The transition to college can feel overwhelming.
Your student may be living away from home for the first time and be
used to having help with waking up, managing homework, and getting
places on time. In college, they will need to manage these
responsibilities independently and advocate for themselves.
I can help prepare both you and your student for this transition
to greater independence.
I offer a different kind of college coaching—helping your student ask
the right questions in IEP meetings, on college tours, and with high
school and college instructors. I guide families through the path from
high school to college, including when to disclose a disability, what to ask,
and how to evaluate the answers.
I also build self-advocacy and self-efficacy
skills so students better understand themselves, communicate effectively, and
get their academic and social needs met in college. I work with the whole
family (including household members age 12 and older, if desired) to build a
supportive environment for student success. My goal is to strengthen
self-advocacy and help families navigate the transition from high school to
college with clarity and confidence.
My services complement the work of a guidance counselor or college
consultant. I go beyond what a typical executive function coach or
study skills tutor provides, and I’m happy to collaborate with your
existing coach or consultant so our recommendations align and your
family gets the most from both services.
