Sleep deprivation worsens ADHD symptoms like impulsivity and inattention. Do not wait until the night before school to change bedtime schedules.

Receiving an ADHD diagnosis for your child often brings a mix of emotions, such as relief at finally having answers, worry about what comes next, and maybe even uncertainty about whether you're equipped to provide the support they need.

Many children struggle with executive function skills (EF skills), which are the mental abilities responsible for planning, organization, time management, emotional regulation, and follow-through.

ADHD and humor are often tied together. In fact, many people with ADHD are quick witted, funny, and impulsive. As an ADHD Life Coach, I am delighted to work with so many amazing children and I find we laugh often, very often. Whether it's making silly faces, me calling them out on their "stories" or just a fun way to connect; laughter and a good sense of humor usually is present with many of my clients.
