Supporting our kids to have more control over their ability to do all the things they need to do and want to do, within the timeframe expected, is important to continue to build their confidence both inside and outside of the classroom.

✨ Fidgeting: A Hidden Superpower? ✨

Have you ever told a child to "sit still and focus"? 🤔

What if that movement is actually helping them concentrate? 🧠

Fidgeting isn’t just a distraction—it can be a powerful tool for focus, self-regulation, and learning. 🤯

On a regular basis I try to educate parents about the benefits of fidgeting - take a look at why in my latest Substack:

Thank you! I feel so grateful to be recognized! 🫶

From the moment I learned about the Secret Agent Society (SAS) Small Group Program I thought that it was such a wonderful way to be able to partner with families to support their children’s social-emotional development.

I wanted to be able to provide this unique evidence-based program to the families I care for. Signing up for the SAS Facilitator training was one of the first things I did when I started my Development Behavioral Pediatrics private practice, and I am so glad that I did!

The program has a fun spy theme with a gamified learning component, and features lots of tools to help the kids to generalize the skills they are learning across environments.

It has been so rewarding to watch as the kids build their confidence with using the skills they learn as they progress through the program such as:
- Recognizing emotions in themselves and others.
- Using the tools they have learned to improve their emotional regulating skills.
- Learning to distinguish different types of relationships (acquaintances to best friends), and skills to make & keep friends (when desired).
- Using social problem solving skills to manage conflicts, differentiate joking from bullying, and how to handle bullies.

I would love to contact with you if you or someone you know is interested in joining me virtually or in person for one of my SAS Small Groups!

We're celebrating the first anniversary as a Secret Agent Society (SAS) Provider for Samantha Cohen, MD, Inc. As a Developmental Behavioural Pediatrician in private practice, the mother of an amazing boy with ASD and ADHD, and a person with a neurodivergent brain style, we are proud to have her as an SAS Facilitator.

She loves providing SAS in-person and virtually for families looking for a neurodiversity-affirming, fun, and effective way to develop social and emotional confidence.

Get in touch with Dr. Cohen or another SAS Provider in our global network via the link below if you would like to embark on the program with your child!

🥳 I want to congratulate all of my Jr. & Sr. Detectives on completing our 8th and final TEACH ME ADHD training mission meeting!

🔎 Our final discussion topic focused on an important aspect of self-care: managing screen time.

⚖️ We reflected on the reason we use screens, how they can affect our mood, and how to find Balance between the things we Need To Do (📚, 📋,🥗, 😴,🏃‍♀️& 🧘‍♂️) vs Want To Do (📺📱💻🎮) as part of our overall ADHD care plan.

🧐We also did some trivia questions to help with reviewing the information we learned over of the past 8 weeks, and it was awesome 🤩 to see how much my detectives have learned about ADHD!

🕵️‍♀️ My Jr. Detectives shared that they would describe this course as: “Amazing”, “Conveys a lot of information”, and “Informative”. They said that they enjoyed learning all about ADHD, including ways to help ADHD brains thrive, and that ADHD “makes me special”.

🌟It has been wonderful to see how learning about ADHD has helped my Jr. Detectives to think of themselves and their ADHD brains with a positive outlook. Myself and everyone at HQ are so proud of each and every one of our amazing Detectives! 🕵️

🫶 I am grateful to all of the families that participated for allowing me to be a part of their ADHD journey, and I am happy to report to HQ that we accomplished our mission! ✅
