Do you have a hard time getting started on tasks? Do you experience decision paralysis? Do you have trouble creating a routine or sticking to it? Do you experience daily energy crashes? Do you make plans but struggle to follow through?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above, coaching can help you build customized strategies that fit your brain and lifestyle.
We'll discuss your current challenges, see what's working and what's not, and try out practical strategies to boost your executive function skills. Each session is tailored to you and can be as structured or flexible as you need.
No formal preparation is needed! However, it can be helpful to come with a general idea of what challenges you're facing or specific goals you'd like to work on.
Coaching is all about action and practical strategies for daily challenges like time management and motivation. Therapy, however, dives into emotional well-being, mental health conditions, and past experiences. Coaching isn't a replacement for therapy and doesn't address trauma or deep emotional work.
Speech-language pathology, or speech therapy, covers all aspects of language and communication, swallowing, and cognition with a focus on rehabilitation or achieving "normal function." Coaching focuses specifically on executive function skills like planning, task initiation, and follow-through, with a focus on function and embracing differences.
I am not working to "fix" you in any way.
Since executive function and neurodivergence can impact communication, we can still discuss these topics in coaching sessions! However, coaching sessions are not speech therapy and are not covered by insurance.
No, all coaching sessions are online to make them more accessible and flexible. This allows you to participate from wherever you’re most comfortable.
That depends on your goals! Some clients benefit from just a few sessions to develop key strategies, while others prefer ongoing support to build and refine their systems over time.
Coaching can be weekly or less frequent, depending on what works best for you.
That’s completely okay! Many people seek coaching because they feel overwhelmed and don’t know what steps to take.
Our sessions will help you clarify your challenges, break them down into manageable steps, and experiment with strategies that fit your unique needs.
No, you don't need an official diagnosis. I understand the challenges of getting one. You're welcome here whether you have an official diagnosis, have realized your neurodivergence, or are questioning your brain for the first time. The same goes for medical diagnoses and chronic illnesses. We can work on strategies for managing appointments, remembering medications, and dealing with fluctuating energy levels, no matter the condition.
I've worked with a wide range of conditions and diagnoses, both personally and professionally. This list isn't exhaustive, and I'm always eager to learn more if you're dealing with something new to me! Some conditions include Long COVID, concussion/TBI, stroke, EDS, POTS, MCAS, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, autoimmune conditions, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, chronic pain and inflammation, seizures, ADHD, autism, OCD, PTSD, BPD, DID, bipolar, anxiety, and depression.
No, executive function coaching is not covered by insurance.
I try to keep costs low while also making sure I can support myself.
I have limited number of free or low-cost sessions per month. Please ask about this if you need it.
Groups are a great way to get support and coaching at a lower cost.
I mainly coach adults (18+), but I might make exceptions for older teens (16+) depending on the situation.
