Some goals achieved by actual Leahy Learning clients…
The Leahy Method
A bespoke approach
Wherever you're starting from, we begin there. Individuals or entire organizations, each client is unique, so the work is never generic. The Leahy Method is solution focused. You will not be following a cookie-cutter program. It's much more than talking about your problems. It's built around you, with customized solutions we’ll adjust in real time.
I meet you where you are by listening. Really listening to your story. This includes your history, (the history of your organization for corporate clients), as well as what life is like in your current world, and the thoughts you carry about yourself and that world.
One of my goals is to help you realize there's no such thing as a "perfect" brain. Everyone has different levels of executive functioning and neurodiversity. Chances are high that you’re smarter than you felt when we first meet.
Together, we identify where you are, discuss where it is you want to go, and what you want to achieve. In exploring what has and hasn't worked for you in the past, patterns emerge. This provides clarity and reduces the feeling of overwhelm that comes with change.
I do an analysis of everything you shared, breaking it down: personally, professionally/academically, and across the lifespan. It will include your strengths and weaknesses, where you want to go, and what you want to achieve.
The more information I have, the more effective our sessions will be. I’ll read reports or examples of relevant work product you provide, and I’ll speak with individuals you believe can share additional perspectives and insights. Then I craft a specialized plan to close the gap between you and your goals.
Some tools we’ll use: active listening, Socratic questioning, goal-setting, behavioral activation, skills-based coaching, Metacognitive Strategy Instruction (MSI), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
We’ll work to combine the tools, strategies, and processes to fit what you need, based on how your brain works in your environment(s). Simultaneously you’ll be working on your goals.
All of this is easier if you believe you’re capable. Which is why I built Leahy Learning at the intersection of education, psychology, coaching, and mentoring. I’ll support you in ways that build confidence and motivation. Ultimately this empowers you to embrace change, take action, and make things happen.
