Davis Methods
@davismethod.bsky.social
Strength-based solutions for dyslexia, autism, ADHD & more, created by a neurodivergent pioneer who lived it. We don't "fix" differences, we harness them as gifts. Our one-on-one programs & workshops provide tools that work WITH your thinking style.
Your neurodivergent brain is not broken.
You don't need to be 'fixed.'
You need to be understood.
Traditional workplaces and education institutions weren't built for minds like yours. That's not your failure - it's the system's.
This weekend, celebrate what you CAN do. Notice your creativity.

'Last December, I watched my daughter avoid every Christmas card, every gift tag, every note from Santa. Reading was painful for her.
This year? She read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' to her little brother. Out loud. With confidence.
We finally stopped forcing phonics on a picture-thinker.'

Our methods were created by a neurodivergent individual FOR neurodivergent individuals. Ron Davis transformed his own experiences with autism and dyslexia into solutions that work from the inside out, honoring natural thinking styles rather than forcing conformity.

"Why does time feel like a lie when you're neurodivergent?"

5 minutes feels like 30.
An hour disappears in seconds.
"I'll be ready in 10 minutes" = 45 minutes later.

This isn't poor time management.
It's a fundamental difference in how your brain experiences time.

Meet your speakers for this weekend's Live Davis Autism Weekend. 🎤
💜 Dolores Gage, (Spain). Mother. Davis Facilitator. Trilingual. "The Neurodivergent Thread" What if autism, ADHD, dyslexia aren't separate conditions? What if they share one root cause: disorientation?

Director of Davis Autism International. Former educator. Workshop presenter & facilitator. Melanie Curry spent years in classrooms watching bright, capable students slip through the cracks.

Traditional teaching methods weren't reaching neurodivergent learners, and she had no tools to help them.

Why clay? 🏺

✨ Ever wonder why we use clay modeling in our programs? It's creative and fun, more importantly, it's neuroscience in action! When learners physically create letters and concepts with their hands, they build understanding in ways that visual or auditory methods alone can't achieve.

If you've blamed yourself for this, you need to read Stephen Martin's take on dyslexia comprehension.

Your brain isn't broken - it just works differently.

Will my child ever be able to communicate their needs?

You can see the bright, intelligent essence inside, but communication seems impossible.

Cathie's son was non-speaking at age 2. Unable to repeat words in therapy. She sought many therapies between 2003 and 2011 with little success.

"ADHD isn't a lack of focus. It's focus in ALL directions at once."

Your brain isn't broken.
It's taking in everything, everywhere, all the time.

Most ADHD treatments try to limit or medicate that attention.

Davis Programs for ADHD teach you to DIRECT it.

To our neurodivergent community and those who support them:

However you're spending this holiday season, we hope you find moments of peace.

Your brain isn't wrong.
Your needs aren't too much.
Your boundaries matter.

Take care of yourselves. 💜

Holiday season and neurodivergent brains don't always mix.

Changed routines.
Overwhelming gatherings.
Sensory overload.
Social expectations.
"Why can't you just be normal for one day?"

If the holidays feel harder for you or your neurodivergent loved one, you're not imagining it.

What if your child’s defiance isn’t deliberate misbehaviour?

Tania Blackmore-Squires is both a parent of a child with ODD and PDA traits and a Davis facilitator. She knows the complexity of supporting these children and an understanding of the daily challenges families face.

"Wait, I have ADHD AND dyslexia AND I'm probably autistic?"

You're not alone.

Most neurodivergent people don't fit into one neat box:
→ 40% of dyslexics also have ADHD
→ Many autistic people have dyslexia
→ Overlapping traits are the norm, not the exception

"I avoided reading for 15 years. Now I can't put books down."

This is what transformation looks like with the Davis Method.

Not accommodation. Not coping strategies.
Real change. Lasting confidence.

Every story starts with someone who thought they'd never read comfortably.

Quick question for our neurodivergent community:

What's the WORST advice you've ever received about your learning challenges?

We'll start:
"Just try harder."
"You're not applying yourself."
"Have you tried reading more?"

Your turn. Drop it in the comments. 👇

Why do words like "the" and "was" trip up dyslexic readers? 🤔

Ron Davis calls these "trigger words" - not because they're emotional triggers, but because they're invisible to our picture-thinking brains.

Think about it: You can picture a dog, a house, running. But what does "the" look like?

🌈 'I will be forever grateful for the tools my son now has to help guide him throughout his lifetime.'

This 19-year-old completed TWO Davis programs - one for autism, one for dyslexia. His mother shares:

"I can read 'hippopotamus' but 'the' makes my brain shut down."

Sound familiar?

Here's what's happening:

Dyslexic brains think in pictures. Big words like "hippopotamus" create clear mental images. But small words like "the," "put," "of"? No picture exists.

📚 From 8th grade reading level to 10th grade in ONE WEEK.

'This is such an AWESOME program! We are VERY pleased with our daughter's results. She began her program reading at an 8th grade level and by the end of the week she is now at a 10th grade (independent reading) level! It is simply AMAZING!
