The 7 Phases of Transformation
EF35 is delivered through seven structured phases that build progressively on one another
Phase 01
Self-Awareness & EF Foundations
A comprehensive intake session to understand your cognitive profile, challenges, and goals, establishing a baseline for growth.
Phase 02
Working Memory Foundations
Understanding what working memory is, why it fails in ADHD, and building your personal working memory toolkit — externalising, chunking, and verbal rehearsal.
Phase 03
Time Management Skills
Developing specific executive function strategies. Here, we tackle time management, planning, and organization head-on.
Phase 04
Organising, Planning & Initiating
Decluttering and organisation systems, weekly planning, task initiation: the neuroscience and the practical toolkit - and effective checklists.
Phase 06
Self-Monitoring & Metacognition
Thinking about your own thinking, real-time self-monitoring, error correction and learning, weekly self-review, and building your inner coach.
Phase 05
Emotional Regulation & Cognitive Flexibility
Identifying emotional triggers, Pause and Plan, shifting perspectives, building resilience, frustration management, and interoception and body awareness.
Phase 07
Independence & Maintenance
The final transition to independent management. You emerge with a complete EF toolkit and a sustainable path forward.

How to Get Started

STEP 1
Intake Call
The process begins with an intake call. This is the first step towards understanding an indivudla's specific needs and mapping out their growth.

Once the call is completed, an EF35 based assessment will be conducted to establish a baseline of existing executive function skills.

STEP 6
Therapy Session
The therapist will work with the individual for consistent, therapeutic input, using evidence-based cognitive support tools.
STEP 5
Extension Tracks
Extension Tracks are optional sessions that relate to an individuals core need behind executive function challenges. Currently there are 8 Extension Tracks that are offered.
STEP 4
Personalized Pathway Selection
The therapist will help determine the specific pathway and extension tracks, if applicable.

The Personalized Pathway Model
EF35 Extension Tracks
Continue the Journey with EF35 Extension Tracks
Executive functioning challenges don’t look the same for everyone. While EF35 builds the foundation, some individuals benefit from additional support tailored to their unique profile or life stage.
Following a clinical review during the EF35 program, your clinician may recommend one or more specialised Extension Tracks. These optional modules provide focused intervention for challenges commonly seen in ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, Giftedness, college transition, or the workplace.
Each Extension Track is designed to deepen learning, strengthen real-world application, and help participants build sustainable strategies for long-term success.
Optional Modules
Our Extension Tracks
ADHD Nervous System Module
Executive functioning challenges in ADHD are closely tied to how the brain regulates motivation, attention, emotions, and energy. This extension helps individuals understand their ADHD brain through a strengths-based, neuroscience-informed approach. Topics include dopamine and motivation, the knowing-doing gap, hyperfocus, overwhelm, burnout, and creating ADHD-friendly environments that support everyday success.
Dyslexia Executive Support Track
Reading and writing challenges often increase cognitive load, making executive functioning even more demanding. This extension focuses on reducing mental fatigue through cognitive load management, external memory systems, assistive technology, self-advocacy, and building confidence beyond academic performance.
College Readiness Extension Track
Transitioning to college requires more than academic skills—it requires independent executive functioning. This extension prepares students to manage routines, deadlines, study planning, self-advocacy, accommodations, and the demands of independent living with greater confidence.
Autism & AuDHD Extension Track
Designed for autistic individuals and those with co-occurring Autism and ADHD (AuDHD), this extension addresses executive functioning through a neurodiversity-affirming lens. Sessions explore sensory regulation, transitions and flexibility, social executive functioning, masking, burnout, and sustainable recovery strategies to improve daily participation and wellbeing.
Gifted & Twice-Exceptional (2E) Track
Gifted individuals, particularly those who are twice-exceptional, often experience perfectionism, emotional intensity, and burnout despite high ability. This extension helps develop healthier approaches to achievement, manage overthinking, build emotional resilience, and strengthen executive functioning without relying solely on performance.
Workplace Executive Functioning Track
Designed for young adults and professionals, this extension focuses on the executive functioning skills required in the workplace. Sessions cover workload management, prioritization, professional communication, meeting preparation, sustainable productivity, and burnout prevention to support long-term career success.
Personalised for Individual Needs
Not every participant requires every extension. Based on the initial executive functioning assessment and clinical profile, relevant modules can be integrated into the EF35 program to create a personalised intervention plan that addresses the individual's unique strengths, challenges, and life goals.
