GSD COLLABORATIVE: College!
program starts September 6th
Schedule your free 20-minute Q&A Chat now!
The GET STUFF DONE COLLABORATIVE is a semester-long small group coaching program designed for students to help strengthen executive function and self-determination skills needed in school and beyond.
Don’t schools provide services?
Yes, they do and we aren’t here to replace those school-based services.
In fact, we encourage students to make use of every resource available to them – it’s a recurring theme in our program.
Where we come in is helping students manage their resources.
This program targets the development and strengthening of lagging executive function skills. We focus on checking to see that students are connecting their specific needs to the resources best suited to support them, make the resource part of their planning, and follow through on using them (scheduling an appointment, finding the office, showing up on time) and can help them assess how it went and how to apply to future challenges.
Taking charge of your life is incredibly exciting – but there are suddenly so many details!?!
We help you create systems and strategies that keep you in charge – planning, prioritizing, and taking action in alignment with your goals and values.
The GSD COLLABORATIVE‘s 12-week program offers students two weekly opportunities for coaching, support, and accountability, for the price of one 1-on-1 coaching session.
Sessions are led by two coaches – Coach Kyra of Northern VA Coaching Solutions and Coach Lollie of Fast Brain Coaching – both trained and experienced in working with students with ADHD & executive function challenges.
First session starts soon!
Tuesdays & Sundays – 9/6 thru 12/4
(off the week of Thanksgiving)

This 20-minute, free chat with Coach Kyra or Coach Lollie is your opportunity to explore how the GSD Collaborative can support you through this semester.
The GSD COLLABORATIVE helps students build a stable foundation for academic success, and identify their strengths, interests, resources & tools they can leverage to meet their goals – both academic and personal.
$1500 per semester
More Affordable – two hours of coaching and accountability each week for less than the price of one 1-on-1 coaching session.
