Thriving Beyond ADHD: A Tailored Journey with XQ Focus Consulting
Understanding the Unique Challenges of ADHD
Oliver was referred to us in the 4th grade after being diagnosed with ADHD. His older brother was already our client, so we were familiar with the family history. Oliver’s ADHD and executive function struggles were particularly severe, and we knew we needed a targeted approach to help him improve and thrive.
Like many children with ADHD, Oliver struggled with key executive functions, such as sustained attention and focus, planning, time management, task initiation, and organization. Traditional tutoring to tackle those challenges had failed to engage him as he had found it challenging to harness his boundless energy and creativity.
Tailoring Interventions to Individual Strengths
After a thorough intake session, we devised a unique intervention plan that incorporated movement-based activities that tapped into his love for novelty and creativity. Informed by the latest neuroscience research, we developed executive functions lessons that revolved around physical balance and cardio exercises, designed to engage his active mind and body. Additionally, we aimed to increase his attention and focus while fostering a growth mindset and a deeper sense of identity and purpose
Oliver’s response to our tailored intervention has been remarkable. He has not only developed essential executive functions skills but also has discovered and nurtured a passion for parkour, gymnastics, magic performance, photography, and creative writing. His artistic talents have blossomed, and he has even had a poem published in an anthology.
Thriving Through Personalized Growth
As Oliver approaches the end of 8th grade, he has transformed into an intrinsically motivated and organized student, equipped with the tools to thrive at school and beyond.
