“We haven’t had a school induced breakdown in a while now. I was out of town this week on a business trip and my daughter had a big exam to prepare for, on her own. She did everything independently! I also noticed that she now recognizes when she is falling off task and needs to shift her focus.”

“Ms. B helped our son develop systems to stay organized, develop communication skills and accountability. She went over Google Classroom to ensure he wasn’t missing assignments, a task that caused much stress in our household over the years. When it came time for final exams they developed a study plan together so that he wasn’t overwhelmed. He had the best academic year yet! Ms. B was essential to his success. Hiring her was a life changing decision for our family.”

“We are so fortunate to have found Ms.B for so many reasons. Ms. B took the time to listen to what we were looking for. Her coaching style is flexible, kind, positive and inspiring. Our daughter feels supported, and is learning the ability to move forward independently. We would strongly recommend her coaching!”

Parent of a Senior in HS, Northern NJ

“I don’t even know where to begin praising Ms. B. She pours her heart all into every student and has given my daughter so many tools and resources to work with. She’s extremely knowledgeable yet continues to seek out more to support her students. My daughter does not like to be helped, but looks forward to Mrs. B coming to see her every week. To me that says everything.”

“My 6th grade daughter was struggling to manage her time and organize assignments, leaving her feeling overwhelmed and frustrated, midway through the school year . I reached Ms. B Key as I recognized my daughter would benefit from executive functioning coaching . We were connected with Julia Palozzola from the initial phone call Julia was compassionate and attentive. She was able to schedule an in person session quickly, and instantly connected with my daughter. From the first session my daughter felt heard, and understood . Julia provided her with some very simple strategies to begin implementing. Since she has been working with Julia, my daughter is less overwhelmed, and has a better understanding about how to approach her assignments. She looks forward to meeting with Julia each session.”

“Ms. Kristen Brazofsky can be a ray of sunshine cast into the darkness of any child’s challenges with organization, planning, goal setting, impulse control, and/or multi-tasking. I have a son with ADHD who not only struggles with Executive Function Disorder but also has a resistance to assistance. Fortunately, Ms. B. was able to connect with him in ways that many could not. Ms. B. is not only talented but also dedicated and persistent. She never gave up on my son, and her tailored approach sparked commitment from him and produced lifelong outcomes and understandings for him.”

Parent of a High School Student from NJ

"My son was experiencing issues with time management and disorganization. Ms B. helped us both. She worked with him (and me) to create new habits. She developed a rapport with my son that allowed him to be receptive to her suggestions, while also being independent enough to make his own decisions and to take accountability for his actions. There is an ease with working with Ms B. She was relatable to both my son and me."

Parent of a Middle School student, NJ

"During our first conversation, Kristen listened to my concerns, quickly assessed how to best support my son, and connected us with Jen. Jen not only understood the type of support my son needed but she took the time to develop a rapport with him so that he was receptive to her strategies. Their relationship was so positive that he looked forward to her coming each week and always felt empowered after their sessions. What more could a parent ask for? We are so grateful for Kristen and her amazing team."

"Julia has really been fantastic…. This is probably the least stressed I have seen my son during a semester, especially midterms, since he has started college. We already said we will do this for our youngest when he gets to high school. Game changer!"

“Ms.B helped me get unstuck during my transition into college when I felt overwhelmed. She taught me practical tools for initiating my tasks, such as pausing and reframing my thoughts to be more productive, as well as breaking down large assignments into smaller manageable steps. These strategies have completely changed how I manage my time and stress in college. One of the most helpful concepts that she introduced me to was the pairing/ break/ reward system which motivated me to stay consistent with my work. I also used to struggle to take notes in class because confusion would quickly cause me to spiral. However I realized the problem wasn’t just my understanding, it was the disorganized notes. I couldn't even follow along with myself when I looked back on them. Ms.B provided me with new note taking strategies and mindset shifting tools to keep me engaged in class, organize my thoughts and feel more confident in my abilities.”

I can't say enough wonderful things about Tierney. Over the past few months, she has made a significant difference in my son's life. He was really struggling with organization, staying on task, and keeping up with assignments, which impacted his school performance. However, Tierney’s patience, support, and expertise helped him build essential executive function skills that have greatly improved his ability to stay organized and on track. Tierney explained complex concepts in ways that truly resonated with him, making it easier for him to apply these skills on his own. Thanks to her guidance, his confidence has grown tremendously, and he feels more capable of managing his schoolwork independently. Tierney is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in her students’ success. We are so grateful for her dedication and the positive impact she has had our son's academic journey.
