BEYOND OUR WALLS
The resources we actually recommend.
Therapy is only one part of the work. A lot of it happens between sessions — and the right resource can carry some of that load.
Here you'll find writing from our clinicians, alongside outside programs, tools, and practices we genuinely recommend. Nothing here is filler, and nothing external is ours.

COACHING PRACTICE
Know ADHD
Why we recommend it: for clients who have the diagnosis and need help with daily execution rather than more insight. Operates outside clinical therapy — pair it, don't substitute it.
GOVERNMENT PROGRAM
Ontario Drug Benefit & Trillium
Why we recommend it: the clearest path to finding out whether your ADHD medication is covered, and what to do if it isn't. Administrative, not clinical.
GOVERNMENT PROGRAM
Disability Tax Credit & RDSP
Why we recommend it: most adults with an ADHD diagnosis don't know they may qualify. Worth reading before you pay someone to file it for you.
PROGRAM DIRECTORY
Manufacturer patient support programs
Why we recommend it: several ADHD medications have co-pay assistance that goes unclaimed simply because nobody mentions it at the pharmacy.
GUIDE
Workplace accommodations under the Human Rights Code
Why we recommend it: explains what your employer is actually obliged to do, so a request can be specific instead of apologetic.
GUIDE
IEP and school accommodation process
Why we recommend it: parents arrive at the school meeting far better off knowing the process and the vocabulary in advance.
ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION
CADDAC
Why we recommend it: Canadian ADHD advocacy with reliable, non-commercial information and a genuine community behind it.
WEBSITE
Neurodivergent Insights
Why we recommend it: clinician-written, and strong on the ADHD/autism diagnostic nuance that gets flattened everywhere else.
FREE PROGRAM
MySleepWell
Why we recommend it: evidence-based, Canadian, and not selling anything. Useful when sleep is quietly driving the executive function problems.
A note from the clinic
Why we share resources beyond our own clinic
Most therapy clinics keep their resources in-house. We don't. Good support involves more than therapy — it often includes coaching, peer community, executive function tools, sleep work, medication management, funding programs, and ongoing learning. We can't be the source of all of it.
So we maintain a directory of things we actually trust and that our clients have found useful. If something on this list helps you, we're glad. If you eventually want someone clinical to walk through it with you — that's what we're here for.
Everything in “Recommended elsewhere” is created and operated by people outside So You Need Therapy. We include a resource because we've used it, referred to it, or vetted it through professional networks we trust — not because of any commercial arrangement. We receive no payment, commission, or referral fee from anything in this directory, and inclusion is not an endorsement of every view expressed by its authors. None of this is medical advice, and none of it replaces working with a regulated health professional.
