How it Works
GOAL SETTING
Our first step is a comprehensive assessment designed to understand the unique strengths and challenges each student brings to the table in terms of executive function. Through this personalized evaluation, we gain valuable insights into areas such as organization, time management, and impulse control.
Once we have a clear understanding of the individual's executive function profile, our experienced coaches collaborate with the student to develop tailored goals. These goals serve as the roadmap for our coaching sessions, guiding the journey towards enhanced executive function skills and improved overall academic and personal success.
STRATEGIZING
The next crucial step is to strategize collaboratively with the student, their parents, and family members. We understand the importance of a holistic approach, recognizing that executive function skills extend beyond individual efforts. Our experienced coaches engage in open dialogues to gain insights into the daily challenges faced by the student and to co-create effective strategies that align with their unique needs.
We firmly believe in the power of a united front, and thus, we facilitate meetings with parents and family members to ensure a seamless integration of support both at home and in academic settings. Additionally, we work closely with schools to coordinate goals and strategies, fostering a comprehensive and synchronized approach to executive function development.
APPLY TOOLS
The subsequent phase of our Executive Function Coaching program focuses on practical skill development. Here, students actively engage in learning and practicing a toolkit of strategies tailored to enhance essential executive function skills such as organization, planning, task initiation, and more.
Our coaches work closely with individuals, guiding them through hands-on exercises and real-world applications to reinforce these skills. This hands-on approach not only empowers individuals with a repertoire of practical strategies but also cultivates a sense of self-efficacy as they witness tangible improvements in their executive function abilities.
The emphasis on real-world application ensures that these skills become integral parts of their daily lives, setting the foundation for sustained success in academic and personal endeavors.
REASSESS & REVISE
In our dynamic program, we recognize the evolving nature of personal growth and skill development. Following the initial stages of assessment and strategy implementation, our next pivotal step involves a continuous cycle of reassessment and goal revision. Regular check-ins with our experienced coaches provide the opportunity to reflect on accomplishments, challenges, and evolving needs.
By remaining adaptive, we ensure that goals and strategies are always aligned with the current requirements of each student. Through this ongoing commitment to refinement, we empower individuals to navigate their academic and personal journeys with resilience and success, fostering a lifelong capacity for effective executive function skills.
INDEPENDENCE
Our Executive Function Coaching program culminates in the ultimate goal of fostering independence. Through stages of assessment, strategy development, and skill building, our program equips individuals with the tools needed to navigate executive function challenges independently.
The focus is not just on mastering specific skills but also on cultivating a mindset that promotes self-awareness, self-regulation, and effective decision-making. By the end of the program, our aim is to empower individuals with the confidence and skills required to thrive autonomously in both academic and personal pursuits.
