Workshops

Why do the same conflicts keep happening at home — the same arguments, the same shutdowns, and the same frustration?

If you're raising a child with ADHD, you've likely noticed patterns that seem to repeat themselves no matter how hard you try to change them. That's not a coincidence. ADHD-related stress often shapes unspoken "roles" and "scripts" within a family — patterns of interaction that feel automatic, even when they leave everyone feeling stuck, frustrated, or disconnected.

What This Workshop Covers

This workshop takes a closer look at the invisible dynamics playing out in homes affected by ADHD, including:

• How ADHD-related stress shapes family roles — and why certain patterns show up again and again, even across different conflicts

• The unstated "scripts" we fall into — the roles we didn't consciously choose, but that drive our reactions and responses in the moment

• How these roles create negative communication cycles — and why simply "trying harder" often isn't enough to break them

• How to recognize these patterns in your own family — so you can start noticing them as they happen, not just after the fact

• Strategies to disrupt the cycle — practical tools to interrupt old patterns before they escalate

Who This Is For

This workshop is for parents and caregivers who feel caught in repeating conflicts at home and want to understand what's really driving them — not just manage the symptoms, but shift the underlying dynamic.

What You'll Walk Away With

You'll leave with a clearer understanding of the roles and scripts at play in your own family, along with concrete strategies to interrupt the cycle, respond more calmly in the moment, and rebuild a stronger sense of connection.

"Executive functioning" has become the buzzword of the moment in education circles — but for most parents, it's still a mystery. In this workshop, you'll learn what executive functioning (EF) actually is, the specific skills it encompasses, and how it develops in the brain over time. You'll walk away understanding how your child's EF evolves from childhood through adulthood — and practical ways you can support that growth along the way.

What Exactly Is Executive Functioning?

"Executive functioning" (EF) has become the buzzword of the moment in education circles — you've probably heard it from teachers, therapists, or other parents. But for most of us, it's still a mystery: What does it actually mean? Why does it matter so much for how kids learn, grow, and manage everyday life?

If you've ever wondered why your child can ace a test but forget their homework at home, or why getting out the door in the morning feels like an uphill battle every single day, executive functioning is likely part of the answer.

What You'll Learn

In this workshop, you'll get a clear, practical understanding of:

• What executive functioning actually is — beyond the buzzword, and why it's become such a central part of conversations about learning and development

• The specific skills that make up EF — including things like working memory, flexible thinking, impulse control, planning, and organization

• How EF develops in the brain over time — and why it's a skill set that takes years (not months) to mature

• How your child's EF grows from childhood into adulthood — so you know what to expect at each stage

• How to support your child along the way — with strategies you can start using right away, tailored to where your child is developmentally

Who This Is For

This workshop is designed for parents and caregivers who want to better understand how their child thinks, plans, and manages daily challenges — whether your child is thriving, struggling, or somewhere in between. No background in psychology or education required.

What You'll Walk Away With

By the end of the session, you'll have a working knowledge of executive functioning that goes far beyond the buzzword — plus concrete, age-appropriate ways to support your child's growth, at home and beyond.

Why does your son thrive in some settings and struggle in others — and what does "normal" development even look like for boys?

Boys and girls mature at different rates, with different assets coming online at different times. Understanding specifically how boys mature can change everything — from how you support him at home to how you advocate for him at school.

What This Workshop Covers

This workshop takes a closer look at the unique way boys grow and mature, including:

• The developmental timeline for boys — including the ways it can differ from what's typically expected, and why "behind" often isn't the right way to think about it

• How boys' brains mature — from early childhood through adolescence, and what's actually happening beneath the surface

• Social, behavioral, and emotional development in boys — including how they build relationships, process emotions, and communicate differently than we sometimes expect

• How to support your son at each stage — with practical, age-appropriate strategies that work with his development, not against it

Who This Is For

This workshop is for parents, caregivers, and educators who want a deeper understanding of how boys grow and mature — especially if you've ever felt unsure whether what you're seeing is "typical," or wondered how to best support the boy in your life.

What You'll Walk Away With

You'll leave with a clearer, more confident understanding of your son's development — and practical tools to support him with patience and insight at every stage, from childhood through adolescence.
