Executive Functioning (EF) Coaching

Building smart habits for bright futures.

Youth Services (10-17)

Emerging Adults (18+)

We’re pleased to announce we are offering a new, personalized coaching program. We have both individual sessions and group sessions starting October 7th, 2025.

Executive functioning (EF) is an important part of everyday living for both young people and adults. It is often a challenge for individuals living with neurodiversity such as ADHD, ASD, or even learning disabilities! Our EF coaching sessions are individually tailored and evidence-based, using a combination of direct instruction methods of teaching and therapeutic skills to ensure maximum success for our clients.

Our EF coaching services help clients with:

Managing a work and/or school and life balance.
Developing planning and organizational skills to stay on top of things and not fall behind on deadlines.
Understanding how to responsibly use artificial intelligence and assistive technology at work and school.
Learning how to advocate for what you need to make sure that you are being supported in every environment!

Group sessions are held in-person in North York on weekday evenings. Individual sessions can be held in-person at either of our two locations or virtually via Zoom.

Assessment Services

Invest in your relationship with yourself

Understanding yourself is one of the most powerful forms of self-investment. Do it with an assessment.

Our comprehensive psychological assessment services for children, teens, and adults offer clarity, insight, and direction. Whether you're navigating questions about learning, emotions, or identity, we’re here to help you uncover the "why" behind your experiences using evidence-based tools and compassionate care.

ADHD (attention, focus, or executive functioning)
Autism (neurodevelopmental spectrum disorders)
Social-Emotional functioning (mood, anxiety, emotion regulation, and mental health needs)

Each of our assessments are tailored to your unique history—helping you or your child take the next step forward with understanding, support, and confidence.

Objective insight helps to support informed decisions. Make sure you feel prepared with our forensic services.

Capacity and competence (e.g., decision-making, testamentary capacity, guardianship)
Risk and safety (e.g., violence, self-harm, or recidivism assessments)
Diagnostic clarification (e.g., mental health, neurodevelopmental, or cognitive concerns)
Psychological injury and trauma (e.g., workplace or legal claims)
Academic or workplace accommodations (e.g., disability-related supports)
Fitness for duty or return-to-work evaluations
