Coastal Neuropsychology Services

After completing an ADHD and ADS assessment, I offer clients two to three follow-up sessions to provide ongoing support and guidance in managing symptoms and identifying strengths. This approach is tailored to each individual’s unique needs and circumstances, focusing on empowering clients to effectively manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life. I collaborate with clients to develop a comprehensive management plan, which may include:

Neuropsychoeducation

I provide education on the neurobiological basis of ADHD and ASD and how neurodiversity can impact cognitive processes such as attention, impulse control, and executive functioning.

Behavioural Strategies

I identify and implement behavioural strategies to improve focus, organisation, and time management. This may involve setting up structured routines, using visual aids, and breaking tasks into manageable steps.

Coping Skills

I teach coping skills to manage impulsivity and emotional regulation, such as mindfulness techniques, relaxation exercises, and therapy to challenge negative thought patterns.

Study Accommodations

I plan and document requests for additional accommodations and support services within educational settings, such as extra time for assignments or exams, preferential seating, and access to a quiet space for studying.

Lifestyle Modifications

I recommend lifestyle modifications, such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and adequate sleep, which can help manage ADHD and ASD symptoms and improve overall wellbeing.

Parent Support

I guide and support parents on how to best support their child or young person, including effective communication strategies, affirming behaviour strategies, and setting up a supportive home environment.
