ADHD/ADD
		ADHD/ADD is generally thought of as a medical condition (illness or defect) that requires chemical intervention to control. But what if ADHD/ADD was a response to wildly fluctuating perception? Visual spatial learners have learned to separate their imagination from their real eyes and can use their mind's eye independently from their real eyes. Other types of learners have trouble doing that! If a person could "see" with their imagination at the same time as with their real eyes so that everything was seen from two places at once, they would have really skewed perception of themselves and of the world. Compound that with an imagination that is out of control and whirling around at 4000 images per second. Is it any wonder that they can't keep their attention on any one thing for very long. It isn't that they don't have attention. They have too much attention and it is divided among hundreds of things. When we give an ADHD person the tools for controlling perception, they discover that they can control the behavior that drives everyone around them mad. Giving them control over their perception and imagination provides the same centering and calming effect that medications do.
Dyslexia
		Your search for answers ends here. When the "diagnosis" says dyslexia, or maybe learning disabled you know something else is going on. There is talent, ability, and a creative gift trying to come through all the frustration. The report cards or supervisors always said, "Potential...if you would just work harder." But you already work harder than everyone else. If more of the same were going to work, it would have worked by now. Besides, you are bored silly with more of the same. Good News: It isn't about working harder but it is about working differently. No more drills, repetition, scrambled memory, and lost attention. Create Focus Learning Therapy is a cutting edge program that maximizes your abilities and provides you with tools to correct the symptoms that cause you frustration. What you have is not a "disability" but a visual-spatial learning style that can be harnessed to bring out the giftedness.

She has worked in the classroom and home-schooled her own dyslexic children. Linda has trained teachers in brain-friendly reading and study methodologies around the world. Her approach is cross-disciplinary and research based. A holistic understanding of nutrition, natural health care and brain correction leads to significant changes. New understanding of how the brain works and interfaces with the body, and how the visual spatial learning style affects behaviour, learning, health and attention holds hope for many smart but stuck people. The Create Focus Learning Therapy will change the way you see yourself, and your reading, writing, and attention. For personalized, one-to-one discovery of how your brain works and how to harness all your potential contact Linda.
Tutoring vs Therapy
		Correct the cause instead of accommodating the problems If you were limping with a rock in your shoe, would you rather take the rock out or put in an insole to soften the limp? Most tutoring programs help learners to get along with their disability. Tutoring is aimed at filling in the gaps, drilling information into memory, and providing "tricks" or skills to remember things. Tutoring has to be repeated at every new level of information that has to be learned and tends to carry on for months or years. Learning Therapy goes to the heart of the issue and corrects the perception so that everything else falls into place. If your perception is skewed, then all of the information comes in skewed, which causes unreliable memory, sensations, and feelings. Our goal is to give you the tools to learn effectively no matter what topic or level. First I will give you some processes that enable you to gain control over how your brain receives input. Then we will build corrected patterns for all the letters and words that cause problems in reading and in thinking. Finally we provide tools to correct perception in many other areas of life. A learning disability isn't only about reading problems, that is just one manifestation of the way the brain is working. The same brain process can affect listening, balance, writing, and behavior. You can have the tools to "re-wire" your brain and take control of your behavior and your learning.
Visual Spatial Learning
		Do you think and remember in pictures instead of words? Research in brain friendly learning has exploded many myths in the past two decades. Dyslexia, ADD/ADHD, and possibly even parts of autism are simply coping mechanisms that children develop to gain control over their brain's perception that is spinning wildly out of control. It isn't an illness or a brain injury that needs to be cured. It is a superbly gifted processing system that needs to be harnessed and directed.
