TESTIMONIALS
We LOVE feedback from the families and professionals we work with.Thank you for making our ADHD Website a Success!
“I worked with Cindy during a difficult time in my son’s school career and quickly realized the importance of working through my own unexpressed emotions. Cindy helped me see this and gave me valuable tools to help the healing process. I am so very grateful for her time and guidance and happy to report that both my son and myself are much better because of it.”

“I highly recommend working with Cindy. She brings, calm, clarity, and wisdom to your family when you need it most. She understands the challenges you encounter on a daily basis and helps you over the hurdles. Cindy provides her wisest insights and still respects your position and supports you unwaveringly. Most importantly, she helps you see your child in a new light so that you can be your child’s biggest advocate. I am forever grateful for all that Cindy has taught me and my family.”
Stacey G. - (Mother of 8 yr. old girl)
“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. - (Mother of 12 yr. old boy)
“I loved the content and delivery. I felt like I was talking with a friend. Cindy you are very relatable and the connection you have with the parents is very special. There is Nothing false about you. We can tell you feel passionate about your work and passionate about helping others. I am so grateful for you and this workshop!”
Allison S. - (Mother of 12 yr. old boy)
“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. - (Teacher)
"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 understand 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."

Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit“The 1st meeting I had with Cindy I just vented and she listened. She was compassionate and knowledgeable and helped me realize I could help my son. After Cindy visited my son’s school and spoke with his teacher I knew she was an awesome asset to my son’s education. The strategies she suggested to his teacher worked within a week and he is on a path of success.”
Emily - (Mother of 7 yr. old boy)
“I have taken Cindy’s 7 week parenting course and attend 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 seem 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. - (Mother of 12 yr. old girl)
“Cindy has made the very difficult task of parenting a child with ADHD so much more manageable for me. The mantras she shares have been very helpful in enabling me to deal with the anger and “why me” feelings that often accompany having a child with ADHD. She has truly helped me “Parent the child I have” (to use a quote that Cindy often does). I feel better knowing Cindy is there when I need her.”
Joan R. - (Mother of 7 yr. old girl)
“I am a clinical psychologist and I have worked with many psychologists, social workers and therapists. I took Cindy’s 7-week course on parenting children with ADHD, and was very impressed. Cindy covers a broad range of material, and offers many practical techniques and tools for parents dealing with challenging children. But most importantly, Cindy has a gift for making parents feel understood. She helps parents look at their weaknesses without making them feel badly about their parenting. She provides a great sense of hope for parents who are feeling despairing and guilty. I so valued her coaching that my daughter and I now work with her privately on an ongoing basis. Working with Cindy has been invaluable to us and our relationship. I highly recommend Cindy’s class and her coaching to parents and professionals working with people with ADHD.”
Eve L. - (mother of 11 yr. old girl)
“My son and I are so much more respectful to one another. We are not screaming at each other, but rather connecting and interacting in a calm manner. We, as a family have learned so much! The time management skills have changed our homework hours and created an environment of love and support, not a battlefield! Thank you, Cindy!”
Susan W. - (mother of 14 yr. old boy)
“You have given me renewed joy with my daughter. Thank you so much!”
Marissa C. - (mother of 8 yr. old girl)
I enjoyed your presentation. You were engergetic, 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.
