Bringing out the best in people with ADHD

What clients have to say

My daughter is dyslexic. She had an official diagnosis. The “experts” at the school instead of being helpful made her life at school worse. The experts did not understand why school and especially spelling test day would be stressful her. Oh no, she must have anxiety, and anger issues. I got one of the people to understand why school is stressful for LD students. But, what we wanted was our happy girl back. She is ridiculously bright but definitely didn’t feel it. Here, ISABEL was the person who really changed my daughter’s life as well as our family life. She knowingly and patiently told me about a school that is for students just like my daughter. How to find out about the school, apply and help my daughter learn to read. Isabel also, helped me deal with my feelings and move on. Now, none of her teachers report that my child is stressed. Instead, I hear how bright and diligent she is.

Over the course of teaching elementary school for over 15 years, I have seen close-up the damage that unrecognized/unaddressed attention deficit inflicts upon children. Because hyperactive children are unable to sit still and conform with the demands of school, they are frequently reprimanded and criticized by adults. With peers, they also frequently suffer negative encounters: their impulsivity can cause problems in friendship and conflicts in games and other group activities. Then, there is the area of academics. While frequently very bright, kids who can’t pay attention and sit still often do not complete their school work, can’t read for extended periods of time, and fail to get all of their ideas down on paper in assessments and writing assignments. The combination of all these negatives makes school an unpleasant place to be, and the drudgery of spending all day, every day in a setting where you feel you are no good inflicts great damage on self-esteem. Isabel knows so much about children with attention struggles, and is true advocate for them. I would highly recommend her help to any parent who is looking for advice and help for his or her child.

Out Daughter is doing amazing thanks to Isabel, helping us learn how to help her. She feels very proud that we let her do things her way, and the results are astounding. She has finished her college application and is on target. We have never seen her so happy and proud, which is music to our hearts. She is so grateful that we supported her taking a gap year.

Isabel was intuitive, warm, and validating as she coached me on my goal. She helped me to define it, resolve a conflict that was blocking my progress, and break it down into manageable concrete steps. She helped me to visualize when and where I would carry out the steps, how I would feel after completing them, etc. I felt very supported, and I appreciated Isabel’s confidence in my ability to achieve the goal.

Q: What are coaching sessions like?

When coaching, we work one on one in repeating sessions, weekly, bi-weekly or even monthly. Most clients prefer telephonic sessions but other options are available. Times for phone calls are based on US Eastern Standard Time (EST). The first session may be one and one-half of an hour. Future sessions are 30 to 60 minutes. The length of the coaching session and relationship is client driven, but typically one hour sessions work optimally and a three to six month relationship is suitable for most objectives.

Q: How long does coaching take?

Most clients find that they need at least three to six months of coaching for best results—but the client controls the relationship so the amount of coaching depends on the issue and extent of change the client desires. Think about it, you want to improve a part of your life that has held you back for years.

Q: How do we meet for coaching sessions?

Most coaching sessions are conducted over the phone. This allows both client and coach to have great flexibility in scheduling. If you live in the Metropolitan New York Area, and wish to meet in person, that is also possible.

Q: What should I expect from our first session?

For me to ask you questions and to establish what your values and strengths are, and we will also take a brief history. We will work from your strengths. The first session will establish what your goals are. Thereafter we will begin each session with our identifying specifically what issue you would like to work on that day, and then what goals you wish to address and from there begin our work and end with concrete action steps you will take until our next meeting.
