Coach-Mentors meet clients at home and in the community at a time and place that is convenient. Day time, evening, and weekend hours are available.

Achievement and goal-oriented, Coach-Mentors focus on getting things done, on accomplishing the task at hand and supporting success. It could be implementing goals or strategies identified in therapy, helping with organizing the multiple priorities of daily life or it could be doing something more fun and physical like a healthy fitness or recreational activity or job search.
