Executive Functioning Skills

Lack of Executive Functioning Skills is exhibited daily.

Your child seems disorganized and scattered daily, but you know they are smart.

You wonder why they can’t remember what you tell them and why they take so long to do even the simplest tasks, like getting dressed. They can waste time like no one else, do things inefficiently, and won’t listen when you try to help them.

They often get agitated when plans change and must have so many things the same and just the way they want them to avoid meltdowns.

Your child is likely having difficulty with Executive Functioning Skills.

Building Executive Functioning Skills is essential for life.

Executive Functioning Skills are important skills that help each of us function smoothly every day. How well we use these skills can significantly influence the quality of our lives and the lives of others.

Some of the areas of Executive Functioning are:

Planning and Prioritization (how we choose what to do in what order, and then make some type of plan to do those things)
Organization
Task Initiation, Sustained Attention, and Task Completion
Metacognition and Working Memory
Response Inhibition and Emotional Control
Time Management
Flexibility
