EvoLibri Consulting

Evolibri is an excellent source of information and support for neurodiverse teens/​young adults and US, the parents. I have been going back to Evolibri every few months over the course of the last five years and they are always there for me with solid advice on «what to do now» as my son moves through the different stages of growing up. He’s 18 now, and I’m at Evolibri this month for info on employment readiness and job-​hunting: how to get my ADHD & bipolar son with an autistic edge going in that arena. I can’t walk this road alone and with Evolibri I don’t: practical ideas, hands-​on techniques, and encouragement. Thank you Jan, you’re a lifesaver.

We had worked with one person for evaluation and diagnoses but wasn’t equipped to prepare our son for the work world. Furthermore, our highly intelligent adult son doesn’t accept any diagnoses. Jan was the first person in years who was able to engage him in meaningful conversation about his issues and actually had him smiling and chuckling! He set his own objectives for a job and independence but there were many steps needed before he would be ready, even for an interview! With his permission, Jan, her staff, and our other support people we had gathered all worked together. His issues were addressed one by one. Our son learned new skills, practiced them with us at home, per staff directives until the day his counselor said he was ready for an interview. This was NOT a quick process but it was a very thorough and thoughtful one. With new social skills, less anxiety and much greater confidence and understanding, he had a very successful interview and is now excited to finally have a real paying J O B! He seems empowered to take control of his own life. He knows how to find resources if he’s having difficulties. WE are THRILLED for him! Thank you, Jan and your staff! I sing your praises every day. Our son is on his way…

I’ve had so many unpleasant encounters with so called mental health professionals during my years as a human. This is what happens when you find yourself on the ADHD, CAPD, autistic spectrum, bounced here and there, no one taking you seriously, social workers telling you that you’re making it up, psychiatrists forcing drugs down your throat to «stabilize» your moods… I swore, never again.
Jan, though, completely rocks. Like, superhuman. Like, actually sees you as a real human being. Not so much about weepy emoting, but instead problem-​solving, taking care of things. Which works awesomely for me, as that’s very much my style. I wasn’t looking for a shoulder to cry on, but instead an experienced person to offer me practical advice for daily problem I tend to encounter. (noise sensitivity, problems in meetings, etc).
She’s also smart. Like, big brain, can geek out along with the best of any geeks I know, that kinda smart. Always nice to find such a human.
She has an ability to actually see you, where you are, and very clearly, very easily take the huge, complicated mess that is the so-​called failure of your life, and show you what your strengths are, and help you with the areas you’re having problems with. And she’s got a nerdy, tech industry background, so the way she did this, it matched well how I tend to organize data.
All in all, this woman and the services she provides deserves accolades, and I’m glad I found out about her.

I recently went to a consultation with Jan to find out more about therapy for my ADHD. I’m really on this self improvement kick and I randomly found her business while searching for ADD therapists in the area.
I’ve only been to the consultation, but I’m definitely impressed. She really sees how learning disorders and mental health issues connect, and provides great advice based on the issues you’re experiencing. She tests for all sorts of things… ADD, Autism, Depression, etc. I also like how she has «starter packages» which — granted, aren’t cheap — but offer savings over her typical rate with a set number of appointments, tests, and specific goals to set for the package.
I wish I had been to a place like this when I was a kid. If you have a child with ADD or Autism, or suspect they may, definitely consider giving Jan a visit.
