You Are Not Alone

Connect with a Coach

Executive function skills are the brain’s management system for planning, organizing, regulating emotions, and following through. When these skills are supported, daily life becomes more predictable, manageable, and less overwhelming, at home, at school, and at work.

Thrive Beyond Therapy helps close the gap between knowing and doing.

Executive function coaching bridges the gap between knowing what to do and actually being able to do it. We help teens and adults:

Start tasks without overwhelm
Build sustainable routines
Improve organization and follow-through
Reduce procrastination and increase motivation
Manage emotions in everyday situations
Turn intentions into consistent action

How Coaching Changes Lives

The real stories of growth, confidence, and change made possible through coaching.
“This is the best thing we’ve ever done for him.”
Liz, I just wanted to thank you! Zach’s motivation and confidence have changed so much. He loves working with Amy, and I can see him growing into himself again. To hear him laughing again and believing in his future has meant everything to us. This is the best thing we’ve ever done for him, thank you!

“I finally feel capable again.”

As a college student navigating ADHD, depression, and anxiety, I was constantly finding myself in a position where I felt incapable and hopeless of being successful. Thank you to Katy for helping me to finally feel capable again. She helped me find solutions to the barriers I was facing, stay accountable, and build the confidence I needed to be successful not only now, but with anything I decide to do.

“I finally feel confident she’ll succeed.”

Thank you to Keshia for meeting our daughter where she is and guiding her on her path. As a mom, it’s hard not to steer her future, but I can see her growing so much. I finally feel confident she’ll succeed. Coaching has been the best investment we could have made in her life and future.

“He’s like a completely different person.”

I want to say thank you. In just a few months, Conner’s like a completely different person. He has become more organized, more engaged, and so much easier to communicate with at home. His grades improved, he can finally find his things, and even his car is clean! Coaching has made his future feel bright again.

Parent of a College Student, Temple University
“I finally trust that when things get hard, I will get through it!”

Last year was the hardest time I’ve ever been through. Therapy helped, but I still felt lost trying to deal with my life all week alone. Coaching gave me a plan I could actually follow, helped me get organized, make decisions, and stay on top of things instead of avoiding. Even my therapist noticed the change. I finally trust that when things get hard, I will get through it!

Emma E.

College Senior, University of Houston
“Coaching helped me rebuild my life.”

I am so thankful my therapist suggested I add in coaching! I had failed out of college, was working a job I disliked, and believed nothing would ever change. My coach helped me understand how to figure out my goals and what I could do to actually get there. Now I have a great job and just started back at school. I still can’t believe how coaching helped me rebuild my life.

“My life is so different now it is hard to even picture how it used to be.”
When I started coaching, my anxiety made it hard to get out of bed. Now I have a new job, a new apartment, and finally feel like myself again. My life is so different now it is hard to even picture how it used to be. I’m so grateful to Katy for the support that helped me get here and for believing in me!


Lauren K.

Brighton, NY
“Coaching with my therapy helped me turn my life around”
I was failing my classes, overwhelmed by anxiety and depression, and caught up in things that weren’t good for me. Starting therapy and coaching at the same time helped me work through where things were going wrong and learn how to get things done for myself. I’ve finally started making good choices about my future and know I’m in control! Coaching with my therapy helped me turn my life around.


Anna F.

Salt Lake City, UT
“She finally has the team of support she needed.”
My daughter has faced so many challenges, including losing her mom and navigating ADHD. Coaching twice a week has helped her grow and provided her with both academic and emotional support, and she has responded with improved grades as well as her social functioning. Coaching was the missing piece for her and now she finally has the team of support she needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

A short overview of what to expect from coaching. (See our full FAQ for more.)

What does Thrive Beyond Therapy coaching actually mean?

Coaching at Thrive Beyond Therapy is a structured, supportive partnership designed to help you (or your child) build the skills, confidence, and follow‑through needed for daily life. It includes:


  • Ongoing one‑on‑one coaching sessions focused on your goals, challenges, and real‑life context.

  • Real‑time support and accountability between sessions so you’re not left on your own when things get hard.


  • Personalized executive function skill building that strengthens planning, organization, emotional regulation, and follow‑through.


  • Strategies that fit your actual daily life, not generic tips or one‑size‑fits‑all advice.


  • A collaborative partnership that helps you turn insight into action and build momentum over time.

How is coaching different from therapy?

Therapy and coaching work beautifully together, but they support different parts of a person’s growth. A simple way to understand the difference is:


  • Therapy helps you understand the “why.”

It focuses on emotional healing, mental health symptoms, patterns, and the internal experiences that shape how you feel and respond. Therapy creates space to process, explore, and make sense of what’s happening inside.

  • Coaching helps you with the “how.”

It turns insight into action: building the practical skills, routines, and follow‑through needed for daily life. Coaching focuses on planning, organization, motivation, emotional regulation in real‑time, and staying accountable between sessions.

Together, therapy supports the inner work, and coaching supports the daily life work. Many people find that combining both finally gives them the tools, structure, and momentum they’ve been missing.

Who benefits from executive function coaching?

Executive function coaching is helpful for anyone who feels capable but stuck, especially when motivation, organization, follow‑through, or emotional regulation get in the way of daily life. People who benefit most often include:


  • People who feel overwhelmed by the demands of daily life, juggling responsibilities and expectations that feel impossible to manage alone

  • Individuals in transition (recent discharge from residential or inpatient treatment, new school, new job, returning to college, moving out, etc.) who need help building sustainable systems

  • Students who are bright but inconsistent, struggling with planning, time management, or keeping up with schoolwork

  • Teens and young adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, or overwhelm, who need structure and real‑time support

  • College students adjusting to independence, balancing academics, routines, and life skills

  • People who understand why they’re stuck but can’t figure out how to move forward, even with insight from therapy
Coaching is especially powerful for those who already have insight but need practical, day‑to‑day strategies and accountability to turn that insight into action.

What does a coaching session look like?

A coaching session is a comfortable, structured conversation focused on those real‑life challenges you’re facing that week. Sometimes you may want to focus on those little things like getting emails or dishes caught up and sometimes it may be bigger things like making a decision on changing careers.

Your coach helps you break things down, understand what’s getting in the way, and choose simple, doable next steps. Sessions often include reviewing what worked, troubleshooting what didn’t, and building the executive function skills that make follow‑through easier over time.

Most sessions feel like:

  • A supportive planning and check‑in that reduces overwhelm

  • A clear plan for the days between sessions (your coach is always available between sessions)

  • Practical tools and strategies you can use right away based on the way your brain works and what you want to accomplish

You leave with a sense of direction and control, not a long to‑do list.

How quickly do people see progress?

Most people begin to notice small but meaningful shifts within the first few weeks: things like reduced overwhelm, clearer plans, or more consistent follow‑through. These early wins build momentum, and progress tends to grow over time as skills strengthen and routines become more natural.


Progress usually shows up in a few ways:

  • Early changes: feeling less stuck, having a clearer plan, or completing tasks that used to feel impossible, less anxiety

  • Steady growth: better organization, improved emotional regulation, and more reliable follow‑through, decreased procrastination, increased motivation

  • Long‑term transformation: increased confidence, independence, and the ability to manage life’s demands without feeling overwhelmed

Every person’s timeline is different, but coaching is designed to create both immediate relief and sustainable change, not quick fixes or fads that fade.

Imagine feeling more in control by the end of this week.

With the right support, stress stops running the show. Coaching helps you build routines, follow‑through, and confidence, no matter where you’re starting from.
