It's hard to watch your teen feel overwhelmed by time management, planning, and organization, especially when you know they're trying. Executive function coaching helps teens understand how to manage these challenges. Using personalized strategies, we focus on building skills like planning, organization, time management, and self-regulation in ways that fit their strengths and real-life demands.
Over time, teens gain more confidence and begin to take ownership of their routines and responsibilities with skills that support independence into adulthood.

Stride OT was created to support teens, young adults, and their families to build skills, confidence, and independence. Â
Lena is an occupational therapist specializing in executive function coaching. Her work focuses on building practical skills for organization, time management, sensory supports, and self-regulation in ways that feel realistic, supportive, and sustainable.
The goal is progress, confidence, and skills that support independence over time.
"Lena is a talented and experienced Occupational Therapist and executive function coach who is a lifesaver for exhausted parents and their children. She takes the time to really hear your child's individual needs and challenges to design systems that set up long term success. I was most impressed when Lena collaborated with my son's teachers to help set up classroom supports. She did so in a way that was thoughtful and tactful. Her experience in the school system has also made her a helpful guide as we navigate advocacy for our son. We are so grateful that we get to work with Lena."Â

"Lena brings a unique combination of compassion, practical experience, knowledge of neurodiversity, and a keen ability to see what is needed to help each kid/teen succeed, utilizing their unique strengths and helping them overcome challenges. She is a phenomenal OT but perhaps more importantly, she is a caring and competent professional. I have no doubt that anyone who uses her services will see the benefits of her approach and will also greatly enjoy working with her! "

My Philosophy
- Â Teens and young adults are capable, even when things feel hard.
- Executive functioning skills can be learned, supported, and strengthened over time.Â
- Meaningful support is holistic. Sensory processing, sleep, nutrition, connection, and movement all play a role in how someone functions.
