Bio

Hi! My name is Jim (or Coach Jim!). I’ve been an educator, mentor, and coach since I was in high school. I’ve always been drawn to helping professions, and I truly enjoy working one-on-one with clients—there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing their progress unfold in real time.

Hi! My name is Jim (or Coach Jim!). I’ve been an educator, mentor, and coach since I was in high school. I’ve always been drawn to helping professions, and I truly enjoy working one-on-one with clients—there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing their progress unfold in real time. Over the past 20+ years of working with children and adults with ADHD and other learning differences, I’ve developed a holistic, individualized approach that considers all aspects of a client’s life, including their interests, aptitudes, learning styles, and overall health and wellness. This perspective allows me to identify the most effective strategies to help each person reach their full potential by leveraging strengths while supporting areas of need.

I hold an MA in Developmental Psychology with a concentration in learning differences, and I am certified in Feuerstein’s Instrumental Enrichment cognitive restructuring program, the Orton-Gillingham Approach, and Mindfulness Life Coaching. Having worked with hundreds of clients, I’ve learned that there is no one-size-fits-all method. Instead, coaching is a collaborative process in which we establish weekly goals based on current needs and adjust them as life evolves.

My ultimate goal is to help clients move from surviving to thriving—academically, personally, and professionally—by equipping them with the tools, strategies, and confidence to navigate life with clarity and purpose.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

I have been teaching and mentoring since high school. My experience has helped me understand the challenges that children and adults with learning differences face, and to guide development based on their learning style and needs. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to help so many individuals meet their full potential.
Dyslexia

Dyslexia

I am certified in the Instrumental Enrichment cognitive restructuring program and trained in the Orton-Gillingham multi-sensory reading approach. I am also a specialist in visualization techniques that strengthen verbal skills and reading comprehension. My work is grounded in a practical, strengths-based philosophy that emphasizes the development of self-awareness, confidence, and real-world executive functioning skills.
Executive Functioning

Executive Functioning

I have provided coaching for hundreds of teens and adults to strengthen core executive functioning skills, including organization, time management, task initiation, and emotional regulation. One of my strengths is my ability to build strong rapport with a wide range of clients, and my holistic approach enables me to develop individualized, goal-oriented coaching strategies tailored to each client's unique needs. My clients learn how to enhance their inherent EF skills and develop the confidence to reach their full potential personally, academically, and professionally.
Special Needs

Special Needs

A graduate of Michigan State University with a Master’s degree in Developmental Psychology specializing in learning disabilities, Jim brings over six years of experience in therapeutic school settings and over twenty years at a private learning center.
