Dissertation coaching is a service designed around your needs to help you successfully complete your dissertation or thesis once and for all.

Dissertation coaching is a system of structuring the dissertation or thesis process to increase productivity, so you make consistent and tangible progress.

Dissertation coaching helps you identify and change beliefs and behaviors that interfere with your motivation and productivity.

Dissertation coaching involves providing meaningful accountability and a significant avenue for solving any problems or issues that interfere with your progress.

Dissertation coaching provides you with the support you need to get motivated, stay motivated, and manage the inevitable challenges that arise during the dissertation process.

Dissertation coaching can help students in the humanities, social sciences, and the hard sciences at any stage of research.

Dissertation coaching is delivered by telephone, Zoom, FaceTime or WhatsApp. We work with graduate students throughout the USA and overseas.

Initially, we design your dissertation, chapter by chapter, that includes a master timeline and weekly action plans to help you develop: 1) a sense of how long it will take you to finish and 2) a clear set of dissertation tasks you can complete on a weekly basis.

We meet with you every week to review your progress, coach you to overcome internal and external challenges, and set new goals.

As dissertation coaches, we help you maintain an accurate and realistic work plan to keep you on track.

We provide unlimited email and/or text communication as a way to support you, intervene when problems arise, create a sense of accountability, and keep you on task.
