Bright Minds Coaching Programs
I have one-to-one coaching programs for every kind of learner. I often work with students and professionals with ADHD, language processing disorders, anxiety, and other learning differences. Many people find that my programs work best when they’re integrated with other support systems ranging from school counselors, learning specialists, and healthcare providers.
Each program is centered around specific learning objectives and all instruction/support is customized for the individual. My coaching programs ask participants to make a commitment to their own learning and growth. Those who receive the most benefit are open to growth, willing to make changes, and committed to showing up. Space is limited and early enrollment is advised.

Get Study Skills that Work + Grades that Prove It
Studying doesn’t have to be a drag. I take students through the Anit-Boring approach, developed by a former teacher and educational specialist to give students basic skills in how learning actually works. From there, they understand how to study effectively, get better results on tests, and use this same foundation to thrive as a life-long learner.
Beat Procrastination • Retain Key Points with Better Notetaking • Make Studying Fun & Be100% Ready for Tests • Learn Anything, No Matter How Good [or Bad] Your Teacher Is • Stay Motivated & Calm Under Test Pressure • Be Prepped for Finals & Exceed Your Expectations • Create Your Own Study System & Make Every Semester Better than the Last

Academic Recovery Coaching | Get Back on Track at School
Many hard-working students find themselves in academic crisis at some point in their high school or college education. Missed assignments, failed tests, prolonged absences, unexpected loss, poor study habits, undiagnosed learning disabilities, and mental health challenges, even poor student/teacher fit can all play a role in your student’s academic performance.
When students need academic first aid, our work is intensive. It takes a commitment from the student (and support from the family) to do the work necessary to rebound academically. Academic recovery does not equal an aspirational grade; however, it’s my intention to help students and families navigate these tense times and regain as much academic footing as possible.
This program has some unique features. Academic recovery students receive priority scheduling, weekly check-ins, and appointment text reminders and parents receive weekly updates. The process begins with a full academic audit of your student’s grades and assignments. Over the course of 8 weeks, we’ll meet regularly to work to regain academic footing and to skill build in your student’s most pressing areas.
After 8 weeks, most students benefit from continuing into the Learning Reboot or Think Bright Program. I’ll include my recommendations in your student’s final assessment at the end of the coaching program.
