Welcome to the magic of coaching!
Collegiate life coaching and executive function coaching helps college students and college bound students set themselves up for daily success on campus.
Hi there. I am Lori. I help college students succeed and feel joy in the midst of chaos. I have partnered with both high school and college students all over the country since 2016 helping them settle into college with confidence.
Foremost, I am an advocate for student mental health and overall wellness.
I am a strong proponent of keeping a life-work balance as a busy college student.
To me, and to most of my student clients, when you feel in control of your life in a healthy, productive way, your mental health becomes both the foundation and catalyst for your academic success.
The first question I always get from parents or the student is:
"How does coaching work?"
Coaching is an co-active process. The relationship between a coach and student is "co-creative", meaning we are equals and both of us play an active role in the coaching process with your designated goals as our NorthStar.
Different from traditional therapy, coaching is a timely process that supports, moves, and engages the student in self-managing practices that build success in every area of college life, not just academics.
Here at Students Stress Less Coaching LLC, I use a proprietary coaching framework called Everything but Books - 8 Necessary Skills to SurTHRIVE Freshman Year of College.
Most college students struggle with one or more of these eight essential skills and we assess these challenges through these 3 main lenses:
>Stress and anxiety management skills
>Executive function skills
>Life balance and wellness habits
