Core ADHD Community Training Programs
Parent Behavioral Training (PBT)
Learn positive reinforcement, consistent routines, and calm-response techniques in small-group or one-on-one sessions. Parents leave with printed playbooks and 24/7 WhatsApp support.
Teacher & Educator Workshops
Two-hour or full-day workshops give teachers ready-to-use classroom strategies—seating charts, movement breaks, and token economy systems that align with CBSE, ICSE, and IB curricula.
Child Social Skills Groups
Groups of 4–6 children meet weekly to practice turn-taking, active listening, and conflict resolution through games and role-play led by trained facilitators in Child Social Skills Groups.
Family Therapy & Support
Monthly family sessions in our Family Therapy & Support program strengthen communication, reduce sibling tension, and create shared goals that everyone can support.
Behavioral Interventions We Use
- Positive Reinforcement Strategies Catch your child “doing it right” and reward immediately—stickers, extra playtime, or praise.
- Token Economy Systems Children earn points for target behaviors and trade them for privileges, building motivation and self-discipline.
- Self-Monitoring Tools Simple checklists and apps help older kids track focus levels, emotions, and homework completion.
- Mindfulness & Emotional Regulation Five-minute breathing exercises or guided imagery lower impulsivity and improve emotional control in real time.
Program Benefits & Outcomes
- Improved Academic Performance: 78 % of children show at least one-grade-level jump in reading or math within six months.
- Reduced Disruptive Behaviors: Parents report 60 % fewer tantrums or meltdowns after eight weeks.
- Enhanced Parent-Teacher Communication: Weekly digital logs keep everyone on the same page.
- Stronger Peer Relationships: Children make an average of two new consistent friends during group sessions.
