Executive Function Coaching

Executive functioning Skills

Executive functions are the brain-based skills that help children and young adults plan, organize, start and complete tasks, manage time, regulate emotions, and adapt to change. When these skills are challenging, school demands, routines, and transitions can feel overwhelming despite strong abilities in other areas.

​

Executive function coaching is a practical, skill-based service that helps learners develop strategies to manage daily demands more independently. Coaching focuses on real-life tasks - such as homework, routines, projects, and transitions - rather than abstract exercises. Strategies are individualized, strengths-based, and designed to carry over into everyday life at home, school, and beyond.

​

This service is appropriate for children, teens, and young adults who experience challenges such as:

• Time management, planning, and organization

• Task initiation and follow-through

• Emotional regulation and impulse control

• Working memory and cognitive flexibility

​​

This includes (but is not limited to) individuals with ADHD, autistic individuals, learning differences, or executive functioning challenges related to neurodevelopment or brain injury.

​

Support may include:

• Elementary school skill-building

• Middle and high school transitions

• Post-secondary readiness and academic support

​

Collaborative & Compassionate Care

Executive function skills develop best when supports are consistent across environments. Services emphasize collaboration with families, educators, and the learner to build strategies, routines, and accommodations that are realistic, sustainable, and empowering. The approach is compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming, and focused on participation, confidence, and long-term skill development.
