Are you struggling to stay on track amidst the hustle and bustle of New York City life? Do you feel like your ADHD symptoms are holding you back from reaching your full potential in both work and personal life? You’re not alone. Len Adler, M.D., a prominent figure in adult ADHD research and a psychiatry professor at New York University, contends that a significant majority, around 75% of adults, are unaware that they have ADHD. This lack of awareness not only harms the individuals who remain undiagnosed but also impacts their families and friends negatively.
New York City’s distinctive charm evokes diverse reactions, with some praising its vibrant pace and diversity that provide abundant work and leisure options. In contrast, others feel overwhelmed by its chaotic intensity. As the “city that never sleeps,” its constant activity and accessible 24-hour subway system represent a city embracing all, regardless of social status, embodying the ideal of a cultural melting pot. For adults managing ADHD, navigating the fast-paced environment of the city can present workplace challenges, particularly in achieving a work-life balance. Despite these difficulties, the city’s reputation as a hub of opportunity and inclusivity continues to attract attention post-pandemic. Themba Tutors, based in NYC, provides insightful strategies, accountability measures, and helpful techniques for New Yorkers. These services are designed to improve time management, enhance organizational skills, boost productivity, and effectively navigate these challenges.
Delving into the intricacies of time management within the city, we incorporate principles from Carol Dweck’s Fixed and Growth Mindset: How You Think Can Determine Your Success to help you understand your mindset and develop a growth-oriented approach.
We address modern technology’s distractions and dopamine’s role in our struggles to disconnect. Emphasizing the importance of deep work, we introduce tools like Fantastical to enhance organization and focus. Our coaching integrates mindfulness practices to tackle executive function skills, addressing challenges such as time blindness and promoting effective decision-making in goal setting. We utilize tools like the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) and understand the clinical practice guidelines to tailor our approach to your needs.
We offer practical strategies to conquer procrastination, such as the two-minute rule, and delve into the 4 principles of behavior change to foster sustainable progress. Our approach is not just theoretical; it’s about real-life applications and tangible results.
Our coaching extends beyond just building good habits; we also address breaking bad habits to promote long-term success. We emphasize the importance of non-sleep deep rest (NSDR) for cognitive function and overall well-being.
Ultimately, we aim to tackle immediate challenges and foster long-term resilience and success in New York City’s ever-evolving landscape. We’re here to help you thrive, not just survive.
TESTIMONIALS
Rebecca is an awesome tutor, and I love her. She has a lot of patience, and she is wonderful at giving examples to a student with ADHD on how to study. She was very dedicated to me and made sure I understood the material. Thanks so much for recommending her.
-Sharon S.
Alex is inspiring and encouraging. He believed in me more than I believed in myself and helped me move forward with my goals.
-R.F.
Rhia has been a tremendous help with my personal and academic goals. Addressing task initiation and planning has been a primary focus for us. Although this is still a work in progress, Rhia’s strategies, like using a calendar or log to track tasks and timing, and our weekly check-ins, have helped me hold myself accountable and reduce task paralysis and procrastination. We’re also working on exploring different study and retention techniques. Rhia helped me create a strategy for MCAT content review using videos and mixed learning styles that have been very effective! Beyond academics, Rhia has encouraged me to be more compassionate to myself and acknowledge and reward my progress, no matter the magnitude of my improvement. Rhia has also encouraged me to be more in tune with my emotions to understand the feelings that arise when I struggle with tasks and combat them. Overall, Rhia’s guidance and input have been invaluable, and I’m grateful to Themba for connecting us!
-M.U.
