Neurodivergent Affirming Tutor

Benjamin M.

Executive Functioning

As a national bi-lingual executive functioning coach and licensed psychotherapist (NY, NJ, CT and PA) for teens and young adults who are starting out in life or starting college, I bring extensive experience, training and personal experience. Failure to launch is a very real and very painful barrier to self-growth and my goal is to provide your teen or young adult every opportunity to succeed starting out in life. I graduated from New York University with an MSW and I graduated from the two year program at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy. I also attended the Ackerman Institute for the Family's couples and family therapy program, and I hold certifications from the Association for Autism and Neurodiversity and Modern Sex Therapy Institute, where I also specialized in neurodiversity affirming coaching and therapy. My style is warm, empathetic and structured. I help your teen or young adult become better organized, better able to handle tasks and focus and more confident in his or her social skills. As an Executive Coach for those with neurodiversity issues, I focus on results, including: ensuring specific goals are clearly defined and accomplished, planning and prioritizing that deadlines are met, enhancing core Executive Functions including organization, time management, focus, working memory, and task initiation, boosting self-confidence through actual results. On a social level, I help build skills leading to greater self-confidence, create meaningful relationships in all areas of life and help improve emotional challenges such as self-restraint, emotional control and stress tolerance, all important Executive Functions to master. I bring a true appreciation for the pursuit of self-growth that my clients bring to our work and look forward to being of help!
