What is executive function coaching?
Executive function coaching is a specialized form of academic support designed to help students improve their organizational, planning, time management, and self-regulation abilities. It focuses on setting goals, prioritizing tasks, and building the sustainable habits that college demands.
How can coaching help my student in college?
Coaching helps students manage their workload more effectively, improve study habits, overcome procrastination, and develop strategies that work for how their brain actually operates. It also builds communication skills and empowers students to advocate for themselves with professors and advisors.
Who benefits most from executive function coaching?
Any college student struggling with organization, time management, planning, or follow-through can benefit, but it's especially valuable for students with ADHD, learning disabilities, or other conditions that impact executive functioning. Students who are in academic jeopardy or navigating their first semester often see the biggest gains.
What happens in a typical coaching session?
Sessions are personalized and goal-oriented. We review current assignments, navigate the school's learning management system (Canvas, Moodle, D2L, Blackboard), set priorities for the week ahead, and reflect on what's working. Over time we build repeatable systems rather than just putting out fires.
How often do we meet, and can that change over time?
Initially we meet weekly for 45–60 minutes, or twice a week for 30-minute sessions. As your student builds skills and confidence, sessions can become less frequent, bi-weekly or monthly, to support increasing independence.
How much does coaching cost?
Pricing is discussed during the free initial consultation, where we can find a session structure that fits your student's needs and your family's budget. Reach out to get started, no commitment required.
