We’re in this Together

If we currently have LifeTutors coaches in your city, our admissions process from the first phone call to a coach at your door can take as little as one week. If we hire coaches in new territories, we ask for 4-6 weeks lead time if possible to assemble and onboard our certified coaches.

Call us at 828-417-7122 or email [email protected]. Our admissions specialist will schedule a time with you. If our services are a good fit we will guide you through our intentionally simple yet thorough admissions process: an application fee, questionnaires for yourself and your young adult The collection of prior treatment information if applicable & an intake with your young adult and our clinical director. Once our Clinical Director meets with your young adult, they will determine if our services are an appropriate level of care. If so, we will match or hire coaches, train if applicable, and begin services.

We are currently using two tools to track data outcomes: We use a number of measurables such as The Life Integration Wheel by Dr. Jared Dupree in our WholeFIT™. Our tools accurately and effectively _______ aspects of the young adults’ life as these relate to each goal and the overarching _______. We use these to both set and review goals as well as monitor overall progress. The Life Integration Wheel is applied with each young adult at specific intervals and organically in sessions

LifeTutors hires experienced, educated coaches with a background in social work, mental health, and education, who have worked with young adults in the past with a variety of diagnosis and executive functioning challenges. We typically partner with those holding a master’s degree and/or coaches with a clinical or related background.

Coaching sessions include but are not limited to a variety of executive functioning support in: Time management skills, home and personal hygiene goals, academic progress, budgeting and financial literacy, meal preparation and shopping, vocational goals, community engagement, family and peer relationships and personal development, and more.

Our services are prepaid and performed on a month-to-month basis. They can be canceled at any time. You are never locked into a contract with us. We do, however, ask for a three month commitment up front, and a thirty day notice of cancellation for professional best practices. We also ask for a thirty-day notice when terminating services before graduation for professional best practices with each young adult we serve.

We typically work with our clients for 8-12 months. This is the usual time frame for clients to identify and execute both short and long term goals yet this may vary depending on individual needs. Our team continually monitors the growth and progress of each young adult and we step down in levels of care (or how many times per week we see our young adult) as they build the confidence and skills necessary to manage independently.

LifeTutors offers coaching anywhere from two to five times per week. Coaching sessions last 60-90 minutes, and are in-person.

There are several key differences between LifeTutors and other coaching companies.

1. We are a nationally-accredited coaching service through The Joint Commission
2. Our services are in-person, nation wide
3. We are clinically informed: Our clinical team and other licensed professionals guides coaches and monitors progress
4. We include family updates and care coordination to the entire care team, including all ancillary providers
5. We include parent coaching in our services
6. Each young adult is paired with a coaching team consisting of two coaches along with our Clinical and Program Directors.

Our model consists of having two coaches in your area, in-person, to offer executive functioning and life skills coaching in real time. There are some instances where virtual coaching is recommended and this is determined on a case-by-case basis.

Independence and periods of transition present opportunities as well as challenges for personal and professional growth in the life of every young adult. Young adults with executive functioning challenges may find it difficult or even impossible to effectively manage these alone. LifeTutors provides individuals with the necessary real-time tools, skill and techniques to build their self-confidence, independence, and ability to be successful in all facets of their lives. Coaches go where other professionals do not- home, school, and community- wherever your young adult needs guidance, support and accountability. Trained coaches can help identify, employ, and evaluate tools and strategies that address your young adult’s specific needs and executive functioning skills- when and where they need it. Our coaches individualize their approach depending on goals, ability, capacity, and their motivation for change. Coach teams and clients co-create the lives young adults wish to see for themselves Real-time goals usually look like finding jobs, apartments or navigating the challenges of being adult housemates with parents or peers; academic or vocational goals, budgeting, home and personal hygiene, peer relationships, appropriate social engagement, prioritizing time management and so much more. We help our young adults by supporting them in each life domain to be happy, independent, successful, and experience a well balanced life. Goals are determined by the young adult themselves and our work is always customized to individual need.
