Create opportunities for individuals to become the best versions of themselves
Executive Function Coaching equips individuals across all age groups – from children to seniors – with essential tools to master important executive skills to plan, initiate, and complete their goals.
These skills include:
Our Executive Function Coaching can also include academic support.
We are also happy to support parents by offering coaching with the strategies their child is learning so they can practice these important skills at home.
A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO BUILDING EXECUTIVE SKILLS
We provide frameworks to tackle important day-to-day skills such as attention, planning, and time management.
We work on managing nutrition, activity, and sleep because they’re essential for lifelong success and independence.
Reflective thinking is built into our sessions to increase self-awareness and regulation of one’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

I have always believed every student can achieve their goals with the right tools and support.
I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education and History from Lake Forest College and a Master’s Degree in Special Education from Santa Clara University. I have completed a graduate certificate program in transition to adulthood to help teens navigate the jump from high school to the great world beyond. I am also finishing a certificate program in Educational Therapy to further support the work I do.
I am a cheerleader for the individuals I work with and aim to help them discover the pathway to the future that is ideal for them.

We were lucky to find Jana Parker and highly recommend her. She was warm, gracious, and didn’t patronize our teen (which a surprising number of professionals do). Her evaluation was quite thorough. Her report provided more than a diagnosis but also resources for us as a family. Months after her report was finished, I called her when I needed guidance, and she was incredibly helpful. Jana’s fees are on average with other providers (perhaps lower than most), and worth every dollar. If you need someone who understands what you’re going through and will walk with you through your child’s diagnosis and next steps, Jana is the person to call.

Jana Parker was fantastic through the entire process. She was great in making our kid feel comfortable, very prompt and clear in answering our questions on the process, and provided thoughtful and helpful suggestions. We really appreciated all the efforts she took to help and would highly recommend her to anyone.
