Mindlessly shuffling through life, without control.
Your brain’s been hijacked – but not broken!
Feel Like a Digital Zombie?
Take Back Control
Are You Losing the Battle for Your Mind?
Your brain is under attack. It’s being rewired for the worse by digital behavioral systems engineered to dull your thinking and exploit your distraction.
If you’re like most people, these assaults make you feel overwhelmed and overloaded, distracted and impulsive, foggy and ineffective. I used to feel that way myself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is brain coaching just for the elderly and people with brain disorders?
Absolutely not! Although I‘ve helped many people function better with ADHD, dyslexia, brain fog, etc., most of my clients don’t have any such biological challenges – they just want to improve.
How is brain coaching different from other types of coaching?
Brain coaching includes benefits you might get from other coaches, plus so much more. My unique specialty services include science-based ways to…
- Prevent and reverse digital “brain rot”
- Master your time and your habits
- Enhance your learning and memory abilities, including speed-reading and language learning
- Study effectively and easily pass exams
- Improve your sleep
- Upgrade critical and logical thinking skills
- Master your emotions so they help instead of hinder
- Deal with brain disorders or cognitive decline
Plus, similar to executive or life coaching, I can…
- help you better define yourself and your vision for your life
- keep you accountable to goals
- help you effectively make and assess action plans
- help you change mindsets or get motivated
- help you identify and overcome your personal walls, even the very deep ones
What does the time commitment look like, and how will we use it?
What you put in is what you get out.
Your session time is unlimited (that’s right!), so we can move quickly when things are flowing, meet right away when you get stuck, pause when you’re overwhelmed by life, and create as much accountability and support as you need. We’ll meet as often and as long as is useful, whether that means deep work sessions or quick check-ins.
Sessions generally include some combination of clarifying your goals and plans, evaluating their effectiveness, troubleshooting what hasn’t worked, training on powerful principles and tools, and practicing skills together so you get direct feedback and real progress. Between sessions, you’ll also have ongoing support for questions, updates, accountability, and new assignments, so you’re never left waiting or stuck on your own.
If you need a slower pace or lighter commitment, that’s available too. The result is consistent progress in a way that fits your life, whether that means you put in 30 minutes per week, or 10 hours!
Are you a medical doctor? Can you give me medical advice?
No, I am a scientist, not a doctor. As a brain expert, I might give suggestions related to how to optimize brain function, but these are only suggestions. I cannot and do not give medical advice.
Do you take insurance?
Unfortunately, I can’t, because I do not provide medical services. But you may be able to get your employer to cover the cost, or deduct it as a business expense if you’re self-employed.
