Struggling with focus can affect your productivity, relationships, and overall well-being. If you experience any of the following, Attention & Focus Training may be a helpful solution:
Improving focus isn’t just about paying attention—it’s about enhancing how your brain processes and retains information. With Attention & Focus Training, you can develop long-term skills that will help you succeed in school, work, and daily life. Benefits include:
Retain and recall information more effectively.
Stay focused on tasks without constant distractions.
Improve planning, organization, and decision-making.
Reduce brain fog and fatigue.
Feel more confident in your ability to handle tasks and challenges.
Trouble with focus can affect people of all ages and backgrounds. Our training can help:
Based on a comprehensive attention and focus assessment, we’ll create a targeted attention training plan for you, no matter your age or circumstance.
Your working memory gives you the ability to hold several pieces of information in your brain at once. This ability allows you to use the information to solve a problem, plan a task, drive safely, or follow a conversation.
Everyone has a different working memory capacity. Some people can hold seven pieces of information in their working memory, while others may only hold two or three. Boosting your working memory improves your overall cognitive function, which can positively impact many aspects of your behavior.
As your working memory capacity improves, you’ll find it easier to learn, pay attention, self-manage, and resist distractions.
Cogmed training is a personalized program designed to challenge and improve your working memory. Your Cogmed qualified coach from Abbey Neuropsychology Clinic will work closely with you, providing structure, motivation, and feedback on your progress.
You’ll have 25 training sessions that are 30–45 minutes long. While your schedule may vary, five sessions over five weeks generally provide the comprehensive training you need.
To achieve optimal results, your program must present a rigorous and systematic challenge. Based on your performance, your coach adjusts the difficulty level of your software in real time. By fine-tuning your program, we make sure your training always pushes the edge of your cognitive capacity.
Your program includes:
You’ll also have a follow-up interview six months after completing your training.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nothing short of amazing, the care, attention, empathy, and avoidance of any kind of stigma, I cannot say enough good things about the Abbey Clinic. suzanne mcgovern2025-06-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Abbey Clinic! They have done an incredible job helping both our children. Our team includes Dr. Abbey, Dr. Kaberta, Rachelle, Julia, Stefanie, and on occasion, Andrew. Our children have made incredible strides in emotion regulation, reading, social interaction, and overcoming sensory struggles. The important thing to note is that doing their program requires a significant financial commitment and a large time commitment. If you are able and willing to do both, you will see jaw dropping improvements. It is hard to be patient, but following the process is worth it. We feel so fortunate to have found them. After years of other therapies and tutoring, neurofeedback has worked the very best. Teachers and family members have been amazed, and I love that my children will have a better future. As a psychologist for work, I was very skeptical about the process because we are taught that neurofeedback is quackery. In a desperate move, we reached out to Abbey Clinic and it took us over a month to make a decision to move forward. They were patient, answered all our questions, and did not pressure us. If your children are the most important people in your life, you are tired of people staring at them in public because of their needs, and you are in a position to give your kids your all, then this is what works. It has worked better than countless OTs, speech, tutors, and other intensive therapies. We have a child that now talks to us in complete sentences and has full conversations, is making steady strides in catching up with reading, and can now participate in social settings in a room with a lot of people. Our other child is steadily overcoming dyslexia. We look forward to seeing where both will go. Do not listen to all the doomsday prophet health practitioners who say your child’s life will be limited, but be patient with the process. Make a commitment for at least 40 sessions to begin with, and see where it takes you. You won’t be sorry! Kristen Chambliss2025-01-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My three kids have doubled their attention span and focus. All their grades are now A+, and behavior has been exceptional. Big improvements across the board. More substantially their confidence has increased and now have very few conflicts and get along well. The energy in the home has shifted. Comments about my kids are, “they are going somewhere…” and “what intelligent well behaved children you have.” Their prep and post brain scans were AMAZING to see. They are scientists w this stuff. Dr Abby and his team have been very hospitable, kind and helpful. They have helped my brain optimize to myself and overcome focus issues. My company last year got a valuation into the 9 figures. I know I couldn’t have done it w out them. They are an accelerator and asset for increase’s productivity and profitability as I have seen in my business. But I’ve noticed being more in control of my thoughts and emotions. One of my kids had neurological challenges which have been resolved within cycle of work with them. We have kept our kids on their program… why wouldn’t I keep my kids brain in the gym? His kids won awards for the smartest kids in California… I want to follow the legacy he’s creating… I couldn’t recommend them enough!!! Isaac Jones2025-01-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our service received today on our initial sessions preparation call was excellent. Julia did a first-class, thorough and helpful job. We were very appreciative of her knowledge and helpful approach. Donovan Byrd2024-06-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lemme just put in the review first YET i have not particiapted with their activities with Abbey. I would love to participate but just want to genuinely ask how do people afford this without insurance (500+ per therapy sessinon and ~7k evaluation) on a regular basis. Or are there any other ways that can compensate the fees. Any insights are greatly appreciated! Cancy Han2023-10-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm a successful startup founder but in the last 20 years I've spent over $250k on doctors, psychiatrists, therapists, dual-diagnosis clinics, and even crazy stuff like IV-ketamine therapy to figure out "what is wrong with my brain". The Abbey Clinic gave me the answers; now they're providing my therapy. I have yet to find a comparable clinic in the Bay Area. For me, they were truly a lifesaver. Shout-out to Dr Korsmo, Dr Barrett, Jordann, and Andrew. 🙏 Pete Curley2023-01-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Reports show tremendous improvements in simple attention, complex attention, executive functioning, cognitive flexibility and tremendous improvement in alpha and beta waves control after 6 months. We saw immediate improvement in communication after the first month. Later on, we saw improvement in attention and executive functioning. The team we are working with at Abbey clinic is professional, friendly and supportive. Special thanks to Andrew Moses who conducts the Bi-weekly sessions. He is very nice and friendly. We would also like to thank Rachel and Paula who meet with us to discuss and explain the reports, results and future plans. Sally El-Ogeil2022-12-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I feel that my experience with Abby has been excellent. The price is very very high and insurance usually does not cover it but it is definitely worth it if you have a lot of money to spare. I feel almost like a completely different person now, more focused, less anxious, and more relaxed. H S2022-12-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were fortunate to hear about Abbey Clinic from our neighbor. I had no idea how to find a therapist. Both my kids are pretty regular learners and didn't really need much support outside of school, but when my teenager's life went completely sideways junior year from a brain injury, the biggest help were the sessions with Rachael Little. The sessions taught him coping skills and methods to approach life. He is doing so well in college and still uses the things he learned with Rachael. Thank you! Greta Kim2022-05-28
