Hannah Mize, Certified Youth Life Coach
Is your teen heading to college soon — and you’re not sure they’re ready? Or maybe they’ve already started and things aren’t going the way anyone hoped?
Hannah Mize works with high school seniors and college freshmen (and the parents who love them) to make one of life’s biggest transitions feel manageable, exciting, and successful.
With a Master’s in Education and a decade spent as a school counselor, Hannah has walked alongside hundreds of students at exactly this crossroads. She knows what it looks like when a capable, smart kid hits a wall — and she knows how to help them find their footing again. After earning her certification through the Youth Life Institute, Hannah now offers dedicated one-on-one life coaching that bridges the gap between high school and what comes next.
Hannah’s approach is strengths-based and forward-focused. She’s not here to dwell on what went wrong — she’s here to help your student discover what they’re already capable of and build from there. Sessions are practical, honest, and tailored to each individual.
Hannah works with teens and college students on:
- Managing the academic jump from high school to college
- Building time management and independent study habits
- Navigating new social environments and roommate dynamics
- Processing anxiety, homesickness, and self-doubt
- Setting goals and staying motivated when momentum stalls
- Preparing emotionally and practically for move-in day
For parents, Hannah also offers guidance on how to support your student from a distance — without hovering, without worrying in silence, and without having every phone call turn into an argument.
Whether your student is a confident go-getter who just needs a sounding board, or someone who’s quietly struggling and not sure how to ask for help — Hannah gets it. She’s been in that room. She’s had those conversations. And she knows how to make them count.
“Sometimes you just need someone in your corner who isn’t mom or dad.”
