What Could 2026 Look Like for Your Neurodivergent Teen?
Happy New Year!
At this time of year, there’s a lot of talk about vague resolutions — getting organised, being more patient, doing better next term. I want to pause and speak directly to parents of neurodivergent teenagers.
If that’s you, here’s a different question:
What could your family’s 2026 look like if you committed to doing things differently?
Parenting a neurodivergent teen can feel relentless
You may be exhausted from reminding, managing emotions, and worrying about whether your child’s struggles with organisation, focus, or emotional regulation will ever ease.
You might also be feeling the wider impact — on your own wellbeing, on family relationships, and on the constant background anxiety about what the future holds.
I see that.
What one term of executive function coaching could change
This isn’t about fixing your child or achieving perfection. It’s about building understanding, skills, and confidence.
January – We explore what’s really going on for your child and how their executive function challenges show up day to day.
February – Your child begins to understand how their brain works and starts using strategies that actually fit them. You gain tools to reduce tension and improve communication at home.
March – New habits start to form around planning, focus, and emotional regulation. Your child grows more self-aware and more confident in expressing their needs.
April – By the end of term, your child feels calmer and more confident, with practical strategies they can use independently. Family life feels less conflict-driven and more connected.
May and beyond – Motivation improves, work is submitted more consistently, and your child is better equipped not just academically, but emotionally too.
A note of honesty
This work takes commitment. Real change happens between sessions, not just during them.
But it is achievable. I’ve seen these shifts happen for families I’ve worked with over the past three years, and I believe it’s possible for your child too.

Don’t let this be another year of vague hopes.
Make it count.
