Apply With Confidence

College Coaching That Reduces Stress, Strengthens Applications, and Builds
Life-Long Skills for Career Success

My Approach

The college application process is often the first time students slow down and reflect on their strengths, interests, and goals.
 
I provide thoughtful, student-centered guidance to help your child make informed decisions about their future — with an online course designed to reduce stress and make the college application process simpler for your family.
 
My approach blends counseling and higher education experience to help students make thoughtful decisions and present themselves confidently.

I help students learn to:​

  • Understand their strengths and interests

  • Clarify their values and priorities

  • Make thoughtful, informed decisions

  • Represent themselves clearly and authentically in applications

​

This work is about more than getting into college — it’s about building skills that support students well beyond senior year.

Who I Help

I work with:​

​

  • ​High school students preparing for college

  • Students who feel overwhelmed or unsure where to start

  • Families wanting a structured, supportive approach

  • Students who want help presenting themselves authentically

​

Wherever your student is in the process, I meet them exactly where they are.

Ways to Work Together

There are two flexible options, depending on how much structure and support your student prefers.

Full 1:1 Coaching
(No Course)

"Leigh is fantastic! Applying to colleges and all the things that go with it are very stressful and difficult to navigate. Leigh helped my son so much with this process and was fantastic to work with. We highly recommend!"
