My name is Rylee Oram (PhD), an educational consultant and learning strategist at the Child, Adolescent, and Family Centre of Ottawa (CAFCO). I hold a Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology from the University of Ottawa and am a part-time Psychology professor at both the University of Ottawa and Carleton University.
My work focuses on guiding clients through adaptive learning strategies designed to foster self-regulation, enhance metacognition, and boost self-efficacy. I have experience coordinating academic accommodations, assessing documentation, and delivering personalized services to a diverse range of students. My expertise in ADHD and executive functioning stems from my doctoral research and work in an ADHD lab. I utilize strategies similar to those of an ADHD coach and an Executive Functioning Coach, helping clients take control of their learning journey and facilitate both personal and academic growth. I also support parents with approaches for managing ADHD at home.
Outside of my client work, I am deeply committed to education and student support. I have received prestigious awards, including the Part-time Professor of the Year and The William Barry Award for Excellence in Teaching. I look forward to utilizing my educational experiences to support students at various educational levels, guiding them toward growth and success.
