High School Students with ADHD:
Develop the Skills to Thrive in Group Therapy
Mindful Speech offers a group for high school students with ADHD (14-18 years old) to help students build skills necessary for success in high school and beyond.
In these groups your teen will gain:
Increased confidence in reading, writing, listening, and speaking.
Independence, self-knowledge, and clarity around priorities and an understanding of how to reach their goals.
More sophisticated language and executive functioning skills necessary for college and/or the work force.
A community of peers that will help your teen realize that they are not alone in their struggles and triumphs.
Are you worried that your teen with ADHD is not going to succeed in high school and beyond because they struggle with reading, writing essays, and planning?
Behind on submitting assignments,
stressed and overwhelmed by writing essays,
and begging you to buy materials for a project due tomorrow
again.
Sound familiar to your teen?
If your teen is falling behind because they are struggling with executive functioning, reading, writing, speaking, and understanding you might be feeling worried and confused about how to help.
I believe that any student can learn how to read, write, and communicate confidently.
Hi! I’m Hollis, and I help teens communicate with confidence by helping them with reading, writing, speaking, listening, and executive functioning.
I understand that you might be feeling worried that your teen with ADHD is struggling. You might even be feeling at a loss for how to help your teen who is falling behind at school or losing confidence.
The teens and adults I have worked with have learned to thrive with ADHD - just like your teen will.
What you can expect from the High School Students with ADHD Group from Mindful Speech

Community
Your teen will have a community of other high-school students with ADHD to work with so they don’t feel alone. They will learn a lot about ADHD and how they can succeed with it.
Learn Skills
Together with their peers, your child will work on the language, reading, writing, and executive functioning skills teens need to thrive in high school (and beyond).
Practice in a Welcoming Environment
Your teen will be in a community of other teens with ADHD so they get the experience of helping and being helped at the same time.
They will practice reading, writing, planning, and communicating in a welcoming environment.

The High School Students with ADHD Group

The Thriving with ADHD Blueprint
Step 1: Schedule
In your free consultation call, we’ll talk about what you are hoping your teenager will get out of therapy so you can know if this group is the right fit for your family.
Step 2: Build Skills
We will meet every week, either in our group or individually, so your teen can have the accountability they need to become a confident communicator and build independence.
Step 3: Thrive with ADHD
Your teen will learn how to thrive with ADHD. They will have the tools they need to succeed in writing essays, planning for projects, applying to college, and so much more.
Have concerns about your teen starting group therapy for ADHD?
“Hmmm I’m not sure, let me think about it and come back later…”
Worried about the price?
Joining a group does cost money and that can be a hard decision for many to make. However, intervening early can help your teen build a better relationship with reading, writing, and learning in general that will last their lifetime.
It may also end up being more expensive to hire a range of tutors when they aren’t working on the underlying issues.
Think you don’t have the time?
I understand that speech-language therapy might be yet another item on a to-do list that is already long. However, having a designated time every week when someone else is helping your teen might be worth it.
It saves you time researching what will help your teen and trying to teach them yourself. I do the research for you! You can spend the time you have with your teen connecting and having fun. Let me take this task off your plate.
Worried that this won’t work because
nothing else has?
In our initial consultation, we will make sure that this group is the right fit for your teen. If it’s not, I’ll help guide you to other professionals so we make sure that speech-language therapy is successful for your family.
This consultation is completely free and there is no pressure to schedule after our consultation.
