Time Management and Productivity Â
How to be more productive?
At work, at home or while studying, there’s constant pressure to get more done. But how to navigate all the obstacles?
Procrastination. Perfectionism. Chronic Disorganisation. And lack of focus. All fuel frustration and undermine confidence. And if you’re affected by ADHD or executive dysfunction, the challenges may be especially acute.
As habits become entrenched, self-limiting beliefs get in the way too. There’s no end to the excuses we tell ourselves for not being more productive.
The good news is that organising and time management can be improved. Indeed, they’re skills that can be taught. With guidance and support, you can learn to stop procrastinating and develop strategies to improve focus. That’s the aim of productivity coaching.
Productivity coaching for students and trainees
At school, college or university, exams are stressful. Especially if you’re unsure how to revise. And preparing for professional exams, when there’s so much at stake, can be particularly daunting.
For teens, gearing up for multiple GCSEs and A Levels leads to immense pressure. For undergraduates, perhaps living away from home for the first time, university life is a huge adjustment. And for research students, writing a dissertation often leads to anxiety. It’s also tough for professional trainees studying for important qualifications while working and/or juggling other responsibilities.
Planning a study schedule. Dealing with distractions. Managing workload. Meeting deadlines – the challenges can seem endless. And uncertainty about HOW to study undermines motivation and self-confidence.
But fortunately study skills and time management can be learned. Productivity coaching with a study skills expert can make all the difference.
Discover how to get organised and prepare effectively for exams. And explore strategies that help you to study smart, not just hard.
In sum, you’ll gain more than academic or professional success. Because ultimately study skills are life skills too.

No. My role is to motivate you and support you, and help you think through your options, not to make decisions on your behalf. It’s your agenda! So you’ll decide which spaces we talk about, and you’re always in control of what stays and what goes.
With virtual organising, we work together over Zoom rather than in person. We’ll discuss your goals and motivation as well as the obstacles that you’re facing. Once we’ve come up with a plan, you’ll embark on the physical sorting and organising yourself, guided and supported by me throughout, rather than having someone in your home doing it alongside or for you. Many clients find this just as effective, and often more comfortable, flexible and cost-effective too.
Fees depend on the length of session, and whether you choose pay-as-you-go or a discounted package. I’ll talk you through the options in your free consultation, so you can decide what works best for your budget and goals.
Yes, certainly. I have specialist training in ADHD and chronic disorganisation, and many of the students and trainees I coach are neurodivergent. Drawing on research and years of experience, I’ll share a range of strategies and encourage you to experiment with new, more interesting ways of studying, rather than expecting you to fit a traditional mould.
The coaching approach is the same, practical, client-led and evidence-informed. The difference is really one of focus and starting point. This page is for anyone looking to improve time management and productivity, whatever the underlying cause. My ADHD and Chronic Disorganisation Coaching page is for those whose main challenges relate specifically to ADHD or executive functioning, where we may focus more explicitly on strategies tailored to how your brain works.
Fees are charged per session, with flexible pay-as-you-go options or discounted packages available if you prefer to book multiple sessions in advance. Costs vary depending on session length (30 or 60 minutes) and whether you choose individual sessions or a package. For UK clients eligible for Access to Work funding, this may cover some or all of the cost of coaching. Please get in touch for full pricing details.
Coaching and therapy are different, though they can complement each other. Coaching is solution-focused and very practical. We work together on strategies, systems and skills to help you manage ADHD or chronic disorganisation more effectively at work, while studying or in everyday life. It isn’t a substitute for therapy, counselling or clinical treatment. Nor am I qualified to diagnose ADHD or provide medical advice. If you’re also working with a therapist or other health professional, coaching can sit alongside that support rather than replace it.
As a time management expert, I like to plan ahead (!) so generally recommend booking 6 – 8 weeks in advance where possible. But I also appreciate spontaneity and can often schedule talks or workshops at shorter notice.
Fees depend on a variety of factors such as the format, duration, audience size and location of your event. I offer reduced rates for charities. Please get in touch for a tailored quote.
Every session begins with a conversation to understand your aims and audience. We’ll discuss the purpose of the event, together with the format, timing, audience size, venue or online platform, and technical requirements. Together, we’ll define the title and key themes for the session.
I’ll propose an initial outline of the content. You’re welcome to suggest additions or changes to make the session more relevant and meaningful. I’ll also ask about any access requirements or considerations to help ensure the session is as inclusive as possible.
Yes. The topics on this page are examples of some of my most frequently requested sessions. But if you’re looking for something different, such as supporting neurodivergent staff or students or creating a happier workplace, I’ll gladly discuss a bespoke presentation or workshop that addresses the issues most relevant to you and your organisation.
I offer bespoke sessions, tailored to suit your event, audience and objectives. Whether you are looking for a 30-minute school assembly, a 45-minute lunch-and-learn session, a 90-minute interactive talk or a half-day training workshop, let’s work together to create a session that is relevant, engaging and valuable for your audience.
No. Tutoring focuses on teaching subject content, such as maths, English or science. Study skills coaching focuses on how to learn more effectively. This includes planning, organisation, time management, revision strategies and the executive functioning skills that support independent learning. It can be particularly helpful for students who understand the course material but struggle with organisation, focus or exam anxiety.
There’s no need to prepare extensively before your first coaching session. Once we have agreed a date and time, I’ll send you a secure link to join the call, together with a brief document outlining my coaching terms and conditions.
It can be helpful to spend a few minutes thinking about the challenges you’d most like to address and what you hope coaching will help you achieve. Don’t worry if you’re not sure where to begin. We’ll use the first session to explore your situation, clarify your priorities and agree the best place to start.
There’s no expectation to arrive with clear goals. We’ll work together to identify what’s most important to you and agree on realistic first steps.
The coaching that I offer is client-led, strengths-based and practical. For ADHD and chronic disorganisation, we focus on understanding how executive functioning affects areas such as time management, organisation, task initiation and follow-through. We build on what is already working for you rather than focusing on deficits. And together, we develop strategies that are tailored, realistic and grounded in research and experience.
I coach individual students across the UK and internationally online via Zoom, or sometimes in person in North London.
I also present talks and workshops in schools, colleges and universities, both online and in person.
I coach students from aged 14 upwards who are preparing for school or public exams.
I also coach university students and adults engaged in professional training.
I work with students for a minimum of two sessions, which is often enough to introduce key strategies and begin to develop routines. Some students benefit from a longer series of sessions, while others return for occasional follow-up or review sessions.
After the initial sessions, I review progress with the student and agree next steps, with feedback provided to parents or carers where appropriate.
It’s never too early to develop effective learning and executive functioning skills, but I primarily work with teenagers, university students and adult learners. Study skills coaching can help students manage exam-related stress more effectively. It also supports a smoother transition to university and working life.
I’ve researched many approaches to time management and productivity over the years, and am constantly updating my knowledge of tools and techniques. From apps and appliances to books and blogs, I’ll recommend resources that suit you individually. I’ve also developed my own strategies that draw on current social science as well as lessons learned from professional practice. As a result, I don’t promote any one specific method. Nor do I suggest the same strategies for all clients. It’s more a fusion of ideas and suggestions that will help you devise routines that work best for you and your lifestyle.
Yes, as a declutter coach my aim is to help you shift habits as well as clutter. I need you to be present during visits at your home so that you can make important decisions.
Yes, since I regularly work with young people and vulnerable adults, I hold an enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) certificate, formerly known as CBS (Criminal Records Bureau) check.
After each session with a teenage client, I offer parents/carers a brief (10 minute) summary of topics discussed and suggestions for future actions.
I’ll also share tips for parents on how to help teenagers to become active, independent and motivated learners.
In addition, I run workshops for parents of teenagers to share more information about how to reduce stress before, during and after exams.
How many coaching sessions will I need?
This varies from person to person, depending on your goals and the challenges you’re facing. Some clients find a handful of sessions enough to build momentum and establish new habits, while others prefer ongoing support over several months. Coaching doesn’t have to be continuous, either; some clients find it useful to take a break to practise new routines, then return after a period to review progress. I offer a pay-as-you-go fee system, so you won’t be locked into appointments in advance.
Trust and confidentiality are key to my work. I will never tell anyone that you are a client; nor will I reveal anything about you or your household.
I hold a data protection licence issued by the ICO Information Commissioner’s Office and adhere to the Codes of Ethics of APDO Association of Professional Declutterers & Organisers, ICD Institute of Challenging Disorganization, and of ICF International Coach Federation.
Yes, I hold public indemnity and professional liability insurance from Westminster Indemnity. For a copy of my certificate, click here.
I can take away anything that can be donated to charity shops and will help to research charities that need specific goods.
For larger quantities, I can help to arrange for charities to collect. If you wish to recycle anything, I can offer advice about local facilities.
Clutter is a subjective concept – only you can decide how much of anything you need or want. I’ll ask questions to help you clarify what belongs in your life right now but I won’t pressure you in any way.
If/when you are ready to let go of anything that can be used by someone else, I can suggest or research charities that accept specific donations.
Don’t worry, my aim is not to throw your belongings away. In ten years of professional organising, I’ve never hired a skip!
I’ll treat all your possessions with respect and will never discard or donate anything without your permission.
I don’t personally sell anything on behalf of clients but share tips on selling online and at car boot sales.
I can also put you in touch with specialist dealers who may help you to sell particular goods such as silver or antiques.
There’s no need to buy anything before our first session so resist the temptation to invest in new storage products.
I’ll suggest low-cost storage solutions and will try to use crates, boxes, bags and baskets that you already own.
