Work with Me

What to expect.

Coaching is a developmental process that is for everyone. By engaging in a Coaching Relationship with me, you are making a commitment to yourself and your own development. As a coach, I pledge to show up fully to be present with you along the journey, committing to understand what deeply matters to you, your strengths and where you want to experience growth and movement. The extent to which you realize change is directly affected by your commitment and engagement.

If you choose to work with me, you will participate in:

  • A 75-90 minute initial session during which we will more deeply explore your topic, what matters most to you in this topic, where you feel stuck, and what you desire in this particular area of your life.

  • A 60-75 minute session when I will offer you a draft of a coaching program that we will discuss and co-create together based on your needs, hopes and desires.

  • Subsequent sessions (approximately 45 minutes) during which we will focus on concrete ways to begin to make progress in your coaching topic.  The number of sessions depends on your specific needs.

  • A final session to reflect on and celebrate your coaching journey.

Sessions typically occur every two to three weeks with practices and reflections in between.

Examples of coaching topics include, but are not limited to: 

  • An upcoming difficult decision

  • Communication in personal or professional life

  • Discerning and taking next steps on something in your life

  • Stress and burnout

  • Effective leadership

  • Being more present in relationships

  • Navigating complicated situations at work

  • Developing self-confidence and self-trust

Through coaching, we will focus on the present, or “what is,” to help you move toward “what you want the future to be.” While the past may inform the path forward, coaching is not therapy and does not focus on healing psychological challenges such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, sexual trauma, PTSD, etc. Clients in mental health crisis or needing therapeutic intervention will be referred immediately to the appropriate resources.
