Empowering individuals for an inclusive world through executive function coaching

 

Making Intentions Match Outcomes.

We all learn and work differently. It’s time to build a more inclusive world that supports diverse needs and talents.

 

What is The How Skills?

Our team specializes in personalized coaching for executive function skills and ADA accommodations. We work one-to-one with employees, managers, accommodations teams, students, and adults to develop tailored strategies and tools that help people do their best work. Together, we develop sustainable systems for a more productive, fulfilling, and balanced approach to learning, working, and navigating life.


 

Who do we coach? 

Though we commonly work with neurodiverse individuals, everyone can benefit from intentionally cultivating executive function skills.

Our coaching clients identify as neurodiverse, neurotypical, and those managing a new or chronic mental health or medical condition. Each person’s needs are different, but there are some common patterns and challenges we can help with like those listed below.

  • This can look like…

    • Procrastinating

    • Appearing “lazy,” “scattered,” or “unmotivated”

    • Chronically missing due dates and deadlines

    • Falling behind in work or school

    • Starting strong, then getting off track

  • This can look like…

    • Prioritizing daily tasks feels like a struggle

    • Consistently losing track of personal belongings, dates, or responsibilities

    • Impulsiveness with words or actions

    • Needing better study skills

  • • Getting “stuck” or “going in circles” when trying to solve problems or make decisions

    • Feeling overwhelmed by increased independence or responsibility

    • Feelings of stress that come quickly and are hard to work through
