You’re parenting a child with ADHD and nothing about that comes with a manual.

They fidget through dinner. Melt down when it’s time to leave the park. Can’t finish even simple directions. And while you’re doing everything you can… you still feel stuck.

If left unsupported, these patterns can start affecting how your child sees themselves and how you feel as a parent.

But it doesn’t have to stay this hard. Occupational therapy helps children with ADHD feel more in control of their bodies, their emotions, and their world while also giving parents a clear path forward.

Try these tips at home that our therapist use to support children with ADHD:

✨A visual morning or bedtime chart
✨Picture cards with daily steps (get dressed, brush teeth, backpack on)
✨A checklist for homework time

Kids with ADHD thrive with structure that is clear but flexible.

Visual cues can help them anticipate what comes next and reduce transition anxiety.

They were doing everything they could. But every new provider seemed to only focus on one piece of the puzzle.

What they needed was someone who could truly see their child, not just the challenges, but the whole child.

Then they found Amanda, one of our certified occupational therapist, at Madden Therapy.

“Amanda is the best OT we’ve ever had. She truly sees my child as a whole, not just one issue at a time… Amanda has truly changed our lives.”

When you feel lost in the system, the right support makes all the difference. 💛

“Just give it time.”
“They’ll grow out of it.”
“Don’t overthink it.” You've heard it all before!

But your gut keeps whispering, “Something’s not right.”

Not bad. Not broken. Just… different.

Maybe your child melts down over the smallest transitions.
Maybe brushing teeth or getting dressed feels like a full-body battle.
Maybe you’re doing everything right and it still feels so hard.

Occupational therapy isn’t about fixing your child.

It’s about giving them the kind of support that actually fits who they are.

Support for their emotions. Their routines. Their nervous system.

✨ If you’ve been wondering where to start, this is it.

Our latest blog walks you through what OT really helps with, how to spot the signs, and how to trust that quiet, steady voice inside you.

Because support should never come with shame. And you don’t have to wait until things get worse to get help!

✨ You don’t have to figure out the challenges of parenthood alone✨

We know what it’s like to wonder if your child might need a little extra support and to not have clear answers yet.

That’s why we created the Confident Community Parent Newsletter. It’s a simple way to stay connected, feel supported, and get guidance from pediatric therapists who truly get it.

Mealtime shouldn’t feel like a battle.

But when your child has a hard time with food, every dinner can feel like walking on eggshells, wondering if there will be tears, refusals, or meltdowns.

You want your child to eat more, yes but deep down, you’re hoping for so much more:

💛 Less stress at the table
💛 More connection as a family
💛 Moments where you can actually enjoy each other

If that’s you, you’re not alone. Many parents we work with arrive feeling exactly this way, exhausted, guilty, and wondering if things will ever change.

The good news? It’s possible to bring calm back to mealtime.

Here’s a gentle 3-step routine we often recommend to start:

1️⃣ Start with a signal.
A short song, lighting a candle, or saying a blessing lets your child know it’s time to transition into mealtime. It helps everyone shift gears and sets a calm tone.

2️⃣ Serve family-style.
Place all the food on the table and let your child serve themselves (with your help if needed). Give everyone a little of everything, but no pressure to eat. This builds comfort and trust.

3️⃣ End with the same ritual.
Blow out the candle, clear plates together, or wrap up with a “thank you for dinner.” Consistent endings create a sense of security and predictability.

✨Progress isn’t just about what’s on your child’s plate.
It’s about how your family feels around the table.

The earlier you create calm and connection at mealtime, the less likely stress becomes your “new normal.”

📌 Save this for your next dinner, it might be the shift your family has been waiting for.

You’re waiting for clear words but wondering if your child is making progress in other ways.

It’s hard to know if grunts, pointing, or made-up words count as communication.

We help parents recognize the building blocks of speech, even before real words emerge.

Look for signs like

✨Pointing
✨Joint attention (looking where you point)
✨Babbling
✨Responding to their name

Keep a running list of these small but mighty milestones!!

Reminding yourself of these smalls wins will remind you that your child is developing communication skills! Even if speech hasn’t started yet.

Without knowing what to look for, it’s easy to miss the signs that your child is progressing.

Drop a 👍 if you’ve seen one of these signs this week. You’re doing more than you realize.

You may be wondering if there’s anything you can do right now to support your child’s language.

You don’t want to overreact but waiting and doing nothing feels risky too.

We believe early action doesn’t always mean therapy, it can start with small, intentional steps at home.

Focus on these 4 areas:

✨Talking with your child, not just at them
✨Reading books with repetition
✨Responding to gestures with words
✨Limiting screen time

Try one of these habits that feels doable to implement this week.

You feel empowered and proactive, without the pressure of jumping straight into therapy.

Without these early language-building routines, children may miss key foundations.

Save this list for everyday ideas to build language naturally in the comfort of your home.

You’ve done the research. You’ve tried at-home strategies. And now, you’re wondering if it’s time to take the next step.

Your child is still struggling to express themselves and the worry is starting to grow louder than your gut.

We help families like yours move from worry to clarity with compassionate, personalized speech support.

Start with a free 15-minute consultation. No pressure. Just a friendly conversation with a licensed therapist who can help you decide what’s next.

Without support, communication delays can impact confidence, connection, and daily routines.

And with the right speech therapy (and the right team), your child grows their voice and you finally feel supported, not stuck!

You want smoother mornings and calmer evenings but routines always seem to turn into power struggles.

Your child pushes back, you feel like the bad guy, and nothing goes as planned.

We help families create visual, flexible routines that set kids up for success without the rigidity.

Use step-based visuals (like get dressed → eat → brush teeth) instead of strict clocks.

Invite your child into the process and even let them help build the routine.

Without structure, there’s confusion.
Without flexibility, there’s shutdown.

With a gentle rhythm, your child feels safe and you start the day as a team, not in conflict.

You’re worried because your child still isn’t talking clearly, or at all, and you're wondering, "How long until they catch up?"

The internet gives you milestones. Friends and family keep asking questions. You’re left feeling anxious, behind, and unsure what to expect.

We’ve helped hundreds of families just like yours and we want you to know there’s no one-size-fits-all timeline for speech.

There are many factors that affect speech development, like when your child starts therapy, how often they get support, and what else may be going on beneath the surface.

Instead of waiting and worrying, consider a speech and language evaluation. It’s a powerful first step and it’s never too early to ask questions.

Without answers, the waiting becomes a weight. The longer you wait, the harder it can feel to start.

With the right support, many kids make amazing progress. And you get to feel empowered, not alone.

Wondering if it’s time to ask someone? Learn more about pediatric speech therapy in our new blog "How Long Does Speech Therapy Take?"

You’re just trying to get through the grocery run or car ride, and your child is suddenly in full meltdown mode.

Their system is overloaded. Yours is hanging by a thread.

We love using small sensory resets to calm big feelings, quick, simple, and surprisingly powerful.

Try chewy snacks, cold water, play dough, brushing hair, or making a bubble mountain.

Build a mini sensory kit with a few go-to tools and stash it where you need it most.

Without these tools, sensory overload turns into emotional overflow.

A few minutes of sensory play brings your child back into regulation and helps you breathe easier, too.

Sensory play isn’t just fun, it’s at home therapy in disguise!

Save this for your next meltdown moment.

You love your child fiercely and you’re ready to do something that helps, not just “hoping things get easier.”

You’re trying everything, new snacks, coaxing, rules, but the pattern remains: a narrow food list, meltdowns, mealtime dread.

We believe feeding isn’t about forcing food it’s about rebuilding trust, curiosity, and calm at the table. And our new blog dives into exactly that.

Inside the blog you can expect:

✨Signs your child may benefit from feeding therapy (meltdowns, gagging, texture avoidance…)
✨Why feeding issues often touch the whole family—not just the plate.
✨What a typical first session looks like (and how it’s not about pressure or shame).

Take 5 minutes now to click the link in bio, read the blog, and then decide if a conversation with one of our feeding specialists makes sense.

Ignoring the signs doesn’t make them go away, it may increase stress, avoidance, and “just not eating.”

You gain clarity, compassion, and a plan for mealtime that’s grounded in support, not worry.

Company History & Philosphy

Established in 2017.

I worked for over 10 years in the hospital setting, both inpatient and outpatient, serving many different types of patients. When I decided to transition to private practice, I was one of the lead feeding therapists at a local children's hospital training incoming staff on evaluation and treatment of feeding/swallowing and speech-language disorders. I established this practice in 2017 with the goal of bringing more personal, customized service to my patients and their families. I am deeply proud to have personal contact and involvement with every member of the Madden Therapy Solutions "family," and to be invited into their homes and their lives. Every member of my staff has been hand-picked by me to ensure that the quality of the care every patient receives is exceptional, and that every therapist shares the same philosophy and devotion to personal attention, genuine caring, and incredible service. Madden Therapy Solutions looks forward to helping your child and your family in any way possible!
