Unlock your toolbox, unleash your potential.

We empower kids with executive functioning tools to bridge the gap between what they know and what they can do.

We believe that all kids have the brain and the heart to succeed. Sometimes, they just don’t know how.

Through weekly in-home coaching sessions, Unlock equips kids with the executive functioning tools they need to succeed by focusing on two main areas:

Space

An organized and functional learning space tailored to your child’s needs sets the stage for success.

Skills

Personalized strategies fill your child’s EF toolbox, cultivating strong executive function skills for life.

Who we help

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses in their executive functioning profile.

At Unlock, we specialize in helping children in grades K-12 who are struggling with organization, time management, task initiation, flexible problem solving and more. We understand the ways that executive functioning demands increase from preschool through adolescence. We tailor our goals, materials and general approach given a child’s developmental stage.

Behind every door is a child waiting to unlock their potential!

There is nothing we ask students to do, from as young as preschool through high school and beyond, that does not require some level of executive functioning.

And yet, no one is tasked with teaching these skills! Let’s change that.
