Colleges and universities are facing an overwhelming demand for mental health support, but not every student requires therapy. Many can benefit from structured, one-on-one, goal-oriented support.

Providing an accessible, skills-based and preventative coaching program empowers students across the entire student body to navigate academic and personal challenges, stay focused, and build resilience. Whether a student is stressed about coursework, struggling with time management, or looking for guidance to enhance performance, coaching offers practical strategies to foster growth. By strengthening executive functioning skills, boosting self-confidence, and promoting proactive problem-solving, coaching empowers students to stay motivated, self-sufficient, and prepare for long-term success.

Join Cole Springer, Certified Emotional Well-Being Coach and Principal Coach at Mantra Health, for a discussion with coaching experts from the University of Kentucky and Marquette University on how institutions can implement non-clinical coaching solutions to expand their mental health services and support student success.

What you’ll learn:

• Why therapy alone can’t solve the student mental health crisis
• How coaching, an upstream intervention, improves student outcomes and prevents crisis escalation
• The role of coaching in strengthening executive functioning, self-confidence, and problem-solving skills
• Practical strategies for integrating coaching into campus mental health resources
• The benefits of two coaching pathways and what to expect from Mantra’s Executive Functioning & Emotional Support coaching program
