ADHD Management & Neurodiversity Support in Coquitlam

Empowering children and adults to navigate ADHD through evidence-based therapy, clinical research, and personalized executive function coaching.

Your ADHD Success Roadmap: A Step-by-Step Path

Navigating ADHD isn’t about “fixing” your brain—it’s about understanding your unique cognitive style and building a toolkit that works for you. At René Health, we follow a structured yet flexible process to move you from feeling overwhelmed to feeling in control.

Clinical Assessment & Discovery
Your journey begins with a deep dive into your history and daily challenges. Whether you are working with Maryam Mousavi Nik to understand the research-backed patterns of your behavior or Elnaz Bondar to discuss how ADHD impacts your emotional peace, we start by identifying your specific strengths and hurdles.
Designing Your Personalized Toolkit
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Depending on your needs, your toolkit might include: Executive Function Coaching: Practical strategies for time management and organization. Art Therapy & Creative Expression: Using creative outlets with Wendy Blackshaw to process emotions and reduce "brain fog". Mindfulness & Regulation: Learning grounding techniques with Elnaz Bondar to manage impulsivity and anxiety.
Implementation & Active Support
This is where change happens. In your regular sessions, you will practice new coping strategies in a safe environment. For children and youth, Wendy Blackshaw integrates neurofeedback and communication games to make this stage engaging and effective. For adults, we focus on real-world application in your career and relationships.
Integration & Long-Term Growth
As you build mastery over your ADHD symptoms, we shift the focus to sustainable growth. Our goal is for you to leave René Health not just with "tips," but with a deep sense of self-awareness and confidence in your ability to thrive.

Ready to start your roadmap?

Accessing support should be the easiest part of your week. We offer direct billing to most major insurance providers in Coquitlam, ensuring your focus stays on your growth, not the administration.

Choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision. At René Health, we offer a diverse team of professionals with backgrounds ranging from medical psychiatry and clinical research to art therapy and trauma-informed care. We recommend reviewing our team bios to see whose specialized expertise—such as EMDR, neurofeedback, or CBT—aligns with your specific mental health goals.

Your initial session is a "discovery" phase where you can speak freely in a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental environment. Your counsellor will focus on understanding your history, current challenges, and what "success" looks like for you. Whether you are an adult seeking clarity or a parent looking for support for a child, this first meeting sets the foundation for a collaborative and goal-oriented healing journey.

Yes. We have specialists dedicated to supporting children and adolescents through various developmental and emotional challenges. Our approach is often creative and age-appropriate, utilizing Play Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, and Art Therapy to help younger clients express themselves when words aren't enough. We also offer targeted support for ADHD and Autism management.

We strive to make mental health support as accessible as possible by providing direct billing for over 30 major insurance providers, including ICBC, Sun Life, and Blue Cross. If you have been in a motor vehicle accident, your counselling sessions are often pre-approved through ICBC. Our team handles the paperwork on your behalf so you can focus entirely on your recovery without upfront financial stress.

While traditional talk therapy (such as CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought patterns, specialized tools like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) are designed to help the brain reprocess traumatic memories. Our team integrates these advanced techniques—alongside Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, and Gestalt-oriented therapy—to provide a holistic approach that treats the whole person, not just the symptoms.
