The Benefits of Academic Coaching Support

The Benefits of Professional Coaching Support

Whether you are going to college for the first time, preparing for graduate studies, or writing your thesis/dissertation, you are committing to a significant investment of time, energy, and finances. For success, it is essential to assess your strengths and challenges and then build skills and upgrade tools in time management and planning, reading, notetaking, writing essays, and taking exams. Because they are skills that people are not born with, the most effective way is to learning them and practice them is with a coach. Just like other skills, regular checkins with me can help support the development of these essential skills, while accountability to a coach can help connect you to a motivational source. Whether it be in-person meetings on-campus (in Western Massachusetts) or zoom appointments remotely, I can help support your academic goals!

The Benefits of Professional Coaching Support

The new normal for many professionals will be working from home. This has the upside of less commute time but the downside of lacking structure, goals, and managing your workspace. For success, it is essential that you create structure, planning, and goals for yourself. Sometimes its difficult to talk out these concerns with your supervisor or colleagues. It may also be difficult developing expectations for yourself and the people around. As a professional coach, I can help you create these necessary parts of your professional life. Some professionals have actually used me as a reason to create needed boundaries with their significant other in order to get their work accomplished! Check-ins and accountability with a coach can help preempt issues before they become problems.

The Benefits of Educational Assessment

Most Colleges require updated pyscho-educational testing in order to be eligible for reasonable accommodations under the American's With Disabilities Act. If you suspect the presence of a learning disability or ADHD, testing can help you explore your strengths and challenges in learning.
