Executive Function Coaching

What are Executive Functioning Skills?

One-On-One Support 

When you’re deep in it, it can be hard to see the big picture. Our coaches will work with you to identify specific problems you may have missed, create custom solutions that fit your unique situation, and help you follow through with the execution of the plan.

Executive functions drive a big part of our daily life, yet it’s common for many people to never have heard of this term before. Executive functions are a cognitive network in the brain’s frontal lobe that controls everything from focus, to attention, and impulse inhibition. You can think of it like the command center of the brain.

The good thing is that while some people may naturally have strength in these areas (like that coworker who is always on time and organized) these are all learnable skills!

How does Executive Function Coaching work?

Coaching begins with a comprehensive assessment to evaluate strengths
and areas of difficulty

We will sit down with you and/or your child to learn what you're struggling with, what's not working, and what you feel you need support accomplishing.

This can be anything from "my child never remembers to turn in his homework" to "managing my family's schedule is very overwhelming" or even "I want to have a successful transition from high school to college."
