Procrastination and Menal Blocks: The Ultimate Toolbox of Strategies for ADHD, Executive Functioning Deficits & More

• 20+ movement and sensory strategies to spark attention and action • Turnkey solutions to enhance motivation and executive functioning • Client handouts to teach self-talk, if/then plans & more to replace avoidance with action

I can’t count how many times I’ve heard it: “I want to … I just can’t get myself to do it.” They’ve got the insight. The plan. The support. But still – no follow-through. I’ve been there too. As both a clinician and a coach, I’ve worked with neurodiverse kids, teens, and adults who had the insight, the goals, and even the support – but still couldn’t move forward. And no amount of “try harder” advice ever helped. That gap between knowing and doing used to frustrate me, too. Until I realized the problem wasn’t discipline – it was how we define and activate motivation. This training was born out of the challenges I’ve faced with neurodiverse clients who were labeled “lazy” or “unmotivated” – when in reality, their brains just needed a different approach. In this workshop, I’ll show you what traditional models miss – how sensory processing, dopamine dysregulation, and executive dysfunction are at the heart of shutdowns, procrastination, and stuckness. And I’ll give you brain-based, body-informed strategies that actually work. You’ll learn how to: • Leverage brain-body strategies to prime the brain for action • Teach discipline as a scaffolded skill, not a personality trait • Rewire self-talk and shift inner narratives to support sustainable change • Boost task initiation and follow-through with behavioral neuroscience-based tools Whether you’re a mental health clinician or a rehab professional, you’ll walk away with clear, practical techniques you can use the next day – no fluff, no shame, and no cookie-cutter advice. Just real tools for real brains. Can’t wait to see you there, Justin Lyons, MS, OTR/L
