About
Britany
For several years I was a teacher to middle and high school grades. I loved working with students, but I soon realized that there were more hinderances for many students than simply comprehension. When I took an opportunity to work in a group home as a learning coach, these hinderances were even more evident, because the population needed targeted assistance in building executive functioning skills. I developed a passion for working with clients on these skills because I saw that all other parts of life, not just academic, were impacted by executive dysfunction. I was trained and certified as a cognitive behavioral life coach, and then I pursued a credential in case management and interventions. These trainings are the foundation for my coaching because I believe that cognitive distortions can be created because of executive dysfunction, and I believe a strategy-centered approach with a present focus is an excellent coaching method for executive functioning.
As someone with ADHD, and as someone who has taught many students over the years, I know that learning differences can feel like a character defect. It is so important to me to empower students and clients with the belief that learning differences do not make them "bad" or "wrong" - it just means they need different tools to succeed! I love being a part of rewriting that narrative and equipping clients with those tools.
I have personal experience with ADHD, both with my own diagnosis and with those of my friends and family! I know it presents with challenges, but it also comes with a lot of uniqueness and creativity! I have a big husky mix named Remus; he's goofy and hyper, and an absolute joy! I would live at Disney World if I could - it's my happy place!
