ADHD Parent Support

Supporting parents of neurodivergent children.

Your child has just received an ADHD or AuDHD diagnosis - what happens now?

Understanding ADHD/AuDHD brain differences, and effective parenting strategies is a game changer for families.

Yvonne supports parents to build on their child’s strengths- implementing evidence-based and practical strategies to help children thrive at school, at home, and in relationships - while bringing greater harmony and connection to the whole family.

Strategies address challenges with:

Emotional Regulation
Relationships/Parenting
Academic Success
Response Inhibition
Sustained Attention
Planning and Organising
Managing Belongings
Working Memory
Initiating Tasks
Completing Tasks
Working Towards Goals
Time Management
Flexibility
Problem Solving
Metacognition
Sensory Differences

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

There are specific strategies that parents can implement to support 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.

Yvonne works one-on-one with teens/young adults to help them implement strategies that promote academic success, supporting them to overcome challenges and reach their goals.

Teens can benefit tremendously from support and practical strategies to assist time management, organisation, focus, and study skills. We aren't born with these executive functioning skills. Coaching can support your teen to set and achieve goals that are meaningful to them.

Sessions address:

Study Skills

Planning
Focused Attention
Organisation
