According to a large-scale study...

When first-year college students received coaching, they were more likely to persist in college and had significantly better retention and graduation rates.

College students can learn how to:
✽ Build Better Habits
✽ Plan, Prioritize, and Organize
✽ Set Goals and Work to Achieve Them
✽ Fight Procrastination & Increase Motivation

Transitioning to college can be both exciting and overwhelming for any student. The stress of trying to adapt to so many life changes all at once can wreak havoc on our ability to use the part of our brain that controls executive functioning just we need it the most. For those of us that our neurodivergent, executive functioning skills tend to be a bit behind anyway, and now they are thrown completely offline.

Studies have shown that college students who received ADHD coaching developed better executive functioning and self-determination skills, improved study skills, managed stress more effectively, and reported increased self-awareness, self-esteem, and satisfaction with school and work. You don't need a diagnosis to benefit from this type of coaching.

Coaching can help you...

✽ Understand how your brain works so you are better able to work with it.

✽ Identify your challenges and problem-solve to find solutions that will work for you.

✽ Set goals and implement new habits and strategies to help you reach them.

✽ Identify and use your strengths to help you overcome obstacles.

✽ Help you find motivation even when your brain would rather procrastinate.

Are you a student at Montana State University?

Finding a coach familiar with the university you attend and its surrounding area can be extremely beneficial. Having a working knowledge of the resources available both on and off campus can make a huge difference in your success. And, while meeting online can be convenient for scheduling purposes, having someone nearby you can reach out to for assistance can be very comforting, especially if you are a long way away from home.

Having taught at Gallatin College within the Montana State University System for many years, I understand the ins and outs of MSU and can help you find free resources that promote student success. Combining these resources with coaching can be extremely effective, producing excellent results, while saving you money in the process.

Hi, I'm Jessica...

I’ve lived most of my life not realizing I have ADHD. I always wondered why everything seemed so hard, why I could be so motivated one day and completely uninterested the next, why I struggled planning for the future and when I would come up with a great plan, I could rarely follow through. It wasn't until my kids were diagnosed with ADHD and I started learning about it that everything made sense. It is amazing to me that I was able to accomplish so much, yet I never felt like I was living up to my potential, now I know why.

The more I have learned, the more I have realized that knowledge is power. Now that I understand how our brains work, I function so much better and I feel a lot better about myself, too. Is my life perfect? No. Do I still sometimes struggle with my ADHD brain? Of course, but not nearly as often and I no longer beat myself up about it. I have the tools

to overcome life’s challenges and I know how to use them. I only wish I had learned this stuff when I was still in school. It is now my life’s mission to help others.

I have years of experience as a teacher and more recently a coach. I taught in the Aviation Department at Gallatin College and at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. I am also the Color Guard coach at Belgrade High School, so I understand what it takes to teach and motivate both teenagers and adults. I am a certified life coach with extensive training in ADHD, executive functioning, mindfulness, and positive psychology. I truly believe that it takes all of these things to live our best lives. Are you ready to make a change? Let me help you flourish.
