Research Findings: The Positive Impact of Coaching on College Students
with ADHD/LD 

Karen Boutelle, Landmark College 
David Parker, Washington University in St. Louis

DS providers often seek guidance about effective supports for students
with executive functioning issues who experience chronic difficulties
with time management, organization, and dealing with stress. In this
presentation, researchers will discuss findings and implications from a
recent study involving college students with ADHD/LD. Coaching supported
their emerging autonomy, helped them self-regulate, and promoted their
confidence about future success.
