Hi, I'm Dynell. Previously exhausted mom.
I am an educational therapist and mom of a college student with several diagnoses that make school/living tough. I homeschooled my son in the third grade and, more recently, in high school while working full time.
You and I are on the same journey. And, while my professional background prepared me to address his attention and executive functioning challenges, nothing prepared me for the demands of parenting a child who was constantly stressed from school.
Sound familiar? Are you exhausted, worried, or frustrated when talking with your teen about school? Does your teen often lash out or check out? I promise, there is a better way.

Parent-Teen Academic Coaching
Our coaching combines four pillars that make school manageable for teens who struggle with working memory, executive functions, and emotional dysregulation. They are (1) organizational skills that are impacted by weak executive functions; (2) self-regulation since emotions eat strategy for breakfast; (3) learning strategies to help students process and retain information, and (4) parent coaching because you are an integral part of your teen's self-esteem and success. Group coaching and 1:1 sessions are available.
On-Demand Skill Building using the 5R Learning Process
Executive functions and working memory are the workhorses of learning. When they are compromised, learning becomes very difficult. Students can learn to process information efficiently despite these challenges once they are taught how their brain learns and specific things to do. Specificity also lessens anxiety and boosts confidence. This on-demand package includes video lessons, a beautiful card deck that gives students flexibility and keeps engagement high, and instructions for our infamous Active Daily Review which raises grades and minimizes in-class stress. A bonus section "Test Taking Rx" offers strategies to combat test anxiety, forgetfulness, and more during tests and quizzes.
Every year that passes...
The day will come when your teen leaves home. Who do you want to send into the world? A confident teen who believes in their abilities and has a track record of being resilient and experiencing success? Or, a teen who has internalized failure after failure, to the point where they have given up? Are you worried that your teen will not realize their potential? Each school year brings more complex work, more deadlines, and greater expectations from teachers. The more time your teen spends failing classes and not engaging in school, the bigger the achievement gap grows. And the more their self-esteem plummets. Unfortunately, our education system does not do a good job supporting students who have anxiety, depression, or ADHD. We, parents, have to do something radical to change our teen's trajectory. If you are at your wit's end, attend our free training to see how we help parents and teens achieve lasting success.
