When learning feels overwhelming or disorganized, it can be hard to stay on track. For children, teens, post-secondary students, and adults with dyslexia, ADHD, or executive function challenges, everyday tasks may require extra effort and support. I provide personalized 1:1 online support across Canada that uses calm, structured strategies designed to fit how your brain works. My goal is to make learning feel calmer, clearer, and better supported in real life.


How Executive Skills Coaching Can Help You Succeed


Executive skills coaching focuses on strengthening the mental processes that help with planning, organizing, time management, and self-regulation. These skills are essential for managing daily tasks, schoolwork, and work responsibilities. When these skills are underdeveloped or inconsistent, it can lead to frustration, missed deadlines, and stress.


Through executive skills coaching, I offer support tailored to your unique needs. For example, if you struggle with starting tasks, we might work on breaking projects into smaller, manageable steps. If time management is a challenge, I can help you develop practical routines and use tools like timers or planners effectively.


Some key areas I focus on include:


  • Planning and prioritizing: Learning how to set realistic goals and decide what to tackle first.

  • Organization: Creating systems for keeping track of materials, notes, and deadlines.

  • Time management: Using calendars, alarms, and schedules to stay on track.

  • Emotional regulation: Developing strategies to manage frustration and stay motivated.

  • Working memory: Techniques to hold and manipulate information during tasks.


By building these skills, you develop strategies to help you feel less overwhelmed and more confident in your abilities.

Personalized Executive Skills Coaching for Real-Life Success


Each person’s brain works differently, especially when neurodiversity is involved. That’s why I offer personalized 1:1 support that fits your specific strengths and challenges. Together, we explore what strategies work best for you and adapt them as needed.


For example, a teen with dyslexia might benefit from structured literacy techniques combined with executive skills coaching to improve reading comprehension and task management. An adult with ADHD might find success using visual schedules and mindfulness exercises to stay focused and calm.


I use a variety of neurodiversity-affirming strategies that respect how your brain works. This approach helps make learning and daily tasks feel less stressful and more achievable.


Thank you for reading. If this sounds familiar and you'd like support, you're welcome to book a free 15-minute consultation to talk things through.
