Executive Functioning Coaching
in Pasadena, CA

You know what you're supposed to do. Getting yourself to do it is the hard part.

Executive functioning coaching for neurodivergent teens and adults who are done white-knuckling through systems that weren't built for their brains.

What is executive functioning coaching?

Executive functioning is the set of mental skills that help you plan, start, sustain, and complete tasks — along with managing time, regulating emotions, and switching gears when life demands it. For many neurodivergent people, these are the exact skills that feel most out of reach, not because of effort or intelligence, but because of how your brain is wired.

Coaching with Dr. Katie isn't about handing you a planner and wishing you luck. It's a collaborative, ongoing process of figuring out what actually works for your brain — and building real systems around that.

Who may benefit from executive functioning coaching:

  • Teens and adults with ADHD, autism, or related neurodivergence

  • People who've received a diagnosis and want practical support beyond the report

  • Anyone who knows they're capable but keeps running into the same walls

  • Those struggling with task initiation, follow-through, time blindness, or emotional dysregulation

What to expect during an executive functioning coaching session

Sessions are 50 minutes, held weekly or biweekly. Each session is collaborative — we look at what happened since last time, what's coming up, and what tools or strategies might actually help. The goal over time is less reliance on external structure and more confidence in your own rhythms.

Investment: $300 per session — private pay, not billed to insurance.

Why Dr. Katie?

As a licensed neuropsychologist, Dr. Katie brings clinical depth that most EF coaches don't have. She understands the neurological why behind your patterns — which means the strategies she helps you build aren't generic. They're grounded in how your brain actually works.
