Over the past decade, the ADHD Center at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York has been developing, studying, and refining cognitive-behavioral therapy designed to foster the development of executive functioning skills (time management, organiza­tion, task initiation, planning, and prioritizing). Their research supports the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral ther­apy as a viable psychosocial intervention to address weak executive functioning. We are proud to offer DFW this research based approach!

Counseling utilizing research-proven techniques helps families, children, adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, forgiveness, adjustment to change, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and bipolar disorder.

Coaching is designed to help adolescents and adults achieve more success in life. Coaching helps individuals recognize specific strengths and weaknesses, set and achieve realistic goals, create necessary structures to meet deadlines, improve organizational and time management skills, self-motivate through improved self-talk and self-observation, handle the details of daily life, communicate more effectively, and develop an improved outlook on life.

We provide two types of assessments:
•Evaluations for Adults, Children & Teens to identify or rule-out ADD/ADHD, Adjustment, Anxiety, or Mood Disorders.
•Psycho-educational Assessments (Intellect, Academic Achievement, etc.)

The goal of Parenting Success! is to provide families a research proven set of skills that can lead to less stress and more harmony within the family.

This approach is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and over 30 years of research shows that this set of parenting skills presented in this manner works for all types of families.

“Executive Functioning” is the newest and most important term for 21st century educators! We can help your education team learn how to identify and develop these important executive skills in all students: goal directed persistence, time management, planning, prioritizing, task initiation, organization, self-monitoring, cognitive flexibility, and response inhibition.

From a half-day or whole-day inservice to a long-term consultative relationship, we can provide the level of support you need.

Student Success! is a structured cognitive-behavioral approach designed to help students of all ages ”learn how to learn” and ultimately learn how to solve everyday challenges.

More than “study skills training,” Student Success! teaches your student five structured sequential steps to solving specific challenges related to his or her weak executive functioning skills and related language/learning challenges.

Instead of a product, we offer a process that starts with understanding your specific strengths and needs. Using a structured and proven 5-step approach, we can help you regain and maintain an organized clutter-free environment. Call 817.421.8780 to schedule an appointment today!
