Don't dis-my-ability

Don't dis-my-ability Don't dis-my-ability® consultation services Inc. specializes in providing counselling and psychoth As a kid growing up I always wondered what was wrong with me.

Don’t dis-my -ability is an innovative, multifaceted company that will challenge your perceptions around disability and act as a resource for individuals, parents, educators and organizations around the world. No matter how hard I tried my efforts never translated to any form of academic success. Diagnosed with ADHD (Inattentive Type) at age 30, I began taking prescribed medication and it was as if the fog had lifted and I was no longer sleepwalking through life. My brain had been woken from a 30-year nap. As the cylinders started moving and shaking the cobwebs off the pieces of the puzzle that were my life slowly started to come together. Things I was never able to achieve I could suddenly do with relative ease. I went from the bottom of the class to the top, earning a Masters of Education degree in Counselling Psychology with a cumulative grade point average of 3.8 from the University of New Brunswick in 2011. This story is as important for me to share as it is for you to hear. ADHD isn’t what’s wrong with me; it’s what is right with me. Understanding my thought process has not only improved my life in every regard but has also made it possible for me to help others understand that this isn’t the end but merely the beginning. I share my experience and expertise as someone who self-identifies as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and a Canadian Certified Counsellor through one on one counselling sessions, family counselling, coaching for business owners and employees, keynote and public speaking engagements. Please visit my like and share this page and be sure to visit my website www.ddmacs.ca for additional information. I truly believe individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Learning Disabilities, Cognitive and Intellectual disabilities are often uniquely gifted. I am passionate about helping people explore their gifts and incorporate these into other aspects of their lives.

We are excited to share that we have created our very own LEGO Library at Don't dis-my-ability for our clients both young and old to use during our sessions.

How does the library work? When a client comes in they sign out a set to build and when the session is over we put the set away until their next session where they can pick up where they left off. Once they have completed the build the lego goes back into the library for a different client to build.
