The EF Coach

THE PROMISE

Does school feel harder than it should?

It doesn’t have to! I help capable teens build the habits, strategies and confidence to become independent learners, so school feels more manageable and home feels calmer.

No obligation. Just a chance to explore
whether coaching is the right fit.

Experience. Expertise. A Relational Approach.

THE PROBLEM

School teaches what to learn. Not how.

Many students already know they should use a planner, start earlier, or study harder.

Real change happens when students understand how they learn, recognize what gets in their way, and develop systems and strategies that work for their unique brain.

Coaching combines practical strategies with self-awareness, helping students become more confident, capable, and independent over time.

1

Getting Started

Overcome procrastination with concrete, personalized strategies.

2

Planning & Organization

Break projects down, manage deadlines, keep materials in order.

3

Studying That Sticks

Move beyond re-reading and cramming to strategies that stick.

4

Self-Awareness

Take ownership of learning through reflection and goal-setting. 

 

“Every student I work with is capable and curious, even if school hasn’t always made that easy to see. My job is helping them find it, name it, and learn to use it.”

— Susannah, The EF Coach

GETTING STARTED

Curious about next steps? Here’s exactly what to expect:

STEP 1

First, a conversation with you

We start with a free 30-minute call for you as parents. You share what you’re seeing at home and at school, and I listen, ask questions, and explain how executive function coaching actually works. This is an opportunity for us to talk openly and explore together whether coaching might be the right fit for your family.

Complimentary 30 mins.

STEP 2

Next, a short questionnaire

After our call, I’ll send you a short questionnaire. You know your child and your family better than anyone, and your perspective helps me show up fully prepared for our first meeting with them. The more you share, the more tailored that session will be. It takes about 15–20 minutes to complete.

Complete at your own pace

STEP 3

Finally, I meet your teen 

This is where I meet your child, just the two of us. We talk about what coaching actually looks like, what they’re hoping for, and whether working together feels like the right fit. There’s no pressure. It’s a genuine conversation, not an audition and your teen’s voice matters in this decision.

Complimentary 30 mins.
