Individuals

FocusNest is dedicated to providing specialized support for children (from age 3) and young adults (until 40) facing the dual challenges of ADHD and trauma.

Because ADHD and trauma symptoms often require more than just 'talking' about their symptoms, we've come up with a creative and integrated approach that helps them to explore and understand their experiences, develop effective coping strategies-be it how to use breathwork to self regulate with stress, getting better organised by befriending the part that is disorganised through internal family systems therapy, or identity exploration with art- and unlock their full potential for a more balanced and meaningful life.

Our goal is to help our client make sense of what happened to them, including uncovering patterns that no longer serve them, what they are currently experiencing and feeling, and heal holistically- body, mind, and spirit-by building and using tools for immediate and lasting emotional well-being, including having better relationships with others.

'Calmer Me, Calmer Us' - Emotional Intelligence 101 for Families

Raising kids with ADHD isn’t easy. It can leave you feeling stressed, frustrated, or even totally overwhelmed. And let's be real—if we just ignore those feelings, they can turn our homes from a safe, loving space into a tense, not-so-fun place to be.

"Calmer Me, Calmer Us" is an interactive family workshop designed to help parents of ADHD kids boost their Emotional Intelligence (EQ) skills—and bring those skills into the home. 

This workshop is all about giving you the tools to learn about emotions, handle your own emotions, and how to respond effectively in various situations so that you can lead with firm yet gentle parenting skills. These are the skills they’ll need to thrive later in life—be it in school, at work, and even in their future relationships.

So, why is emotional intelligence a bigger deal than good grades?

Studies show that emotional intelligence is a game-changer when it comes to financial success, happiness, and building strong relationships. And with our proven, research-backed methods, you’ll find it easier than ever to help your family develop these life-changing skills.

Join us, and you’ll deepen your connection with your kids while building a calmer, happier home for everyone.
