Executive functioning skills are the mental tools that help students stay organized, manage time, set goals, and tackle challenges with confidence. I work with students and families to strengthen these skills so school—and life—feels more manageable.

Some of the skills we focus on include:

• Time Management – plan and use time effectively

• Organization – keep materials and tasks in order

• Prioritization – focus on what matters most

• Task Initiation – start assignments without delay

• Goal-Setting – create and work toward achievable goals

• Self-Monitoring – track progress and adjust as needed

• Flexible Thinking – adapt to new situations or changes

• Emotional Regulation – manage stress and stay focused

Developing these skills helps students succeed in school, gain confidence, and build habits that last a lifetime.
