Our BrainMAPS Program is a 50-session in-person program with a dedicated executive function coach at our center in Wexford, PA. We can accommodate a hybrid virtual & in-person experience for students who live further outside our current area of service (Greater Pittsburgh area).

After completing executive function evaluations to determine baseline performance & current strengths and weaknesses, students complete a series of tailored cognitive strengthening exercises in 55-minute sessions which are then leveled up or down by their coach, depending on how hard it is for them. The goal is to keep students in the zone of proximal development, always challenging them to an appropriate level (not too easy & not too hard) to facilitate consistent learning and progress.

Strengthening the underlying cognitive foundations of executive functioning for students with ADHD enables them to reap incredible benefits related to memory, attention, processing speed, and study skills.

For those not in our area of in-person service, Cogmed is a completely virtual 8-week program with similar outcomes to BrainMAPS. Instead of a coach facilitating the exercises, the full Cogmed online suite of dynamic difficulty adjusting visuospatial exercises changes the level of the executive function exercises as the student progresses in their abilities. Students get unlimited 1:1 coaching accountability calls (5-15 min) for the duration of the program with a certified Cogmed coach to check-in and keep the student on track. For those who commit to doing Cogmed exercises for 25 minutes, 5 days a week, we see amazing improvements in working memory and attention, two of the main trouble areas in students with ADHD.

Finally, our School Coaching focuses on building study and organization skills after the underlying executive functioning skills are in place. Families often do our School Coaching program following a round of BrainMAPS or Cogmed to build upon the recently gained cognitive skills and improve overall school outcomes.
