Coaching
Coaching is the perfect compliment to a busy life. And for some, it’s also a really helpful tool in the therapeutic process.
Some typical coaching clients include:
School-age students
● who can’t escape the “backpack black hole” where the assignments and planners and notebooks go in, never to be seen again.
● who see homework as a daily struggle.
● who need a few systems for paying attention in class.
● who would benefit from some support in social situations.
College-age students
● who are transitioning into an adult environment, either in college, the work world or during a gap year
● who need some organizational and study strategies and support for managing workloads, time and on-campus resources
● who are looking for personalized support in seeking and securing a next-level internship, acceptance or employed position
Adults
● who are looking to be more organized and less stressed
● who are living in cluttered environments and need help seeing – and making – their way out
● who need support during life’s transitions
Parents
● who are facing down kids who seem to be outsmarting them every time
● who have a busy family that needs to implement some better systems for sharing space, supporting relationships and getting out of the door on time
● who are seeking solutions for less stressful school days
● who want to learn how to better advocate for their child in academic, social and emotional circumstances
Families
● who want to learn how to have more fun together
● who need to create more efficient space and systems for living together

Adulting Coaching
Adult Coaching is best approached as a season, allowing for time to incorporate new goals and changes into daily life. After all, we can generally only make one big change at a time if we want it to stick. Whether transitioning to college, out of college or directly into Adulting, anyone can benefit from some extra support and skill-building. Each coaching package includes a SOM Coaching Roadmap, our way of tracking everything you’ll need to repeat this process on your own later: a customized SOM learner and leader profile, goals and strategies for meeting them and a timeline to keep sessions on track. While Adulting Coaching is generally between the SOM coach and young adult, it is highly encouraged for families to share in the process together at times. We’ll let you know if and when.
A Season of Change
One 60-minute, two 30-minute or four 15-minute sessions weekly for 3 months. Includes SOM Coaching Roadmap, individual and family Discovery Sessions and unlimited text/email check-ins. This is great for first time clients, long-term clients working through multiple goals and clients who need consistent (yet not Mom or Dad powered) support.
Baby Steps
One 60-minute or two 30-minute sessions every other week for 3 months. Includes SOM Coaching Roadmap, individual and family Discovery Sessions and unlimited text/email check-ins. This is your jam if you’re already jamming on your initial goals and just need some regular check-ins while systems are being refined.
Hit and Run
Don’t want to commit to a package yet but curious to see how Adulting can be easier than you thought? Already crushing your goals and just want a spot check-in with your coach? Purchased a package for a young adult, but looking for some sessions here and there to get everyone on the same page? Hourly coaching is available for those fill-in-the-blank type fix-its.
