About Me
I'm Thom Powers — a practicing School Neuropsychologist working in Vermont schools. Most days I'm doing evaluations, sitting in eligibility meetings, and trying to hand families something they can actually use on Monday.
Powers Cognitive Tools started because that last part kept failing. The research on executive function is strong. The tools built on top of it are usually either too clinical for a kid or too vague to be worth anything. So I started making the middle thing.
Everything here is built from a practitioner's chair, tested against real caseloads, and written in plain language on purpose — for the parent at the kitchen table as much as the psychologist writing the report.
