ADHD Coaching for Students

ADHD Coaching for students

My journey into ADHD and executive function coaching began with my own family. Walking through diagnoses, misunderstandings, and daily chaos made it clear - school struggles don’t just affect grades; they impact the whole family. That experience is the foundation of The ADHD Family Shift and shapes everything I do.


What I hear from parents all the time is this:
‘My child is so smart, but homework takes forever.’
‘They forget things no matter how many 

reminders I give.’
‘They’re capable, but they can’t seem to get 

started—or finished.’


That’s where student ADHD coaching comes in. I work one-on-one with kids and teens to build executive function skills like organization, time management, and follow-through. With the right strategies and support, students start to feel capable and confident, and families begin to experience less stress and more teamwork at home.

What is executive function anyway?

What does that have to do with ADHD?

Think of executive function as your brain’s management system. It’s what helps you plan, stay organized, manage time, remember details, and follow through. When these skills are strong, life feels smoother—you can actually get things done instead of just thinking about them. And here’s the best part: these are skills, not fixed traits. Which means they can be taught, practiced, and strengthened at any age.

What does that have to do with ADHD?

ADHD and executive function go hand in hand. ADHD makes it harder for the brain’s “manager” to do its job, so things like starting tasks, finishing them, or keeping track of time can feel like climbing a mountain. It’s not about laziness or lack of intelligence; it’s simply how the ADHD brain works. Knowing this is powerful, because it explains why life can feel so overwhelming even when you’re trying your hardest.

Is there any good news?

Is there any good news?

Yes, lots of it! Executive function skills can absolutely get better with the right tools and support. Small, doable changes really do add up. I’ve seen students finally feel confident in school, adults find systems that stick, and families breathe easier because they’re no longer fighting the same battles every day. The shift is real: from frustration to understanding, from chaos to calm-ish, and from just surviving to thriving.
 

My Secret Sauce to Student ADHD Coaching?

I don’t just coach ADHD and executive function - I live it. I’m a certified ADHD parent coach with extensive training in the Smart but Scattered® framework, as well as Unstuck and On Target. On top of that, I pull from countless other trainings and certifications in ADHD, executive function, and coaching. What that means for you is a coaching approach that’s customized, practical, research-based, and tailored to real life, not just theory.

Since every situation is unique, there’s no one-size-fits-all timeline. For some, a semester of intervention is just right, while others benefit from a longer journey with sessions gradually spaced farther  apart. Together, we’ll set a pace that makes sense for your family.

Start the ADHD Shift

Move from overwhelm to clarity. From late assignments and stress to progress and confidence.

Students learn how to get organized, manage time, start and finish tasks, and believe in themselves again. These shifts don’t just help with schoolwork—they build independence, reduce stress at home, and give students skills they’ll use for life.

This is Not Therapy. This is Not Tutoring.

This is coaching - a thought partner, a problem-solver, a guide.
It’s about building executive function skills that lead to more peace, more progress, and more purpose.
