Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ADHD and executive functioning coaching?

ADHD coaching helps individuals with ADHD develop strategies for managing symptoms like inattention, impulsivity, and time management, and includes executive functioning coaching.

Executive functioning coaching focuses on strengthening skills such as planning, prioritization, organization, and self-regulation to improve productivity and independence.

Who can benefit from your coaching? 

LiveWright Coaching supports high school and college students, as well as adults, who struggle with ADHD, executive functioning challenges, or navigating academic or personal transitions. We provide personalized strategies to help you or your child thrive in education, the workplace, and daily life.

Can you coach middle school students?

Coaching can be a powerful tool for many students, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. In general, students who are in high school or older tend to benefit most from coaching, especially when they’re ready to take more ownership of their learning, goals, and habits. While some middle school students may find value in the process, students below eighth grade typically don’t benefit significantly, as coaching often relies on a level of self-reflection, executive functioning, and communication that is still developing at that stage.

What should I expect in a coaching session?

Each session is tailored to the client’s goals and needs. Sessions may include identifying challenges, creating actionable plans, developing organization or time-management strategies, and learning tools for self-advocacy and accountability. Sessions are collaborative and solution-focused.

How often are coaching sessions, and how long do they last?

How often are coaching sessions, and how long do they last? Sessions are held twice weekly and typically last 25-30 minutes, depending on the client’s goals and schedule. We will work together to create a consistent routine that supports progress.

What is academic transition coaching?

Academic transition coaching helps students navigate major educational transitions, such as starting high school, preparing for college, or moving into independent learning environments. The focus is on developing organization, self-advocacy, and time management skills to ensure success.

How is coaching different from therapy or tutoring?

Coaching is action-oriented and focuses on improving skills and achieving specific goals. Unlike therapy, it does not address mental health diagnoses or past emotional issues. Unlike tutoring, it focuses on life and executive functioning skills rather than specific academic content.

Do you work in-person or online?

LiveWright coaching offers virtual coaching sessions to make services accessible no matter where you are. Services are available from Sunday through Friday.

How long does coaching typically last?

The length of coaching varies based on individual goals. Many clients benefit from 3–6 months of consistent coaching, while others continue long-term to maintain progress and adapt to new challenges.

How do I get started with LiveWright?

The first step is scheduling an introductory consultation. During this session, we’ll discuss your goals, challenges, and whether coaching fits you or your child. 

How much do your services cost?

Coaching prices are based on session frequency and individual needs. Most are $200 per hour. Contact LiveWright directly to discuss specific requests, consulting needs, and other ways I can assist you.

Can parents be involved in the coaching process?

Yes. We appreciate parental involvement in aligning goals and maintaining accountability for high school students. For college students or adults, involvement is tailored based on the client’s preferences.
