Crush test-taking anxiety with coaching from Elizabeth
What is Test Taking Anxiety Coaching and how does it help?
Elizabeth has an exceptional track record in helping clients overcome test anxiety and achieve higher scores by leveraging brain science and neuroplasticity. Her approach draws from neuroscientist Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor’s Whole Brain Living, particularly focusing on the four brain “characters” and teaching clients how to understand and work with “Character 2,” the emotional and reactive brain state often responsible for anxiety and self-sabotage.
Unlike traditional test preparation programs, Elizabeth’s coaching isn’t about academic strategies—it’s about rewiring the brain to reduce or eliminate test anxiety altogether. By helping clients understand Character 2’s role in triggering stress and negative self-talk, Elizabeth provides tools to calm this part of the brain and strengthen connections to more constructive and focused brain states. Her work empowers clients of all ages—children, teens, and adults—to overcome subconscious limits and reach their full potential.

Kate P. "My son was struggling with the SAT Math 2 subject test despite being a good math student. He was regularly only able to complete 40 out of 60 questions on the practice tests, and of those he completed, he was getting almost half of them wrong.
I had him take 11 sessions at Right Brain University. Elizabeth put him into balance using acupressure points, then had him do Brain Training while working on math problems. Two months later, he took the SAT Math test. He was able to finish the test and came out feeling much more confident about how he'd done. We waited for results and were stunned when we learned he'd gotten an 800. He couldn’t have done it without Elizabeth. As a side benefit, his grades went up as well after working with her, and he got into college early decision."
Joan V. "Elizabeth is an incredible healing person. She helped me pass the California bar exam after I'd failed. She gave me exercises and other tools to help me work towards my goal of synthesizing and analyzing information I needed for the exam. She helped me develop that goal and all of our sessions supported the goal. She helped me to focus, de-stress, sleep soundly, and access rules that I had memorized over 6 months prior but since I was working full time, didn't have time to redo starting from scratch. She helped me with my test anxiety, lack of confidence, accessing my memory, and creative thinking and writing - the skills I needed to hone for the bar exam. Since then, I have continued to work with her to help me deal with anxiety and PTSD. I continue to work with her because she's an amazing healer, mentor, and all-around wonderful person. I can't recommend her highly enough."
