The mission of Executive Function Junction is to gather and share the collective knowledge about self-regulation and strategic thinking in order contribute to the field of executive function support.

​Executive Function Junction is a collaborative effort between an Educational Therapist and a Speech-Language Pathologist sharing a passion for understanding executive functioning, and exploring the importance of both self-regulation and strategic thinking to the process of successfully responding to life's demands. Together, Carrie Lindemuth, M.Ed./ET and Hanna Bogen Novak, M.S., CCC-SLP have created Executive Function Junction as an archive for their research, therapeutic materials, and resources.
