Thank you again for such educational and well-organized instruction. At this time I actually don’t have any immediate follow-up questions. However, if and when I choose to begin parent coaching (outside of working with parents of students) I know I will be appreciative of having you and your wealth of experience as a resource. Thank you for everything, 

Robin Held, Montessori elementary school teacher, ADHD & Executive Function Parent Coach

You’ve developed a really brilliant program here. I wish I had it when my son was first diagnosed 10 years ago!

Gwynn A. (Mother and APCA Parent Coach Academy Graduate)

Thanks for the great presentation today. As a school counselor, I wanted to hit the record button and press play for my parents/teachers.

 Kim S., School Counselor

I have learned that when I don’t react or respond to every emotional outburst, fewer and less severe problematic situations (related to my child’s unwillingness, particularly for chores, homework, mealtimes and sibling interactions) occurred.

Ellen P.

What a great curriculum. Parents had positive feedback with their kids already!! I really like how it flowed. So glad I can offer support and education to parents. Thank you for putting this together.

Roberta H. (ADHD Parent Coach Academy Graduate)

I really enjoyed this training! I learned so much from you and have been reflecting on everything I have learned from the moment the course began. You are an excellent teacher and obviously a gifted parent coach. I have derived so many benefits from this training including a stronger ability to stay calm, listen to others, appreciate my strengths as a coach as well as a clinician…

Lauren A. (ADHD Parent Coach Academy Graduate)

“I enjoyed your presentation. You were energetic and informative and made the learning accessible by using many real-life examples. I walked away with greater insight, strategies, and tools I will use in my classroom. Thank you.”

Lisa – Elementary Teacher

I had the good fortune to attend one of your sessions at the NWAIS conference in Seattle and want to thank you – I learned a great deal in a very brief amount of time!  In terms of defining what the executive functions are, I have never seen a more clear and easily understandable definition and list of the distinct areas as the one you presented last week. Thank you.

Joan T., Educator

Cindy, I really appreciated the opportunity to attend this session. As I mentioned to you via a separate email conversation I learned more about myself as a result of taking this course and was able to identify myself as an individual that also has ADHD. It was very liberating, and am working on developing additional supports for myself that would help hold me accountable and become more successful both in my career and in my personal life.

Salvador L. (ADHD Parent Coach Academy Graduate)

This book (8 Keys to Parenting Children with ADHD) is a godsend for parents raising kids who have the exciting but often challenging condition called ADHD. Written by a woman who has helped thousands of parents through her enormously successful parenting workshops and classes, Cindy Goldrich’s book is an instant classic.

Edward Hallowell, MD, Renowned child and adult psychiatrist, educator, and author of Driven to Distraction

I have just completed your ADHD Parent Coach training and I wanted to say I have never been more motivated to help a community of parents/educators who are lost and not educated enough like myself (before) to know the difficulties of raising and teaching students with ADHD. You opened my eyes to so much!

Brittney White, Educator

I enjoyed your presentation. You were energetic, and informative, and made the learning accessible by using lots of real-life examples.  I walked away with greater insight, strategies, and tools I will use in my classroom.  Thank you!

Ms. B., 6th grade teacher

I knew I needed better communication skills to be able to cope with the new phase of our relationship. …I think it was one the smartest thing I ever did in my life. I feel it is going to bring me closer to my son and understand what he was trying to tell me, for a very simple reason, I now know how to communicate with a calm and collaborative problem-solving attitude instead of being a judgmental, short-tempered parent. I love my son dearly. If this will make me help him and not enable him, I will do it again and again and again. For me, that was the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Cindy.

Salvador Limon, Special Education Lead

I have read your book and have been following you for a few years and on your email list. and I’ve learned so much from you.  I especially admire how you are a big supporter of moms taking the coaching role in parenting their children with ADHD and special needs.   You are a role model for me and so many others.     I want you to know that who you are and what you do really make a major impact in the world.

Andrea M

Your presentation provided easy-to-implement practical suggestions for empowering those who work with children and adolescents with ADHD, executive functioning, and other related challenges, as well as recognizing and understanding their own as well as the students’ strengths. Our attendees were inspired and engaged. We admire how you responded so well to the questions and gave great advice, ideas and comfort with your responses.

Cindy’s Calm and Connected parenting workshop is incredible. It helped improve my relationship with my son with ADHD and our overall family dynamics. I go back to the materials often!

Jacqueline L.

I attended your conference at WSBOCES in January…loved it…and have used many of your strategies (and ways of thinking) in my classroom.

Pamela, 1st Grade Teacher

“I loved your professional development class!! I immediately started re-reading your handouts and feel very inspired. I can’t wait to implement many strategies, especially showing how the neurons connect and what is happening inside their brains. I also love the two homework handouts.”

Thank You!

Cindy, this article perfectly describes my son. If it weren’t for your Calm and Connected© class I would not have had the tools to recognize the symptoms. I’m happy to report he is now in 8th grade, has a 504, and is feeling much better about his achievements. 

Martha Y.

What a great curriculum.  Parents had positive feedback with their kids already!! I really like how it flowed 

So glad I can offer support and education to parents.  Thank you for putting this together. 

Roberta Havens, MA, Ed., ADHD & Executive Function Parent Coach

I have taken Cindy’s 6-week parenting course and attended her parent support group. They both are terrific and blend just the right amount of education, insight, support, and sharing. Cindy is a highly competent and expert coach who is able to make what sometimes seems like the impossible, possible, and even achievable. She is also a warm and caring coach who draws on her wealth and breadth of experience to help parents better understand and effectively parent their children.

Marcia H.

Thank you so much for the info in the webinar. I think it is really going to help me and my son navigate and survive homework time. Thank you!

Lisa S.

Cindy Goldrich is insightful, real, and reassuring.  If you are wondering whether your struggles with your atypical child are typical, Cindy’s seminar is the best place to start.  You will find common ground immediately with other parents who adore their children but are struggling immensely.  You will find answers to your questions.  You will find laughter and camaraderie.  You will find reassurance that you are already a good parent — one who will increasingly strengthen bonds and provide the best support you can with Cindy’s guidance, tools, and strategies.  Cindy is the best type of coach — one who provides the most up-to-date science, research, and educational insights while also providing the means to more calm and confidence that are the very art of parenting.  I encourage you to take the opportunity to join Cindy’s seminar; you will not be disappointed.

Jen B.

If it hadn’t been for your course and your outreach to parents I wouldn’t have been able to advocate for my son. Now he can receive the support he needs to reach his potential. Thank YOU!

Martha S.

Cindy Goldrich is a phenomenal instructor and made it simple to stay engaged. As a result, I earned an APCA license to teach Calm and Connected: Parenting Children and Teens with Executive.

Robyn

Thank you for helping me to appreciate my family. I left work early to see the kids. I walked in the door (washed my hands, changed, and mouth washed) and just hugged them both. Both girls said, “You’re home already?!” and added that they missed me. The dynamic at our house has changed completely. Bonus: they both told me, after the hugging and laughing, that they finished their work. I’m definitely happy about that, but thrilled to know I got to tell them “I love you” with a big smile before they could give me that information.

You have changed my life. I’m forever grateful. Stay safe! Sincerely, Erin

Erin H.

Cindy’s coaching programs are fantastic. She teaches you in a way in which you feel encouraged and empowered to try new methods and approaches to supporting your child(ren) with ADHD.
