Cindy Goldrich, Ed.M., ADHD-CCSP, is a mental health counselor, certified ADHD Clinical Service Provider, and teacher trainer. As an ADHD Specialist, she supports parents, educators, and other professionals to address the impact of ADHD & Executive Functioning on learning, motivation, and behavior.

Her work as both a parent coach and a teacher trainer has given Cindy a unique viewpoint regarding how each group’s needs and perspectives impact the others. She has provided professional development and parent coaching to thousands of people across the country. I have worked with teachers, guidance counselors, occupational therapists, speech/language pathologists, social workers, school psychologists, paraprofessionals, and principals—educating them about the impact ADHD and executive function challenges have on students’ ability to access and utilize knowledge. As a parent coach, I’ve benefited from a behind-the-scenes view of the struggles parents and students often face as they work to manage school expectations. Incorporating the teachers’ perspective and constraints has allowed me to guide parents by providing realistic, useful feedback—as well as consulting—to effectively integrate teachers’ concerns and agendas. Working with both professionals and parents has allowed me to create a circle of support for all involved.
