GrowNOW ADHD

Real-Life Coaching for Executive Function and Independence

We Help Kids Grow Into Themselves.

Not therapy. Not behavior charts. Not one-size-fits-all.

At GrowNOW ADHD, we coach students to build the Internal Skills they need for real-world independence in all three areas of Executive Function: Home, Academic & Social

Using the GrowNOW Internal Skills Coaching Model®, we strengthen a child’s internal skill system and work closely with parents to make sure those skills transfer into daily life at home, at school, and beyond.

Our Goal: Help kids and teens become more independent, positive, and successful in their day-to-day lives with less reliance on adult support.

Our Method

The GrowNOW Internal Skills Coaching Model®

Internal Skills + Parent Coaching = 4 CORE Executive Function Skills

Our award-winning coaching model develops four core executive function skills:

Self-Awareness

Understanding how you think, feel, and work best

Self-Regulation

Managing emotions, focus, and behavior

Self-Motivation

Starting and finishing non-preferred tasks

Self-Evaluation

Learning from experiences to make better choices

We pair skill-building with parent coaching so the strategies transfer quickly into the
home environment. This approach builds long-term independence, not just short-term
fixes.
