For many students with ADHD, school is a major source of stress and self-doubt—but it doesn’t need to be that way. We support both students and educators through classroom observations, IEP and 504 support, teacher training, and more.
Services for Parents and Students
-
Our academic intervention support specialists will meet with parents to discuss parent concerns regarding student academic performance. Parents can gain an understanding of learning disabilities, ADHD and how they affect academic performance. Our support specialists also work with parents who want to gain a better understanding of the IEP, and 504 plan process and implementation, appropriate accommodations and modifications. Parents will gain a deeper understanding of how to work with the school and how to access help for struggling students.
Clinicians and coaches will charge their hourly rate for an agreed upon amount of time to review, assess and write 504 accommodations and recommendations when conducted outside the client meeting time.

School Observations
Our academic intervention support specialists conduct in-school observations in order to help target skills and behaviors needing to be addressed in the school setting. In-Class Observations typically include the following, but are not limited to what is mentioned below.Observations are tailored to individual needs:
Student transitions from one activity to the next, or from direct instruction to seated work
Collecting data on how many students are on task, neutral or off task in comparison to your child
Teacher interacts with the students, how they gain attention and help them transition to seat work or group work
Observing the energy level in the classroom and how your student fits in or feeds off of others( or not)
Observing where the student struggles with active listening, getting the directions, if the student can transition and initiate the task, and then persist through the task in comparison to the other students
Observing potential problems in getting directions, understanding directions, outputting and completing a task etc…
In-School Coaching
Many of our coaches will go to the school site to do coaching. This typically depends on school policy and scheduling.School Meetings
In order to bring together supports and interventions it is often times important to meet with school personnel (class teacher, administrator, school counselor, learning difference support person, etc.) in addition to the parents and when appropriate the student. These meetings help bring the team together as a cohesive unit and allows everyone involved with the child to be on the same page and develop a plan together with appropriate supports. -
For many kids and teens with ADHD, school is a major cause of stress and unhappiness. By working with a tutor or “academic coach,” a student is able to better understand their unique learning style, develop study skills that work for them, and regain confidence in their abilities.
For ongoing, one-on-one tutoring, we partner with Hampton Tutors. Their academic coaching model provides comprehensive learning support with a focus on the underlying skills required for academic success.

We collaborate with schools to provide psychoeducational testing services for students.
The testing process can reveal unique patterns of strengths and weaknesses that impact learning and executive functioning. It can identify a learning disability and help explain the impact ADHD has on a learner.

They deeply understand the challenges that face classroom teachers and have the classroom experience and educational background to address the needs of the neurodiverse classroom.
How It Works
1 . All new clients—both those with and without an existing ADHD diagnosis— begin with an initial evaluation where we assess their needs.
2. We create a tailored treatment plan, which may include further evaluation and diagnosis, regular therapy or coaching sessions, ADHD medication, and/or any of our additional services.
Please note: our intake process may vary slightly from location to location.
