You’ve talked to specialists, researched medications, made charts and schedules.
You’ve done everything they say to do when your child has ADHD…but nothing has worked.
And it’s likely because living with ADHD requires more than a one-size-fits-all approach.
It requires more than a negative,
attitude.
It requires a unique, personalized, way of understanding your child’s individual symptoms, challenges, and behaviors; one that empowers you and your child to take back the reins, turn chaos into calm, and thrive your way.
So if you’re ready to find the best way to turn your struggle into success, if you’re ready for a program that is strength-based instead of deficit-focused…
Because this is what ADHD SOS is all about. It’s a digital, educational program designed to enable parents to help their children develop skills and strategies to tackle everyday instances at home, school, or in social situations—those minute by minute, common occurrences that people without ADHD take for granted.
IMAGINE THIS.
Finding a holistic how-to that goes beyond medication, school, or home and instead focuses on the big picture and includes all the little details in the process.
Seeing ADHD in an entirely different light.
Finally getting an answer to the stress that comes with handling your child’s emotional outbursts, academic challenges, and social mishaps.
Discovering a place where all of the strategies you’ve been trying to master come together.
Accessing the “what if” life that you’ve almost stopped daydreaming about.
Partnering with a genuine, honest, expert voice that will enable, empower, and cheer you on.
Watching your child thrive in ways you never thought possible.
Establishing (or reestablishing) a renewed, functional, happy family dynamic.
Letting go of perfectionism.
What it is + What you get
ADHD SOS is parental skills training. It will arm you with tools and success strategies so that you can help your child flourish.

This module is all about deciphering emotions, expectations, and what triggers them. We will explore how emotions and expectations influence relationships. You will learn how to help your child manage their emotions, increase their self esteem, and reframe situations so they can better connect with other people and build strong, healthy, rewarding relationships.

Ooh! and we will also discover ways to weave FUN through all of it.
