud owner of an ADHD brain.

I believe everyone can solve their own problems.

I'm not a therapist. I use an action-oriented coaching model that focuses on the present.

I'm a mom who gets it.
