Children suffering from an executive function disorder may have a hard time forming relationships and being productive home and at school.

This is unsurprising, as the ability to control behavior, organize thoughts and emotions, and concentrate on daily tasks is a disadvantage to healthy development.

How We Help Executive Function

We help children with executive function disorders regulate their emotions, follow directions, and improve their organizational and time management skills. This will help them be more focused and happier at school, and in their own heads. 

Conditions That Can Come With Executive Function

  • ADHD (Attention-Deficit-Hyperactivity-Disorder)

  • Learning Disorders

  • Mood Disorders such as Depression and Anxiety

  • Brain Damage from Trauma, Strokes, or FAS (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome)

What is Executive Function

The word “executive” is linked with authority, control and organization, and that general definition carries over into the cognitive one. Simply put, executive function refers to your brain’s ability to focus and get things done. Physically, these skills are housed in the frontal lobe and allow you to pay attention, follow through on tasks, manage time, plan and organize tasks and more.
