Helping teens build focus, emotional regulation, and independence through neurofeedback and therapeutic coaching.
When bright teens struggle with attention, organization, or follow-through, they often feel frustrated, overwhelmed, and discouraged.
We offer a brain-based, skills-focused approach that helps them succeed.
• Has ADHD but still struggles despite support or medication
• Is intelligent but underperforming in school
• Has difficulty staying organized or completing tasks
• Becomes easily overwhelmed or shuts down under pressure
• Struggles with motivation or follow-through
• Experiences emotional outbursts, frustration, or low confidence
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and there is a path forward.
Most ADHD support focuses only on behavior or coping strategies.
Forward Walking addresses both the brain and the skills needed for real-world success.
This integrated approach combines two powerful elements:
Neurofeedback is evidence-based brain training that helps improve:
• Attention and focus
• Emotional regulation
• Cognitive efficiency
• Stress resilience
• Self-control
By strengthening how the brain functions, teens often experience improvements that traditional talk-based approaches alone cannot provide.
Because neurofeedback is incorporated into services, many families are able to receive insurance reimbursement, and HSA/FSA accounts are typically eligible.
Alongside brain training, adolescents develop practical life skills, including:
• Organization and planning
• Time management
• Task initiation and follow-through
• Goal setting and accountability
• Confidence and independence
This ensures improvements translate into real-world success at school and at home.
✔ Combines neuroscience-based training with practical skill development
✔ Focuses on long-term growth, not just short-term behavior change
✔ Supports both the adolescent and family system
✔ Provides an effective option beyond traditional therapy alone
✔ Trusted by parents, schools, and healthcare providers
