ADHD Parent Support 

Supporting parents of neurodivergent children.

 

Your child has received an ADHD diagnoses- what's next?

 

Would you like to learn more about ADHD?  

 

Perhaps you'd like support to implement practical strategies that support your child's success and assist family harmony?

 

Yvonne supports parents to implement routines and evidence-based strategies to empower their child to succeed at school, at home, & in relationships. 

  Strategies address challenges with:

These struggles are commonly due to a lag in executive function (EF) development. Children with ADHD typically have a 30% lag in EF development.

​

EF skills develop from the 1st year of life through to mid to late 20's. 

​

There are specific strategies that parents can implement to assist their child's EF skills.

Research has proven that behaviour therapies are an effective treatment for ADHD and are most effective when delivered by parents.

Academic Success

Academic Coaching

Year 7 - University

for all students striving to reach their academic potential.

​​

​​

Yvonne works one-on-one with your child to help them set goals and learn strategies that promote academic success, while supporting them to overcome challenges.

 

Children aren't born with the executive function skills needed for academic success. Strategies for time management, organisation, focus and study skills must be learned, just like times tables.

​

When a student discovers a system that works for them, it makes a world of difference.

​

Students receive customised sessions to help them set goals and implement strategies to achieve these.

​​​

 Sessions address:​

  • Goal Setting

  • Focused Attention

  • Organisation

  • Study Skills

  • Exam Performance

  • Homework Completion

  • Time Management

  • Task Initiation

  • Prioritisation

  • Planning

  • Stress Management

  • Emotional Regulation

  • Healthy Choices: sleep, diet, exercise, screen limits etc

​

As a parent of two teenage boys- one attending Auckland Medical School and another in A-stream at Auckland Grammar School- Yvonne understands how to connect with students, support their success, while also encouraging participation in extracurricular activities that bring them joy.
