Top Ten Strategies for Parenting Kids with ADHD and Executive Function Challenges
Living with ADHD is not easy.
Not for parents, not for siblings, and most of all, not for the child with ADHD.
We have learned so much in the past ten years to help ease the path for these children both in school and at home.
This presentation from Cindy Goldrich, certified ADHD coach, covers the essential strategies parents must implement to help their children survive and thrive.
You will learn about the best supports for your child, the facts about ADHD beyond the diagnosis, and the basics about what Executive Function is and how it impacts learning, motivation, and behavior.
Let’s discuss how to best prepare them and yourselves for the journey ahead!
Skills for Success – What Parents Need to Know about Developing a Growth Mindset
Research has shown us that how we perceive our learning ability dramatically impacts our confidence, motivation, and perseverance.
This presentation explores the basics of Executive Function and lessons of Growth Mindset that all parents and educators need to know to improve students’ motivation to learn and willingness to face learning challenges.
We will explore how to help children best see themselves as learners and how to best support them in developing perseverance in the face of difficulty.
Ready, Set, Now How Do I Get Started?
Getting started – it’s often the hardest part for some kids, especially when they are challenged with ADHD /Executive Function Issues.
Through understanding the process involved with task initiation and addressing some potential obstacles, this workshop will provide tools for helping students begin their work and achieve greater success.
Student Goal Setting: The How And Why For Parents & Teachers
Students, especially those with ADHD/Executive Function Challenges often have dreams and desires, but no concrete plan to make these wishes a reality.
Setting meaningful goals is an impactful way for students to develop and improve Self-Regulation skills. In addition, research shows that when students set goals and work toward them, not only do they perform better, but they experience less stress and anxiety and they are happier and more satisfied with their lives.
This webinar will help students, parents, and educators to know and to teach both the value and the process of setting in addition to monitoring and achieving their goals.
Participants will gain specific strategies for engagement in meaningful conversations around goal setting, establish a process for choosing realistic goals, and setting the pathway for planning and monitoring the goals.
Learning Objectives:
- Set timely, relevant, and achievable priorities
- Write meaningful and impactful goals
- Learn strategies to stay connected to your goals and adjust, as necessary
- Explore visualizing and concretizing your goals
Effective Collaborating: Parent, Student, Teacher©
It is important for parents of children with ADHD to share relevant and helpful information with new teachers each school year.
This open, transparent communication allows educators to better decode and support a child’s needs and collaborate with caregivers on solutions.
This webinar will highlight tools and tips for collaborating both in person and via targeted emails because the more parents, students, and teachers connect effectively, the more likely it is that students will thrive.
In this webinar:
- Parents will learn how to gather important insights and perspectives about their children to help new teachers understand how to best connect with and support their new students
- Teachers will learn how to ask the questions that will help them to understand information about their students that will be useful and appropriate
- Teachers and parents will learn about sensible plans for managing communication effectively for a calm, successful new school year

Screenagers: Growing up in the Digital Age
I will lead parents and/or students through a question and answer session following the showing of SCREENAGERS, an award-winning film that probes into the vulnerable corners of family life and depicts messy struggle over social media, video games, and academics. Through poignant, and unexpectedly funny stories, along with surprising insights from authors, psychologists, and brain scientists, SCREENAGERS reveals how tech time impacts kids’ development and offers solutions on how adults can empower kids to best navigate the digital world and find balance.
What is ADHD Parent Coaching and Why is it Valuable?
When parents seek support to help their children as they struggle to manage their behavior and academic performance, the world of ADHD Coaching is often introduced to them either by referral from a professional or via an internet search. While they become encouraged at the possibility of support for their child, the reality is that for a variety of reasons, that child may not yet be “coachable”. As the child’s surrogate frontal lobe, parents play a tremendous role helping the child learn to manage their Executive Functioning, especially when it comes to Emotional Regulation.
But parents wonder…
• Am I enabling my child or just being supportive?
• How can I set boundaries that won’t immediately trigger my child?
• How do I impose consequences that will teach my child skills and not just be punitive?
Learning Objectives:
Set timely, relevant, and achievable priorities
Write meaningful and impactful goals
Learn strategies to stay connected to your goals and adjust, as necessary
Explore visualizing and concretizing your goals

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.
