Our Executive Functioning Services
What are Executive Functions?
Executive functions are the mental skills we use to manage daily life and work toward our goals. These include things like time management, organization, planning, prioritizing, and starting tasks.
How Do They Impact Young Adults?
When someone struggles with these skills, it can affect their school, work, and relationships. For young adults, the challenges often grow as responsibilities increase. For example:
College Applications: Struggling to plan and start tasks like writing essays or meeting deadlines.
Transitioning to College: Adjusting to the independence of college can feel overwhelming without strong time management skills.
Adult Responsibilities: Managing bills, scheduling appointments, or navigating health insurance can be tricky to juggle all at once.
Workplace Expectations: Jobs often require independence, punctuality, and clear communication, which can feel like a big leap.
Relationships: Difficulty keeping track of plans, remembering commitments, or communicating effectively can create tension with friends, family, or romantic partners.
Common Challenges
- Trouble getting started
- Missing deadlines
- Losing track of time
- Feeling overwhelmed
- Forgetting responsibilities
Where It Shows Up

What Coaching Looks Like

Why It Works
Coaching helps break big goals into manageable steps, build sustainable routines, and stay on track with support from someone who gets it.
Is It ADHD?
Struggles with executive function are a core feature of ADHD—but not everyone who has these challenges has ADHD. Still, if this sounds like your experience, it may be worth exploring.

| Package 1 | In Package 1, you will meet with your EF Coach on a weekly basis for 1/2 hour 1:1 virtual sessions.

| Step Down Services | As you make progress through your work in Package 1 or Package 2, you and your EF Coach may decide that you no longer need the same level of coaching. Our Step Down Services allow you to reduce the time spent with your coach on direct coaching (this level provides 15 minute 1:1 coaching sessions with one check-in) and to space the sessions out to biweekly or even monthly, depending on your needs/progress. It is often helpful to combine the Step Down Level with Digital Coaching services. | $75 |
| Digital Coaching | Digital Coaching is an add-on service that allows your EF Coach to provide you with up to 5 digital check-ins/reminders per week. This service can be added on to any of our other services (Package 1, Package 2, or our Step Down Services). Digital coaching may include calendar reminders, text or email prompting, encouragement, or reminders. You and your EF Coach will decide what is best suited to your specific needs. | $50 |
