Achieving Growth in the ADHD Brain
Cognitive Growth is Possible
In the field of school psychology, we are often taught that cognitive scores, like IQ, are relatively fixed and that mental processes remain stable over time. But I believe strongly that our brains are capable of growth, adaptation, and improvement with the right training and support. This is especially true for children with ADHD, whose symptoms often mask their true potential. Through intentional, evidence-based cognitive training, I’ve seen firsthand how students can improve their attention, memory, and processing skills, allowing their true abilities to shine. Cognitive Growth Academy is built on this belief—that with targeted intervention, effort, and practice, we can help unlock the hidden potential within every child.
Beyond Medication
A Strategic, Evidence-Based Alternative
Every parent wants to give their child the best chance at success, but many feel stuck when traditional approaches like medication fall short or aren’t the right fit for their family. Cognitive Growth Academy offers an evidence-based, non-medication alternative that directly addresses the core symptoms of ADHD through Cognitive Enhancement Therapy. This is not just another program—it's a carefully crafted intervention designed to mold young minds, equip them with the skills they need, and empower families along the way.
Preparing for High School and Beyond
Building Strong Learners
Cognitive Growth Academy is not just about immediate results—it’s about preparing students for the long-term challenges of high school and beyond. The transition to high school can be overwhelming for students with ADHD, where executive functioning skills and self-management become even more crucial. Our program equips students with the tools they need to:
- Navigate Complex Academic Demands: From organizing assignments to managing study schedules, students learn skills that will help them thrive in high school.
- Develop Independence: By enhancing their cognitive and social abilities, students become more self-sufficient and capable of managing their own learning and responsibilities.
- Achieve Social Success: Social skills are essential in high school, where peer interactions and group work are integral to the experience. We help students build the confidence and skills needed to form positive relationships and participate effectively.
Limited Availability for Maximum Impact
To maintain the highest quality of personalized care, we limit enrollment to a small number of clients at a time, allowing us to focus on each child's unique growth journey. Our 12-week cohorts are carefully designed to foster measurable progress, helping students prepare for the next phase of their academic journey. Due to the specialized nature of our program, spaces often fill quickly. When fully booked, we offer a waitlist option, ensuring that interested families are prioritized as soon as spots become available.
A Commitment to Your Child’s Future
Cognitive Growth Academy is more than a service; it’s a mission to provide children with severe ADHD a fighting chance at success. This program is designed to teach crucial skills during a formative period in their brain development, setting them up for high school and life beyond as confident, independent learners. I believe in each child’s ability to achieve their own potential, and I am here to guide them—and you—every step of the way.
