Executive Function Skills/ ADHD
ADHD and executive function challenges can make it hard to plan, prioritize, and follow through, even when you know what to do. CBT builds practical systems for organization and time management and helps you quiet the self-criticism that gets in the way.
How is CBT used for Executive Functioning Skills and CBT for ADHD?
CBT for ADHD teaches practical strategies to help with executive functioning including challenges with organization, motivation, time management, focusing and self critical thoughts.
Task initiation. Treatment teaches you how to create a sense of urgency when it is not externally created like someone else’s deadline.
Organizational skills and time management. CBT teaches you skills to work on “time blindness,” how to break down tasks into manageable bites and get things done more efficiently.
Change the negative thoughts that hold you back. CBT helps you examine self-critical thoughts like “I’m lazy” or “I can’t get it together,” which often fuel anxiety, avoidance, and low confidence.
Practical, structured, and built for real life. Sessions are goal-focused and time-limited, with tools and between-session practice that you can use at work, at home, and in your relationships.
