College Orientation Sessions

College can be an exciting milestone—but for students with ADHD, anxiety, or executive functioning challenges, the transition can also feel overwhelming. Our College Orientation Sessions are designed to support college students in putting their best foot forward on campus, whether that be academically, socially, or personally.

Utilizing our EFCT methodology, these sessions help orient our college students to understand the scope of their classes, to identify campus resources, to identify the best places to do their work and study, to estimate how much time they may need to move between their classes. We will help them to build essential academic skills such as note taking and essay writing.

These sessions empower students to approach college with confidence, self-awareness, and a personalized plan for success—reducing stress and increasing independence.
