Help for Kids Who Struggle in School at Brain Balance of North San Antonio
We Help Kids, Teens and Young Adults Build the Focus, Behavior and Social-Emotional Skills Kids Need to Thrive in School.
At Brain Balance of North San Antonio, we’ve made it our mission to help frustrated families with a holistic, drug-free program that goes beyond the more mainstream approaches you may have tried. Brain Balance is an integrated approach to helping kids, teens, and young adults improve the attention, focus, behavior and cognitive skills needed for success in school.
Is Your Child's Brain Optimized to Learn?
If practice isn’t creating proficiency in school for your child, this could indicate a developmental immaturity in the brain that is disrupting the learning process. When it comes to learning, there are so many separate brain functions that all need to work together in perfect harmony to succeed. The brain needs to be able to pay attention, block out distractions, and process auditory and visual information while relying on working memory so that you can take the information and apply it when needed. A disruption in any one of those areas can impact the whole.
Signs that your child may be struggling from developmental immaturity include:
- Meltdowns
- Task avoidance
- Procrastination
- Trouble retaining information or details
- Difficulty with retention or comprehension of academic information
- Inconsistency in scores, tests or other outcomes
- Persistent complaining about going to school
- Falling behind
At Brain Balance of North San Antonio, our program helps students close these developmental gaps to ensure their brains are ready to learn.

Jack's Story
"He has had a tricky time in school. He struggled a lot with learning . . . [Now] I don't have to wonder 'what's going to happen today?' or 'is he going to come out of school crying or feeling overwhelmed?' . . . there's just no words as a parent and as a mother for the comfort you feel knowing he's going to be ok."
Elizabeth's Story
"I was never the type of student where I could just go to class and then everything would just stick to me. I had to go home and re-study and re-teach myself. After I took Brain Balance . . . I feel like I am paying attention and I don't zone out as much. I felt like a different person."
Wes' Story
"We noticed when he started kindergarten. . . how hyper he was, he was inattentive, he couldn't focus . . . and he wasn't able to relay the information in his brain to his teachers . . . Since we started Brain Balance . . . He is much more focused in school, in sports, at home. His confidence has gone through the roof."
DeAngelo's Story
"Not being able to comprehend, whether it was math or reading. Handwriting, just fine motor skills weren't there. I didn't need a tutor, I needed someone to change behavior, and that's what Brain Balance is . . . we were Fs and Ds now we're As and Bs."
Emmalynn's Story
"My daughter had focus issues. . . especially at school. She had a lot of impulsivity. She was starting to fall behind. . . bringing a lot of homework home. She has flourished this year at school and we are so excited to see her continue on and be the best version of herself."
Dylan's Story
"Test-taking was really hard because I didn't focus on the test, I'd focus on what my friends were doing . . . Now that I've gone to Brain Balance . . . I'm not really fidgety anymore and I'm more focused on my work than I am on my friends and I've really improved in school."

Parents see the difference
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Brain Balance and our experience with them so far. My son A. Benefit so much from their program and we have seen great improvement with his ADHD symptoms; his is more calm, more able to control his emotions, able to focus better and over all is doing better socially in class. Brain Balance’s holistic approach really makes all the difference. The support and wealth of resources they offer to help us keep up the work at home and follow the right diet really is so valuable. The entire staff is so kind and supportive to both parents and the children. Such a wonderful and empowering environment that teaches kids to understand how to building lasting healthy habits that supports them with their differences and struggles. Absolutely love BB and I am so happy we found them!”
“We enrolled our son in the program last school year and have been very happy with the results! I love how the program does not believe in medication and assesses the child holistically. The staff was very supportive in answering our questions and set all of us up for success! My son has made so much progress and is now better at focusing and we are now more knowledgeable about what makes him tick, so we can support him as well. I highly recommend brain balance. It is a big time commitment, but worth it when you see your child progressing forward and thriving!”
“I have two sons that attend, both to address symptoms regarding ADHD. Zachary has improved on his focus and attention dramatically and is able to express his emotions clearly, which was a struggle for him prior to his graduation from Brain Balance. I cannot wait to to see the improvement his brother Patrick makes on his focus and attention as he progresses through the program. They both are leading happier and confident lives as a result of this program! I am very grateful to the coaches and I love seeing the positive changes in my boys. Thank you Brain Balance!!!”
“Brain Balance changed our whole family’s lives. Our daughter was struggling in school and on several medications for several years. We were falling apart dealing with meltdowns and explosive behaviors over the smallest things. Getting through each day at school was a struggle. We had seen many specialists and doctors over the years and none of them even pretended to understand our situation the way that the people at BB really do understand. They were able to not only help us figure out what was going on, but they also gave us the proper guidance to fix things. And it worked! Our daughter is the same witty, charming character she’s always been but now she’s not struggling through every day. She’s happy! We’re all so grateful for what Brain Balance has done for our family. This program is not magic, it’s work... but it works!”
“When I was looking up brain balance, I was looking for something for my son. I don’t believe in medication and some people just don’t understand that. I wasn’t sure I was going to find what I was looking for here, but I certainly was surprised to find out that this would be the place where my sons life would be made better. In the first week, I have seen changes in my son: emotionally and behaviorally. I am so happy with the progress my son has made thus far.
The staff are all so friendly and caring. They honestly understand the concerns I had and had an answer and a solution as to “why” these things were happening. There was no doubt in my mind; I know that brain balance works!”
“I am so thankful for the Brain Balance team! Dr. G and Tayjha were wonderful resources who made themselves available whenever I had questions or concerns. The program helped my daughter not only with her learning needs, but I witnessed significant improvement in her behavior, coordination and confidence as she went through the program. Dr. G also provided insight and guidance as we navigated the public school learning disability identification process, which was a huge benefit to me. I am very grateful to have found a program that didn't rely on medication or quick fixes, but focused on the long-term health of the whole child - mind, body, spirit, nutrition and activities.”
“When our son began Brain Balance it was our last resort to helping our son. For years he had tutoring we sent him to summer school every year since 2nd grade, he was on medication for his ADHD for a couple years and nothing seemed to help him. He was struggling in school, he was behind on work constantly, poor test scores, and his teachers were fed up and he was not happy. Fast forward to a new school year and my son is doing so well. He is keeping up with his work, he talks about what he’s learning which he’s never done before. The best part is to get emails from his teachers saying he’s a joy to have in class. My son is a completely different kid in a very good way. He’s still the same sweet boy he’s always been but this change with school is truly amazing. We can’t thank Brain Balance enough.”
“This place changed my son! Everyone that knows him has mentioned these positive changes. He is more focused, less impulsive, and his grades have dramatically improved. We’re so grateful we found this program. For a bit we were overwhelmed and stressed out by our son’s behavior. Today, we are happily stress free and he has very minimal behavioral issues. We sincerely wish we had discovered this program earlier in his life, but thrilled we found this program at all. We have learned so much about our son’s brain and how it truly functions. We’re so happy that he’s on the right track with no need of medication. We highly recommend Brain Balance to everyone.”
“Brain Balance certainly helped our two girls. Before we went through the program our oldest who has adhd would be so hyperactive she was hurting herself at home. We knew she would not be able to concentrate well I school. Thanks to brain balance, she is doing very well in school, and even sits and does intricate projects on her own. Then entire staff was fantastic. Highly recommend for children in this situation.”
“Brain Balance really helped my 14 year old son. They gave him really useful skills to help him succeed as a student. They taught him these skills without him having to take additional medication for his ADHD. I'm really pleased with the results!”
“Our experience with Brain Balance Redlands was exceptional. When we started in September our son was having trouble with friends and school. And was running out of class when he didn’t want to do something or got upset. We finished our program in March. Our son is not running out of class. He is more able to understand why he can’t do something’s and why. He is doing much better socially. We would recommend this program for others with ADHD and social problems. The staff was wonderful.”
“I was hesitant to have my son to take this program because we had spent money and time in so many other things and medications trying to help him and nothing seemed to work. I’m glad we decided to try it because it changed his life. Dan and his team are awesome in what they do and super patient with the kids. He was struggling with school grades and social cues, depression, anxiety, ADHD and dislexia, it was a lot! He has made a lot of progress and his self confidence and self esteem are up there so we’ll done guys! We appreciate all you did for him!”
“We are incredibly thankful for Brain Balance. We found Brain Balance after looking into therapies to help with ADHD. We weren’t really sure what to expect but felt like we had to give our son every opportunity to excel. We have been amazed at his progress. When we started the program, we were working with his school to be evaluated for an IEP and a 504 plan and by the end of the program his school said he no longer needed either! His confidence at school has sky rocketed and his teachers are thrilled with his growth and progress. The program takes time and commitment but it is so worth it! The staff is absolutely wonderful and they too want the best for your child!”
“Everyone is so nice and very kid friendly. My 14 year old daughter had a blast during the initial assessment and couldn't wait to go back. The director worked with us to find tuition assistance. This is the holistic approach I have been looking for to help my daughter with her ADHD as medications havent worked.”
“We came to Brain Balance because our son with ADHD and Sensory Processing issues struggled in all areas, at home, at school and in friendships. We had tried everything; occupational therapy, play therapy, counseling, positive parenting, medications, reward charts, apps for ADHD, nothing changed his behavior. Brain Balance has helped our 10 year old son with perspective taking, empathy, not just yelling no at everything and shutting down. He is doing better at school, at home and learning how to do better in friendships. He is able to regulate his impulsivity better and manage himself with tools he’s learned when he’s deregulated. Teachers noticed improvement with his ability to focus and stay on task. We have noticed he is happier, more loving towards us and empathetic toward others. I recommend the Brain Balance journey. It has helped our family become whole again.

“Brain Balance was a life changer for our son! Before program he couldn't finish a sentence before another thought interrupted it; he had trouble reading and with handwriting. The time and effort we spent with Brain Balance helped him achieve a 95th percentile on STAAR tests but more importantly we now have a son who can manage life and all it's challenges medication-free. There are no limits for him!”
“We LOVE Brain Balance and all that it has done for not only our son, but the impact it has had on our entire family! Does it cost money? Was/Is it hard financially sometimes? Absolutely! BUT, our son is not wearing a bandaid by taking medication and our entire family is learning new eating habits, triggers, coping mechanisms, and more than anything hope for a better future for our son! It takes commitment and recognizing there will still be good days and bad days. Celebrate the good times/days, identify differences or triggers for the bad, and keep going! There are endless resources in the program with recipes to help with eating habits, a community/family Facebook group that we can all share our experiences, struggles, successes, ask questions, etc. and so much more. I do not regret for one minute, the cost of the program, which we are doing a payment plan for (many options) and would like to say thank you to our amazing Henderson Brain Balance family!”
“Brain Balance was the best thing we ever did for our son Caleb! The staff was amazing at working with him and a game plan for his weekly sessions. They took time with his development mentally and physically as well as getting to know him personally. My husband and I saw a major improvement with Caleb's grades in school as well as his maturity. He also improved with his golf game as well as other sports activities. Our son enjoyed going to sessions weekly as much as we enjoyed seeing the progress in him. I would recommend Brain Balance as a parent of an ADHD child with success in the program.”
“My wife and I were looking for something that could help our son without looking to medication. We heard about Brain Balance on 95.5 The Fish and gave it a shot. We are so thankful for Nate, April, Melissa and the entire team. We have seen so much improvement with our son and we are so blessed to have found Brain Balance. I would recommend Brain Balance to anyone with a child who might struggle with focus, anxiety, behavior and other social skills.”
“We are so thankful for the wonderful team at Brain Balance. They helped our daughter with her focus issues and she loved working with all the employees. They’re supportive, talented, professional and friendly. I highly recommend checking them out if your child has ADD, ADHD or any other learning issues.”
“We enrolled our 5 year old daughter in brain balance after having issues with ADHD, sensory, and processing which this combination created a lot of unhappy moments and stress. She is ready to start Kindergarten this coming fall due to her progress in the program. Our family life at home is 1000% better as she is able to better understand the world around her at an appropriate age. Life in our household was very difficult prior to this program and we are beyond pleased with the results.”
“Brain Balance has been the best decision we could've made for our son. The progress that he has made and has continued to make has been amazing. His ADHD has been under control with all that he has learned from brain balance. School is easier, home life is easier, just all around easier. It is a bit pricey but hearing how good my son feels and him saying he's proud of himself is all worth it. All of the teachers there are awesome!! Thank you so much Reylene Coronado for the referral.”
“This company saved my family. Our daughter was 8 yrs old. Has ADHD and ODD. (Oppositional defiance disorder)
I was recommended by a friend who went through the program. It's time consuming, but you get what you put into it. I thought my days with her were never going to get better. Her counselor at the time suggested mental hospitalization. Brain Balance evaluated her and said "these are the symptoms she's having, this is why. This is what we can do to help her improve, if you work with our program, you WILL see results" a company GUARANTEEING results. They were right. I feel like I got my little girl back. I'm constantly recommending this company when I see fit. They are family to me.”
“My son had behavioral issues to include impulse control, focus and a lack of learning desire. I considered medication at one point because I was at a total loss. During the course of his BB sessions, I watched him go from the bottom of the behavioral chart at school to being student of the day. His desire for learning is incredible and I no longer worry about school calling me every day for behavioral issues. Brain Balance is worth every penny. If you are on the fence, take the leap. You won't be disappointed.”
“My daughter was foursomes with ADHD. She attended phase one of the program and there have already been significant improvement to her behavior and socialization skills!”
“My son has struggled socially and in school for as long as we can remember. As we approached high school we knew something needed to be done to help him with his struggles. We had him tested in school and at the doctor and their resolution was medication. We tried he, he did not like how it made him feel and found that he was throwing away the pills. Honestly, I was not a believer, I do believe in medicine, and until the evaluation was done on my son, and I could see the deficiencies on paper, I was a skeptic. After seeing where my son needed work and allowing Brain Balance to fix those deficiencies, I am now a believer. This program has changed our lives, especially his. His has blossomed into a student striving for A’s, and athlete, musician, and a social butterfly. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not magic, it takes work, and home dedication with meals, exercises, and support, but it will work.... he proved that....”
“The team at Brain Balance of Palm Beach Gardens is exceptional! Not only do they always give time to make each child feel special, they were there for the parents and the family at large and the personal interest and care was deeply felt. Although it was a longer drive for us, my son was always eager to make the journey. We saw so many changes to his range and personality as he went through the program. I'm grateful we tried Brain Balance and thankful my son didn't just get labeled and given a medication. He was treated with love, respect, and supported in his needs the entire time! Thank you Mary and Morgan!”
“Brain Balance of Wexford is professionally run and organized, clean and the staff is extremely passionate about each child and their success. They truly look for the best solution for each child, and they really think outside the box to accomplish individualized plans.

Children are our greatest gift and they are worth every investment into their future and success. This is the best investment you’ll ever make! Bless you BB of Wexford and all you have done!”
“I want to start by thinking Brain Balance of Summerlin for all there hard work an knowledge so we as a team were able to help my son grow an achieve all the goals we had set for him!

Thank you Brain Balance”
“Brain Balance has been the most rewarding experience of my life. For years I had struggled with a severe attention deficit problem, along with a severe stutter/speech impediment. The 3 months I spent in this program has done more for me than any stimulant medication or speech therapy I’ve ever had. Every single tool I’ve learned here I have implemented into every aspect of my life. My life is BETTER because I went to brain balance.
I am no longer dependent on medication to improve my focus & anxiety - I’ve learned how to manage it on my own. I love myself more because of brain balance. Thank you Dr. G. 🙏🏻❤️”
