Susan Lasky Organizing & Productivity Solutions

Life & Business Coach, Master ADD/ADHD Strategist

Ossining, NY

914.373.4787 • [email protected] 

SusanLasky.comPowerPlanToSuccess.com

Certifications: Board-Certified Coach, Senior-Credentialed ADHD Coach, Edge-Certified Student Coach, Holistic Time-Mastery Coach, Productive Environment Specialist, Certified Career Services Specialist, Trained Organizer-Coach, Level II Specialist in Chronic Disorganization, Golden Circle Member, National Association of Professional Organizers

Years practicing: 20+

Tell us about your practice: I help the overworked, overwhelmed, disorganized or time-challenged get out of their own way and get things done—not by struggling, but by learning practical strategies that work with the way they think. I teach new ways to self-motivate, focus and effectively take control of time, priorities, projects, paperwork, attitude, space and “stuff.” Together we explore how to clarify and accomplish their goals, increase productivity, reduce stress, renew energy and transform the way they think, work and live.

Specialties: Helping clients become more productive and organized—especially those with ADD/ADHD or executive function challenges—so they gain the time, energy, skills and focus needed to grow their business, succeed in school or at work, balance work/home/self-care, and maximize their unique potential. I work by phone, by Skype or on-site, and I also have group programs.

Major goal: I’m on a mission to help my clients (and myself) reduce the climate of chaos and guilt over what doesn’t work (often those tasks perceived as “easy”) and find doable strategies to overcome overwhelm, get things done, and live a life they love.

Professional passion: I want people to stop beating themselves up over their perceived failure to live up to what they think they should be, to accept and embrace their unique selves (challenges and strengths), and to uncover the mindset and strategies to accomplish what they really want, creating a totally fulfilling life.
