Are you finding it hard to adult, even though you’re, well, an adult?

Do your child’s executive function challenges feel like déja vu all over again?

Are you struggling with any of the following?

• Planning and follow-through (making and carrying out goals and plans)

• Awareness (of others and yourself)

• Flexibility (adapting to changing situations)

• Self-control (how we respond to our emotions and stressful situations)

• Focus (concentrating on demand on what’s important)

Our kids aren’t the only ones who need guidance and coaching. In a world where there are more demands than ever on our time, our attention, and our energy, you might benefit from some scaffolding of your own.

Maybe you already know you’re the tree from whence your ADHD kiddo sprung. Maybe you don’t have a diagnosis, but you have a hunch and you just want to learn how to accommodate your brain needs.

Lisa and Tatiana, CM's co-directors, offer a space for adults to get the help they need to foster compassion and patience for themselves (and their families). Here are some of the areas they cover in coaching sessions:

• Reframing how you think about time

• Helping you identify your own EF strengths and weaknesses

• Cultivating compassion for yourself

• Learning how to identify your purpose and your goals

• Using your purpose and goals to prioritize and plan

• Finding your future glasses and operating from a place of wonder rather than fear

• Identifying a few tools and strategies to use at home to scaffold your own executive function skills

• Devoting unadulterated time to connecting with yourself, your friends, and your family

• We ask people to self-evaluate in ten areas: metacognition, organization, time management, working memory, planning & prioritizing, task initiation, sustained attention, flexible thinking & problem-solving, stick-to-itiveness, and emotional regulation. 

If needed:

• Learning the nitty-gritty details of ADHD (and other learning differences), how it shows up for you at home and at work, and how it impacts relationships.

• Learning and understanding terms like PDA, RSD, and other ADHD characteristics. 

• Reframing your thinking about ADHD so you can approach growth with a strengths-based lens.
