“My 12 yr old son is often poorly understood. However, his connection with Naoise was almost instant! She understood him and the way he thinks and learns, in a way where he felt respected and valued. He loved his online sessions with Naoise, and the implementation of her ideas into our everyday routines helped him to achieve happier, healthier and more balanced days in his school environments. I can't praise Naoise's work enough.“ Mother, New Zealand December 2018
"To descibre what Naoisé does is impossible but to describe the effect it has on a person is a lot easier. Naoisé builds confidence from the ground. She can help solve problems you could never put your finger on. She is a teacher, a confidante, a source of inspiration and a friend. We are privileged to know her." Irish Mother, November 2018
"When we first met Naoise, I had no idea of the huge impact she would have on our family, especially my 14 year old son.
Due to Naoisé’s support, my son has become, more confident in himself and in all his school subjects. He understands himself, his personality and others much better now.
Naoise is so approachable and a master of her vocation. My son relies on her, when the going gets tough. We have so much to be grateful to Naoise for." Irish Mother, November 2018
"My son was diagnosed with ADHD, depression & anxiety disorder at age 12, upon encountering difficulty adapting to school life at secondary level.
He subsequently struggled through school, and eventually dropped out of school in 3rd year.
We were introduced to Dr. Naoisé O'Reilly after several teachers, counsellors and guidance counsellors were unable to help. That set us on a journey that would turn my son's life around.
On our first meeting with Naoisé, I was instantly won over by her warmth, manner & ability to communicate with him where others had failed. Over a period of time I could see that he was taking on board different things she said to him about his education , which up until then he "couldn't care less about"!
Naoisé put in place a panel of wonderful teachers through home education & he eventually took on 6 subjects in the Leaving Cert. He has now gone on to study Music Performance & is the happiest I have seen him in a longtime. Naoisé showed him that just because you don't fit in a box & learn the way others do, doesn't mean you can't dream & reach your goals. I tell him everyday that his first paycheque is hers!!! " Irish Mother, November 2018
Working with Naoisé was extremely helpful in my preparation to commence a college degree. Naoisé was able to help me identify what style of learning suited me best, how to approach assignments and projects and how to get some balance in a day to day routine. Along with this Naoisé was also very helpful in giving me suggestions on different resources/technology I should
avail of while studying to help with a variety of tasks such as note-taking and studying.
