See how your brain actually works

A detailed, personalised picture of your 14 executive function skills, in around 25 minutes.

You probably already know which parts of your life come easily and which feel like swimming uphill. You can plan a complex trip but not next Tuesday. You hold a big idea in your head while losing your phone three times before lunch. You can write a long, detailed report but never quite get round to a birthday card.

That is not a character flaw. It is a pattern of how your brain manages attention, memory, planning, emotion and action.

Once you can see exactly which underlying skills are doing the work, where the bottlenecks are, and how they interact, the things that have always confused you start to make sense.


What you get

The Executive Function Skills Strength Profile is a 140-question self-assessment covering 14 individual skills across five core areas. It takes most people 20 to 25 minutes.

When you finish, your full results appear on screen straight away. A copy is also sent to your email address.

Your results include:

  • A score for each of the 14 executive skills, out of 50
  • A score for each of the five core capacities, with reference bands to help you interpret them
  • An overall profile score out of 700, with guidance on what the range means
  • Four pattern scores showing how clusters of skills interact in your daily life
  • Practical strategies for any areas where you are scoring below 30
  • A full PDF copy emailed to you to keep

Who this is for

This Profile is for any adult who wants a detailed, honest picture of how their brain manages attention, memory, planning, emotion and action.

People who get the most from it tend to be:

  • Adults with ADHD who want a more detailed view of how their brain works day to day
  • Adults exploring whether ADHD might explain longstanding patterns
  • Neurodivergent adults curious about their cognitive profile
  • Adults recovering from burnout, illness, perimenopause, grief, or any season that has changed how their brain feels
  • Adults navigating demanding or high-pressure careers who want to work with their brain rather than against it
  • Anyone who wants language and detail to describe what they have always sensed about their own brain

It works equally well as a standalone self-knowledge exercise, a coaching intake tool, or something to share with people close to you.

What clients say

“Over the past year, my ADHD coaching journey has been both insightful and empowering. It has helped me better understand how my neurodivergent traits show up in daily life and has equipped me with practical tools and strategies to support focus, productivity, and self-awareness.”

The science behind it

The Profile is grounded in three of the most established executive function models in the field:

  • Thomas E. Brown, Ph.D. (Brown ADD Rating Scales)
  • Russell A. Barkley, Ph.D. (Unified Theory of Executive Functioning)
  • Peg Dawson, Ed.D. and Richard Guare, Ph.D. (Smart but Stuck / Executive Skills in Children and Adolescents)

It covers every executive skill identified across all three models, including the full Brown Effort cluster, which most assessments leave out.
