Live Your Best Life
Effective, Efficient, & Straight Up Excellent!
How do you become effective, efficient, and straight up excellent? You develop your executive function skills. Okay, what are those? While the term, “executive function skills” may sound unfamiliar and maybe even intimidating, these are common skills that you use on a daily basis, such as: organization, self-control, critical thinking, working memory, planning and prioritizing…to name a few.
While some of these skills may seem like “no brainers”, it is important to realize that these are skills based primarily in the frontal lobe of the brain. They develop gradually over the first two decades of life and the rate at which they develop differs from person to person.
When the rate at which these skills develop is slower than age-based expectation this can lead to difficulties at home, at school, and at work. Unfortunately, if left as is, this can cause serious issues for you and those who work with you because your brain is literally unable to meet their expectations. However, do not despair. There are a myriad of ways to build up these skills and get you back on track for excellence! Executive function coaching is available!
Executive function coaching is a personalized skills based program for pre-teens, teens, young adults, and anyone interested in further developing their executive function skills. If you struggle with working memory, response inhibition, time management, planning/prioritizing, emotional control, metacognition, sustained attention, organization, goal-directed persistence, task initiation, and flexibility, then coaching is a valuable resource for you.
Sessions can take place in the office or in your home. In fact, it is important that at least one session take place in your home to set up systems that will yield success!
If you are thinking, this sounds great, how do I begin? Book your first session! At this session, you will be given a short assessment to determine your strengths and weakness in executive function skills. Once areas of improvement are determined an individualized plan will be formed and the following sessions will work to grow these skills.
Sessions typically last one hour, once a week. As weaknesses turn to strengths, frequency and duration of sessions will gradually diminish until you may no longer require coaching.
The goal is to get you functioning effectively, efficiently, excellently, and self-sufficiently!
