Many clinicians and educators are aware that executive functioning is about “being organized” or having good time management.
At the same time, they’re working with students who struggle to sustain effort, transition, read the room, complete multi-step tasks, and consistently don’t generalize skills. Students are referred to social skills groups because of group work issues, peer conflict, or behavior in class. Parents can’t get them out the door in the morning.
There are extreme emotional reactions, anxiety, resistance to anything new, and it often gets labeled as a lack of motivation or not caring. As a clinician, you’re expected to address this in therapy, even though it’s showing up across the entire day.
In this session, we’ll define the external patterns you’re seeing and connect them to the internal processes driving academic, social, and emotional functioning, so you can identify where breakdowns are happening.
We’ll also identify five core areas teams can use to prioritize interventions.
Finally, we’ll look at why typical service delivery models and strategies are insufficient and how to layer in additional support so it works across the day, not just during isolated sessions.
